Paddy Andrews will be unlucky to miss out considering the impact he had in the latter stages

Yeah, was fantastic at the business end of the season, unlucky to be up against McManus, O'Shea and Brogan. Most other years he'd be a cert.
Westmeath - Home of the Christy Ring Cup...

I think the fact that he has been around for a while now without making a serious impact until the last few games will count against him in the end. I think people will look at his displays at the latter end of the championship as having a couple of those days in a row where he was in white-hot form. If he is to pip anyone to a place it will surely be O'Shea who I'd imagine a lot of players still don't view as a "proper" forward for a full-forward line.

First couple of things that stand out to me is that O'Connor is nailed on for YPOTY and Tyrone have a wing forward spot in the bag, likely Donnelly.

Not 100% what the selection criteria are, I thought Fenton would be up for YPOTY but he's a certainty in midfield anyway. Good to see Wylie recognised with a nomination but as I say O'Connor has that sewn up.

After the nomination's I'd say the team will be:

Kealy
Enright
O'Carroll
McMahon
Keegan
O'Sullivan
McCaffrey
Fenton
Maher
Donnelly
Kilkenny
Walsh
McManus
O'Shea
Brogan

I hope you had money on that!

I would have had him in ahead of AOS
You can forget about Sean Cavanagh as far as he's a man!

Ha, I was just about to come on to say the team was fairly predictable and there were no surprises!

If I'd money on it the team would probably be different, that's usually how my betting goes.

McCaffrey winning the player of the year the only surprise, i would have him 3rd behind Brogan,McMahon.

Second behind Brogan maybe, McMahon got some ride on the hype train this August-September. I'd have Kilkenny ahead of him this year even on the Dublin team.

Its probably best to stick to the 3 nominations.

Because to win or finish 2nd Kilkenny needed to be nominated.

No one here is overally attached to the official selections. I couldn't care less what they are and it doesn't change how I rated Kilkenny's and McMahon's seasons.
