Captain Obvious

O'Shea played nearly all the second half as extra defender.

He wouldn't push big Neilly Gallagher about.

He may not but Gallagher isn't even assuredly the best midfielder on the Donegal panel, nevermind in the country.

Carlow's Brendan Murphy is the best midfielder in the country.
There's Seán Brady going in, what dya think Seán?

Thought they were both very good and complemented each other well but Givney will probably get player of the tournament from what I've heard.

You would have to say that O'Shea has been consistently good for a few years now and is up there as one of the best in the country. For me he would be ahead of Givney although if Givney maintains this form that may need to be re-assessed. Most of the best midfielders at the minute are all early 20's and we could be getting back to the Whelan, O'Se, McGrane era of great midfielders.

Very good player, but poor discipline.

Brendan Murphy isn't even the best Brendan Murphy on the Carlow panel, never mind the best midfielder in Carlow. (Did I do it right?)

He's in the conversation but being a very good footballer on a bad (note bad and not even average) team will always add to how good you're perceived to be. O'Shea's been doing it for one of the top four teams in the country against the best teams in the country and that's a harder earned achievement.

Few of DIT panel will be there next year, not sure if Givneyy if will be.  Think he is doing a Masters.He was in Sligo IT for the last 4 years before this year.

Darren O Sullivan and Tomas O Connor will be there, Brian Menton aswell,. Think Mark Collins will be gone, he was in UCC previously.

Aidan O'Shea ...... he's easily the best midfielder in the country right now, on top of his obvious physical advantages he's improved considerably as a passer and a scorer from distance - or on goal as was the case today.

What age is Darren O'Sullivan ? Is he not a bit old for school?

27, its his first year back, so he could be there until he is 30. Suppose depends how long the course is. Tomas O Connor is 27/28.

O'Shea was the best midfielder on show yesterday but not today Givney was. Even at minor level AOS stood out but it's still unknown what his best position is. Jason Doherty without a doubt was DIT best forward in Sigerson can he keep his good form going? i thought todays final was going to be a closer game though DIT strong defence & well taken goals made sure it wasn't.

Not many teams have won the league & Sigerson double. Well done to DIT on a fine achievement.
The key to success is to be consistently competitive -- if you bang on the door often it will open

Tis no wonder so that he was being courted so furtively by a county thats often in the media.
