The All Ireland semi-final between Kildare and Monaghan was the first meeting between the teams. Kerry won all their League games (7-0) and all their Championship games (4-0). In other words, they had a perfect season. As of 2026, there have only been 2 perfect seasons: 1929 Kerry and 1932 Kerry. References All-Ireland Senior Football Championship
