6 nominations for Monaghan is a bit over the top for a side who were beaten in a quarter final.

5 nominations for Kerry seems fair by itself but compared to Monaghans 6 its totally unfair I think

None from Cork and one from Antrim. Corks stock has fallen over the past 12 months.

Firstly Cavanagh dragged a very below average Tyrone team kicking & screaming into the last 4. Secondly, if he is not being nominated in the position he played in . . . . the dont f&*kin nominate him. 6 Monaghan players to Kerrys 5?  Is this a joke! Honestly!! |

Congrats to JO'D and his family tonight, it will be a great night for them. James plays with a wonderful free spirit when he slips into the zone.
The Gooch stands on the threshold of becoming the most decorated All-Star of all time.

I think if a player does something memorable in the c'ship, they tend to get an All star. Or if they have a decent AI semi or final, they'll get one.
Aidan O'Shea - brilliant v Donegal. That was about it though.
Conor McManus - was that a token gesture after the Cavanagh incident? He did have a good c'ship though. Though I thought Cavan's Martin Dunne performed better (as did Cian Mackey, but he was unlikely to gain an award ahead of Cavanagh or Cooper).
6 for Monaghan was a bit much. Yes they had a tight defence, but they only really played well v Donegal. They were dire in the other 3 games.

Jack Mc caffrey had a more consistent season than Bernard Brogan. Paul Flynn didn't deserve an all star award. He is a very good player but not as good this year as previous. Cian Mackey I thought could get one. I also think Cluxton was lucky to get the nod.
It's impossible to keep everyone happy.
As good a player as Sean Cavanagh is, it's a mockery for him to get an award. Imagine the uproar if Galvin got a gong in the year he knocked the notebook out of paddy Russell's hand.

As I said, something memorable. Brogan 2-3 in an AI final. That's what most will remember. I don't think you can deny Cavanagh his award. He did play some great stuff. Galvin didn't deserve one that year because he missed most of the c'ship. Simple as that. |

I know he played some great stuff but was negated by his horrible cynicism. And I am sure you know what point I was making about Galvin. Even if he played a blinder in the Final that year (ala Brogan) you couldn't give him an award because of the outrageous act of folly earlier in the year..
Dublin could predictably have expected to have got 6 all stars, but not the 6 that they ended up with.

I only had one issue with the 15 selected and that was Cluxton. Nothing against the guy, if somebody wants to tell me he's been the best GK in Ireland over the past decade, then fine.....but this year? get d fu$k outta here!!! lol
Cluxton was nowhere near being the best GK in Ireland. Both the Mayo and Monaghan GK's were better GK and would have been more deserving.
Look again at his performance in the 2nd biggest game of the year for Dublin and tell me that's an All-Star worthy GK!
If the All-star GK is decided on ability to kick long range frees, then Cluxton it is!

Cluxton has to get the All-Star for his restarting of the game. He has bought this art to a different place.
BB did in the Final what you want your marquee forwards to do, i.e. step up to the plate and deliver, regardless of form going into the game. Teams tend to win when that happens.
I would have no issue with Cluxons and BB inclusion.
The All-Star concept was much more satisfactory when players were picked in the position they excelled in that particular year. Make the calls between, Cian O'Sullivan, Aidan O'Shea and Sean Cavanagh for example at number 9.

He was well beaten in the SF and final, in particular the SF where D Walsh really gave him a roasting. |

Fantastic achievement for James O Donoghue. 2-3 v the Dubs in the semi. He deserved it. Gooch was a no brainer. You couldn't argue with the rest either.Cluxton's kickouts and shrewdness as a n attacking goalkeeper got him the slot.

We will have to agree to disagree on that issue. Selection is over the whole season. |

He had a great year. |

Fair play to the Gooch and James O Donoghue on getting the All Stars,well deserved
Why wasn't James nominated for Young Player of The Year?
And well done to the three Kerry hurlers that also got awards,Bernard Rocford,Shane Nolan and Darren Dineen who were selected on the Christy Ring Champion 15.Hopefully we will see a write up about them on the site home page soon.
Fair play to them all.

I can't understand any football argument against Sean Cavanagh's award, he almost single handedly brought Tyrone to the last 4. The farce would have been his omission. He was Player of the year up to semis.I understand the anger against the foul play, but I wouldn't scapegoat him for a blatant rules weakness and not wanting to defend his actions it most likely brought forward in conjunction with the black card the addressing of this ugly element of the game. No way Mannion for me, the great goal aside against us he made little impact on a game that his marker Shane badly struggling. He got injured early in final, that was unlucky, many of his best performances were in the league. He's a very good player, will likely win All Stars just not this year.Donnacha Walsh was unlucky but not robbed as was Cian Mackey. Martin Dunne didn't have the ball enough to be All Star material.Ciaran Sheehan with more game time and Loughrey weren't far away. By and large to me it seemed fair enough

James OD has All Star quality certainly but I might have had D Walsh ahead of Flynn possibly with the omission of JOD.

Very well done to James and Colm. James had a great year and, for me, has always had that something that you want in a young Kerry forward.
Is that first All Star for Legion? By my reckoning, there have only been 2 All Stars from Dr. Crokes, Colm and Connie Murphy. Which Kerry Club has the most All Stars, would it be Stacks?

Dublin's younger generation faded as the summer progressed, it was Dublin's older hands that steered the ship over the line at the end of the day. I don't think any of the three, Mannion, Kilkenny or Caffery could have been given an All-Star at the heel of the hunt.

Had a quick peek at wiki (perhaps I should have done that prior to my last post!)
by my count Templenoe have 13,An Ghaeltacht have 17 (am surprised to see that Dara O Cinneide didn't get one) and Stacks have 24 (am surprised to see that William Kirby didn't get one)
apologies if I miscounted
