While the mercurial David Clifford has been earning rave reviews since his minor days, there is now a growing appreciation for the talents of his brother Paudie within the Kerry ranks.
The forward has developed into a key facet of the Kingdom's attack as they look to return to the big stage of an All-Ireland final with Tyrone standing in the way in Saturday's semi-final.
The RTÉ GAA Podcast put the spotlight on the Fossa clubman with former Kerry manager Éamonn Fitzmaurice charting Clifford's emergence into a potent force.
"Believe it or not, he wasn't ready at the time (when I was manager). He's a very talented sportsperson who plays soccer and is very low handicap golf," he said.
"He focused on his football and I think two things happened simultaneously for him that were huge in his development and pushing along.
"He'd been tipping around with the Kerry Juniors, playing a bit with his club Fossa and with East Kerry. But when East Kerry started to get stronger and go on the run, he began to take his football more seriously.
"And then the other thing was he won a Sigerson with UCC and I think that was a huge point for Paudie and he put himself in the shop window in the county championship in Kerry, which is what we often talk about.
"He wasn't on the squad in 2019, he was involved last year, was peripheral and came on late in the game below in Páirc Uí Chaoimh, got a couple of runs in the league.

"But he came back a different man physically this year as well. I think the lockdowns have probably suited him and other Kerry players from the point of view that there is always a huge amount of club football in Kerry as well as the county scene and in terms of physically developing, it can be challenging for fellas to have the time to develop like that. So he's in great nick.
"I think above else he's just in a great place in his personal life and mentally to really drive it on. He's been incredible this year and he's given Kerry something completely different that has been missing."
Fitzmaurice added that Paudie Clifford has helped free up Seanie O'Shea to move closer to goal with his movement without the ball.
"It is exciting for Kerry but it's from now on the tests come," he said.
"This is where Paudie is going to find out himself what it's like at the top level. He's not going to get the freedom of Croke Park on Saturday evening like he did in Fitzgerald Stadium for the Munster final.
"He has the ability and he has the temperament and the football to deal with that but this is going to be his first real test like that and I'm looking forward to see how he deals with that."
