Kieran Donaghy has retired from inter-county football.
Donaghy made a statement expressing his disbelief and gratitude with the career he enjoyed with Kerry;
"The journey has been full of ups and downs but I never wanted it to end. It has surpassed even my wildest dreams, that a basketball kid from Tralee would end up playing 69 times in the championship over a 14 year period for the famous Green and Gold," he said.
"To every one of my Kerry teammates who I was lucky enough to have played with, I thank you for your patience, help and advice during those years. I’m blessed to have had the time of my life with you boys fighting on my back trying to win games for Kerry. We had some tough times, such is life but the wonderful stories and memories we shared will stick with me forever."
A little poem for ye. Thanks for everything @Kerry_Official pic.twitter.com/WIxl985gkL
