Kerry's senior football selectors are to stay on for another season, despite initial indications after the All-Ireland final defeat to Tyrone were that they were ready to step down.

Manager Jack O'Connor has already confirmed that he will remain in the Kingdom hot-seat, and Ger O'Keefe, Johnny Culloty and trainer, Pat Flanagan, have now followed suit and committed their future to the county.

O'Keefe said: "I suppose it came down to unfinished business.  Our first reaction was to go leave it to somebody else, but then you think there was only a score in it at the end.

"Tyrone have improved dramatically from 2003, so have we. But the bar has been raised higher every year to the point that I don't know where it's going to end."
