Colm Keys: If ever a player has been designated for Kerry bench impact, it's 28-year-old Templenoe man Killian Spillane
Pat Spillane could have been cautious and played it safe. Instead, he did what he always does – he said what he thought, even if he acknowledged a certain bias. Sitting in St Vincent's clubhouse on Dublin's northside in May 2014, where RTÉ was launching its championship coverage for the summer ahead, the eight-time All-Ireland winner and nine-time All-Star made no bones about who he thought the best minor footballer in the country was at that time – his own nephew Killian, son of Tom, who was a four-time All-Ireland winner himself.

Tyrone vs Kerry classics - Red Hands win '03 semi-final
With Tyrone and Kerry braced to write the latest chapter in an intense and storied rivalry in Saturday's All-Ireland SFC semi-final, here's a look back at the 2003 All-Ireland semi-final, which the Red Hands won 0-13 to 0-6. A year after squandering a half-time lead to lose the All-Ireland Final against Armagh, the Kingdom were to endure an even more chastening afternoon as the Red Hands dominated the 2003 All-Ireland semi-final from the start despite losing talisman Peter Canavan to injury early on. Advertisement Tyrone's insatiable desire saw them hit the opening six points and the lead was 0-9 to 0-2 at half-time as the Kingdom had no match for the Red Hands' running game and ferocity in the tackle. One lengthy sequence of play in the first half saw Kerry's firstly Dara O Cinneide and then Eoin Brosnan, while in their own half, become surrounded by a posse of Tyrone players as they fruitlessly attempted to gain ground with ball in hand. A furious Pat Spillane delivered his verdict to the TV audience afterwards but there had been no doubting Tyrone's superiority on a day when Paidi O Se's side had no answer to the game plan devised by Mickey Harte.
