Dubs get 4!

[gaagaa]

If that is the team...then the only real issue I have with it is Whelan....he was outplayed and outclassed in the Derry and Kerry matches.
And he only played in spells against Meath. I just dont get why he's so highly rated when there are at least half a dozen better midfielders in the country.

Whelan destroyed Derry in the first half and then Doherty came out and dominated the second half...they both had their periods of dominance that day, was very impressed with Doherty that day but didn't see enough of him to know if he warrants an All - Star.

One midfielder I did see being outplayed and outclassed was Dara O'Se against Monaghan though...and he wasnt great against Dublin either...Shane Scanlon was far better

Dont think he deserves the All-Star

Dont think tha panel saw too many derry games-  f doherty most consistent player for derry all year - id put my money on him & cavanagh beating the all-star selection any day

Bensars is nothing more than a whinger. cluxton made one mistake all year. Whelan doesn't need to aplogise to anyone for a well deserved allstar particularly not to a  whinger like Bensars. Bensars would probably have himself ahead of Bradley-that's the sort of self delusion that is par for the course around here.

a discussion board is full of opinions. Just because its against your train of thought does not mean it should be dismissed.

i notice you failed to comment on Brogans all star? 

In regards to Paddy Bradley you will also see that i stated he merited an all star in previous years, not this year IN MY OPINION.


As you will see from previous posts my complaint is against the selection panel and its composition.

In regards to self indulsion and having myself in front of paddy bradley, what can i say ,nothing more than a crazy rant from yourself. i think  remark says  more about your self persecution complex than any grandures of self indulsion i may have.

I would also like to point your attention to the numerous other posters that seem to hold a very similar view to my own. Are they all wrong? Are they all whingers? Unlike the media that you may be used too, outside dublin we are prepared to make judements based on the information we see, not the pro dublin propoganda that fills the national papers

Someone that agrees with Whelan getting an all star is accusing others of "self delusion"?   

[Jinxy]

As usual, a Meathman has to stick up for the poor oul Dubs. Would the people giving out about Whelan getting an Allstar like to tell us WHO should have got it in his place? (We'll conveniently ignore the fact that Dara Ó Sé only got the other midfield spot so the selection committee could say "Wow look, 3 brothers got Allstars in the same year!")

I'd have no problem whatsoever with Doherty getting one.

bollox bensars - as usual the thrust of your rant is directed against the Dubs with a few add-ons to dress it up- spare the patronising for someone else. In keeping with the general derision towards the Dublin football team on this board. It' becoming quite childish at this stage. But its inherently  inkeeping with the siege mentality in ulster towards the dublin football team in general. So it's not surprising.

The world does not evolve around the Dublin Football team, whether im from Ulster or not. That chips getting bigger !!

I have to say i find this all very amusing . The outrage is highly amusing , how dare they give the Dub's 4 shocking!

At the end of the day Cluxton is the best keeper in the country by miles ,made one mistake all year and did a lot to keep the Dubs in a few games , their can be few arguments against Cahill, Whelan had a great season , I though O se was a cert and it was a came down to  Whelan V Murphy , Murphy was non existent in the final against Kerry so the balance was swung towards Whelan. Brogan is the only one i would say was lucky to get one .

PintsofGuinness

Name a midfielder who dominated a match against a top team for 70 mins???

[pintsofguinness]

i'm not talking about dominating i'm talking about playing!

[Gnevin]

i'm not talking about dominating i'm talking about playing!

This notion of Whelan not playing for 70 minute belongs back in 2003/4

[DUBSFORSAM1]

i'm not talking about dominating i'm talking about playing!

So when did Whelan not play for 70 mins or what do you mean play for 70 mins???
