Dick Clerkin: David Clifford might have to accept his fate as the Rory McIlroy of Gaelic football

“Going forward, Clifford is going to have to accept his fate as being the Rory McIlroy of Gaelic football. Forever judged by the highest of standards.

“On Saturday, he was still Kerry’s most impactful forward from play and assists, yet the lazy analysis will suggest he was marked out of it. Akin to a top-five placing in a Major for McIlroy.

“Impressive for many, yet underwhelming when measured against their unsustainably high standards.”
