All-Stars 2024

[Look-Up!]

Mogan had a good year but shoe horning him in at corner back in place of McKay was unfair.  If they wanted to get him in the team put him at 7 instead of Lennon.  Morgan is the best keeper in ireland for sure but him get the all star over Blaine shouldn't have happened(In that case just give Clifford and Fenton an all star every year) Morgans team was out out in preliminary quarter final and Hughes was excellent all year in the best team in Ireland that year.

100% agree. His team out in Ulster semi too and average enough league so it's not as if there's even provincial honours to back up his award. Very strange award.

Not sure about Morgan or the other Louth lad, both were out early doors. Maybe abit spread out but if they going look at the entire year, they need be doing that every year.

Mulroy is maybe unlucky. Wrong Louth guy perhaps...

The recency bias of the railway cup has done Morgan a massive favour

And that all the other keepers were middling enough.

Novelty can play a big part in the All Stars so Louth putting in a shift in a provincial final, something rarely seen in Leinster, and getting to AIQF, I can see the logic in rewarding someone from the wee county.

But Morgan is a real head scratcher. Very ordinary year for a team with pedigree and AI medals in the arse pocket and bagfulls of previous All Star awards too for the county.

6 games, 5 clean sheets.
Another excellent year out the field.
Morgan not a bad shout.

He isn't getting near that half forward line. Maybe for one of the inside forwards.

This may be odd from an Armagh man but I really like Morgan. Great keeper. I just don't think he was the best this year and combine that with Tyrone's poor year overall i don't think he should have got it over Hughes. The recent inter provincials could have played a part too.

Yeah agree with this. Morgan is a serious footballer but didnt deserve it over Blaine.

Soupy and Joe McElroy not even getting nominated told me all I need to know anyway.

Cluxton had 6 clean sheets out of 7 maybe he should have got instead?

Everyone keeps saying 'team'... These are individual awards. Morgan in the games he played was by a distance the best keeper in the country

Not sure clean sheets as a measure of performance means anything in Gaelic, you could have a clean sheet and not saved a shot

He was probaly the best at everything bar stopping the ball from going into the goals.

For me in the games he played, he showed he was the best keeper. His impact on outfield play is unrivalled, as his passing is up there with the top 4-5 players in the country.
That said, due to the untimely demise of his county team, I can see why people don't think he maybe played enough to deserve it this year. Can see both sides tbf.
