Paul Geaney is disappointed that Kerry didn't make it through to the last four of the national football league.

The Kingdom narrowly missed out on a semi-final place and have no competitive match now until June 14th, when they will travel to either Waterford or Tipperary for a Munster SFC semi-final.

"It has been up and down, you know," Geaney notes in The Irish Times. "It's been disappointing largely. We didn't hit our targets so we are just going to have set new targets and train hard.

"We are a bit behind Cork and whoever else got into the semi-finals, we wanted another day out and we didn't do that. We had a couple of bad days out and didn't hit our targets.

"It is a concern but at the same time we showed great character in the games we needed to win or needed to get results in. So that's a positive."

The Kerry attacker, who hit 1-2 against Tyrone after coming off the bench on Sunday, adds that he was keen "to get as many games as I can under my belt, itching to play. Now we have a bit of a break, I wouldn't mind if the league just continued but I suppose we will be back with the club now for a small while and get a few games there."
