Aidan O’Mahony and Kieran Donaghy have been through thick, thin and thick again.
The Kerry stars have amassed nine All-Irelands, six National League titles, 18 Munster titles and five All Stars between them. They’ve been in the trenches together and they’ve climbed those Croke Park steps together.
It hasn’t always been easy though…
Like when O’Mahony snotted himself in 2007
And insisted on playing ‘skins’ during International Rules training
Or they were both dropped in 2013
Which made 2014’s Sam Maguire win all the sweeter
And now more challenges await.
This weekend, Donaghy’s Tralee Warriors take on Swords Thunder in an absolutely crucial basketball match. 24 hours later, O’Mahony is up against some stiff competition in Dancing With The Stars.
So, there was really no way of getting behind both Kingdom heroes than by getting the students of Mounthawk Secondary School to star in this remarkable promo video.
It all begins with Donaghy and the Warriors doing their thing on the basketball court and when O’Mahony shows up, well, things take a turn for the bizarre.
Another big weekend for two of Kerry’s finest sports stars.
