Footballer of the Year 2007

[Croí na hÉireann]

Agree completely with the comment about Moyles over Cullen.  For me Cullen wouldn't even be in the top half dozen Dublin players (in no particular order get behind Cluxton, Henry, Griffin, Whelan, Ryan and B Brogan) this year much less Leinster or the country.

Again agree about Cullen. Dublins best defender this year was Barry Cahill though, head and shoulders above everyone else.

Christ I must be losing it - I agree with an Eastlongforder.    Cahill is going to find it hard to win an All Star in the company of O Se, O Mahony, Young, Spillane and O'Leary, which is very bad luck for him.  They'll probably give David Henry one to sell the papers.

[Croí na hÉireann]

If Henry gets one  If Tomas O'Se and O'Leary have good finals then I fear Cahill will lose out on a wing back slot. Marc O'Se has one of the corners sown up for me (and should get the footballer of the year). Other certs are Nicholas Murphy and Declan O'Sullivan.

U lost it a long time ago Billy

They should throw Cullen up into the forwards and put Cahill centre back. He was very good there in 2005.

Id agree with that
also agree with croi and billy

player of the year, either murphy of Cork or Declan OSullivan/Tomas O'Se of Kerry.
Tommy Freeman would deserve it no less than the above for such an exceptional year.

[Wee Roddy]

Those thinking of Cullen, O'Shea ,OMahonny, Cahill, Spillane etc are forgetting, and it is not just that I am from Tyrone, but Conor Gormley WILL get Tyrones solitary All Star this year so where do they all fit in? I think that Moyles will lose out and O'Shea is another certainty. It would he harsh to leave Ger Spillane out as well. Cullen in my opinion does not merit a nomination!

[oneillcup2007]

Conor Gormley and Sean cavanagh must be on the team. 

[paddypastit]

Lads - what are ye on!! Gormley has no chance and Cavanagh has even less of a chance of an All Star or Team of the year place.  There are only two credible candidates from Ulster for an award - McCloy and Freeman.  After that, no chance... and that is nothing to do with the fact that I'm not from Ulster - just plain common sense based on the season of football that we've had so far... and the final - the single most influential game when it comes to All Star selection - is yet to come

[Wee Roddy]

Oh you are so wrong. Conor Gomrley got man ofthe match while marking Tommy Freeman in the Ulster final lets not forget and he did not exactly cover himself in glory against Mark O'Se either.

Doea anyone else think Gormley has no chance??

[blanketattack]

Ulster mightn't have had any semi-finalists for the last 2 years but it's still the toughest province to win with at least 2 if not 3 tough games guaranteed compared to just one for the other provinces. Any team that wins Ulster should get at least one All-star automatically.

[Uladh]

Why would cullen even get a nomination?

Why would cullen even get a nomination?

it would be a fairly cheeky nomination alright 

[Maximus Marillius]

tom fool writing that with his rose tinted coloured glasses.

[supersarsfields]

I'll stick my head on the line and say I think Gormely will get one aswell. Canavagh hasn't a hope neither has anyone else in Tyrone. But I think Gormley's virtually held that Tyrone defence together by himself at times.
