Kerry full-back Kayleigh Cronin explained how she left the field in tears after one League game.

Kerry's Kayleigh Cronin has revealed how the 2024 season was one of her “least enjoyable” despite the county’s first All-Ireland success in 31 years.

“I was coming out of every single game hammering myself, saying like… I just couldn't find form basically. If you told me in even May that I'd finish the year with an All-Ireland medal in my back pocket, never mind an All-Star, I would have laughed at you. But I'd go through it all again no bother if you told me it would be the same outcome next year.”

“I just felt so bad about how I was playing and how I was contributing to the group. So I did a lot of work with Claire and had a good few chats with the lads and stuff as well, just to find form and find different bits and bobs that I was doing to feel positive about. There were rumours that the pair would step aside in the aftermath of last year’s final defeat to Dublin but the group remained intact and they finally bridged the gap to 1993 with a comfortable win over Galway in the decider.
