Kildare defender Peter Kelly was in a bullish mood when asked about Leinster SFC semi-final opponents Dublin.

This Sunday, the sides meet in Croke Park as Dublin look to continue their dominance in the provincial campaign.

The Dubs are red hot favourites to advance to the Leinster final, but Kelly states in the Leinster Leader that Dublin are built up to be more than they are in the press.

"Dublin are Dublin, every article is telling us how great they are, but if they were that good they would have won every All-Ireland for the last five years; they are not unbeatable as Donegal showed last year; we are going in to win, we are where we want to be; competing against the so-called big guns.

"Dublin won't respect us at all, they won't be expecting anything from us but we know if we can repeat our form against Laois we can give them a real go; if we go out with any sort of an inferior attitude that will show up on the pitch; it's all about belief and I feel we have that in the group now, we now know that when we do click just what we are capable of."
