Saturday in Killarney was a classic Munster Championship situation for Kerry.
Regardless of the nature of the performance or the result, it will be explained away. Win well, and Clare were useless. Win without shooting the lights out, and Kerry were off it. That is why it is so important for the inner circle to shut out all that noise. The only thing that counts is winning, advancing to the next round, and honouring the standards of the group.
