Earley to undergo surgery




Veteran Kildare midfielder Dermot Earley will undergo surgery to correct his knee problem in the wake of his side's heart-breaking All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Down last weekend.

Earley had faced a race against time to be fit for the game but despite originally being named in Kieran McGeeney's side, he was omitted from the team following a late fitness test at Croke Park.

The long-serving midfielder, now 32, faces a lay-off after going under the knife and it remains to be seen whether he will return to the fold for another campaign.



I don't like the sound of that "it remains to be seen whether he will return to the fold" bit, I think and hope he is having the surgery now to give him the maximum amount of time to recover for next year.

He'll be back alright. I'd be fairly certain of that.

He certainly won't feature early next year but I'd be shocked if he wasn't back on board and motoring along nicely by next May.

dermot will back .

course he will be back,will ya stop!!!!
wens the op???
will be badly missed for sash's push towards the championship!!

Looking forward to himself and Mikey Conway combining again next year.
