NO one's quite sure how Paul Geaney expects to top 2025, but he's going to give it a go - this time as captain of Kerry. The Dingle All-Ireland winning skipper was formally handed the county armband Tuesday night via ratification at a Kerry County Board meeting. Tom ‘Gega’ O’Connor (a relative of the Geaney’s) and the great Paddy Bawn Brosnan were the only other Dingle club men to captain the Kerry senior team. Paul Geaney captained the Kerry minor team in 2008 and the Kerry U21s for two years before Jack O’Connor drafted him into the Kerry senior panel in 2011. ":Kerry Board delegates also ratified Abbeydorney's James O’Connor as Kerry hurling captain.
