If you were giving out All Stars at this stage, who would be shoo ins ?

I thought the Sunday Game lads were more or less spot on, with some very hard calls. I'm not sure if 3 Tipp lads will get one, but if they do it will be Cummins, O'Mahoney and McGrath. McGrath might lose out to Cha and Lyng, but he shouldn't. John Gardiner will also feel hard done by if he doesn't get one, but in fairness Walsh and Delaney were brilliant in the biggest games of the year.

The forwards was a good call as well, I think. Shefflin, Brennan and Larkin deserve one, but Gorta, Fogarty and Richie Power have been muted in comparison, even if they've done nothing wrong at all, and Gorta got through a savage amount of work. I'd love to see Mullane get one, but I think, again the Sunday game lads might be right here with Ben O'Connor, Eoin Kelly WD and Joe Canning getting one. By rights, really, Mullane should sneak one ahead of Joe.

So, My All Stars are


Cummins

Kavanagh   Hickey    Tyrell

Walsh    O'Mahony   Delaney

      Cha      Shane McGrath

Ben O'Connor King Henry Eoin Larkin (POY)

Brennan Kelly (WD) Mullane

Mullane really deserves one - he stood up even on that day against Clare.

Not a bad stab at it at all.


Always thought Cummins was a sure thing.
