2010 All Stars

[Dinny Breen]

Bearno player of the year...

MC too much hype not enough substance for my liking, Down needed a leader today and he couldn't find a way out of Noel O'Learys pocket..

All-Stars should have a good spread this year...Donnacha O'Connor, Sheilds and Aidan Walsh nailed theirs today, Cadogan and O'Leary made big cases as well...

If Aidan Walsh learns how to kick the ball over the winter he'll be some player next year.

How old is he btw?

[Jinxy]

He's only 19/20 I think.

Jaysus, some future ahead of him..

I think danny Hughes nailed an all star after today, never stopped trying

He should be a cert but he could lose out. In my opinion Down's most effective forward this year.

Could lose out to who? He was definitely a contender for man of the match today.

Really, Cadogan? Couldnt see it at all. That was his first ever championship start for Cork and wasnt overly impressive in his substitute appearances against Kerry.

Cathal Creggs nomination is joke, he played one good game and gets one, FFS costello played several good ones and was way more deserving imo.

I would of given Donovan the nod ahead of Harrison, Donovan is a better defender by a fair bit, Harrisons bursts forward mask his frailities.

Kelly and Shine are deservng and Shine shouldnt be too far away from young player of the yr.

Hope Galvin, Keenan, Doyle and Coulter get one.

[ross4life]

Yes forgot about costello! his best game was in the Connacht final, clearly the Gaa didn't what to nominate any more than 2 players from Sligo/Roscommon & Donovan was better

If that was there thinking i would of had Claffey in ahead of mcconnell, and donovan ahead of Harrison, and cregg out altogether. I doubt any will get anyways but it just to me shows there lack of knowledge of the game.

How does all this work anyway, who are the selectors? How many people pick the allstars, is it majority rules?

Funny thing when watching the Sunday Game, and team of the yr, is all the players, managers tell you the Sunday game doesnt matter and that panellists havent a clue, but yet when team of yr is pick all the Cork players glued to the big screen in the burlington. When things are going great the pandering and validation seeking is full flow.
