I actually think he was way better this year than in 2018. He has gone up a few levels since then. Personally would have given it to Mul in ‘18, there was no real standout Limerick player as different players delivered in different games.
Lynch was probably MOTM in three of Limerick’s championship matches this year, if not four, though.
When we were under the pump against Cork the first day, he was the one player who kept us in it. Ditto the first half of the Munster final. Very good in the semi and absolutely ran amok in the final against a bewildered Coleman - 0-06 from play and 2-05 in assists. One of the great All-Ireland final displays.
Ciaran has form in fairness he called us winning the All Ireland in early June 2018 also said after the AI this year we’ll score 4-40 in a game next year. By the way the team this year would have beaten Galway by 20+ in 2018
The journalists notions have ruined many an all star selection. Aussie as HOTY in 2016 but the same player couldn’t get an all star in 2020 because he blanked the media.
Fair play. 2018 I still reckoned Dan was a filler type player, Lynch was gonna be the saviour, Tom would be one of the six forwards somewhere if not hugely impactful, and I thought Flanagan was miles off it. Dan and Flanagan especially have gone up several levels sinces 2018. Tom Morrissey has regularly been identified as the forward most vulnerable to be overtaken as a starter, including by me, and keeps proving everyone wrong. Arguably our most consistent forward, I still don’t know how he covers so much ground. I thought WOD should be a starter in 2018. Byrnes just needed to stop langering the ball wide.
