Kerry keeper Diarmuid Murphy
Kerry 'keeper Diarmuid Murphy says he couldn't have had a better role model than former county netminder, and Murphy's predecessor, Declan O'Keeffe.
Murphy spent a few years on the bench as O'Keeffe's understudy but says he learned out in the process.
"Declan O'Keeffe was number one and he was a huge influence on me because he was basically the best goalkeeper in Ireland at the time," said Murphy.
"He was the best 'keeper in Kerry for the years he was on the team and it was a great learning experience to be watching him.
"You would be so impressed by the professional way that he prepared for games and training and how he looked after himself. I definitely learned a lot from him."
