Kerry have announced an unchanged team for Saturday’s All-Ireland final replay against Dublin.

It was expected that this would be manager Peter Keane’s decision, as the county attempt to thwart Dublin’s bid for an historic five-on-a-row and win what would be Kerry’s first All-Ireland in five years. Whatever changes he may have deemed necessary were always going to be left until closer to the throw-in.

As things stand, though, there is no start for Killian Spillane, Tommy Walsh or Jack Sherwood, all of whom impressed off the bench two weeks ago.

Dublin are expected to release a selection around Saturday lunchtime.
