All Stars of the Sunday Game era.

Totally agree, mup

Connolly hugely overrated

Totally agree, mup

Connolly hugely overrated

Hugely underrated, was the best player in the country for about 2-3 years running at his prime and settled for all Ireland's instead of individual player awards. Everyone outside of Dublin would disagree of course.!

Is Michelle Smith included in lists of the greatest Irish Olympians?
Is Lance Armstrong on the list of greatest cyclists?
Is Ben Johnson up there with the greatest sprinters?

No Dublin player should be included in lists such as this if they played in the doping years. Basically anyone who played this century.

You can take your pick of the half forwards now.
Looking at how the voting has gone so far, I'd say the HF line will be Spillane, Connolly and AN Other [but must be from Kerry or Dublin  ]

Connolly. 

I would pick at least 10 of that list before him - Cavanagh, Spillane, Connor, Canavan, Giles, Donnellan, Dooher, Brogan, Flynn, Murphy, Kilkenny.

I'm not suggesting I'd pick Connolly, just saying that given the way the team has been selected so far it's the likely outcome, with all three being from either Kerry or Dublin.

good point
I missed that piece of evidence

[Maroon Manc]

I think Connolly is overrated, ability wise arguably the most talented player in the last decade but we've not seen enough of it; He's ever been one of Dublin's most important players.

You missed a lot of things, you simpleton.

Connolly work rate is often overlooked .We wouldn't have won 2011 without him when he came into game in last 10 minutes after a poor 60 minutes. Between Gilroy faith in him and Jim Gavin in taking over in 2013 Diarmuid upped his game to next level in 2013-16. He made major impact off the bench in 2017 final and turned over David Moran for equalising point in drawn AI final last year. His game wasn't about scoring 1-5, he is a playmaker getting the ball into inside line. He still has impressive scoring record of 29-168(255) in 109 championship/league games for Dublin.

According to the Podcast the Voting for the half forward line so far is:
1. P Spillane 5,300 votes
2. P Canavan 2,600
3. D Connolly 2,500
4. M Murphy
5. C McDonald
6. M Connor
7. C Kilkenny
8. M. Donnellan
9. D O'Sullivan
10. T Giles

There are only 500 votes separating Canavan and Connor

Connolly third? What a joke.

Connolly third? What a joke.

Some people believe that he packs a punch.
