Looking for crumbs of comfort I guess but the fact that Cillian got an award is some consolation -- for me anyway.
I'm glad to see he has re-discovered some of his old form at last. He went through a few bad years where he spent more time niggling and tripping and generally acting the maggot. He got the gate a few times and he could have been sent off a few more.
But, IMO anyway, he redeemed himself this year. He may not be in contention for an All-Star again or at least there won't be many more years to be in the running, so it's good to see him doing himself justice this year.
