Cork didn’t do near enough to get anyone close to an individual award. It’ll be O’Neill or Cody
Cian Kenny maybe if he is young enough. He really came in to the year
Jack Glynn and Lee Gannon from Dublin, dunno are there too many eligible outside of them
Joyce was centre back, and the best player on a Cork team that got to the AI quarter final.
Canning won it in 2008 and Galway were knocked out in the qaulifiers.
It is irrelevant when Cork were knocked out, Joyce still played 6 games - more than enough evidence to guarantee him the award IMO.
If O’Neill gets it, it’s a farce.
Yes forgot about Gannon. Yeah he’s u22 alright.
Better hurler in my view.
O’Neill featured in 6 games and scored 12 points, many at pivotal moment in a Munster and All Ireland winning year.
Cork lost to any decent team they played

Again you’re talking about a team, not the individual with respect to Joyce.
O’Neill scored 12 points in 7 games. He did not start most matches. That’s hardly enough to suggest he should win the award IMO.
Joyce, in every game he played in, was one of the best players on the pitch.
In fairness mate, it wouldnt be hard. Cork were septic
Kenny is eligible along with Mikey Butler.
O’Neill didn’t get enough game-time to get it
Giving it to anyone other than Joyce would be highly odd.

When is this going to be announced
Did CON play this year?
Jesus the Limericks want a sub to win YHOTY.
Things are bad but they arent that bad just yet
He played against Clare in the u20. Only for him, they were gone
He’ll have to console himself with Munster and All Ireland medals. There’s always next year.

Sometime in October
It will be Joyce. You can’t win it if you don’t regularly start, regardless of how good your team is. The standard has dropped significantly when you consider the previous winners ie Gleeson, TK, Kyle Hayes…

Its fallen off a cliff.
In 2014 when Cathal Barrett won it, the following were all also eligible and starting for their counties.
TK/Seadna Morey/Peter Duggan/Colm Galvin/Jack Browne/Austin Gleeson/Tadhg De Burca/Jamie Barron/Jake Dillon/Stephen Bennett/Colin Dunford/Shane Dowling/Conor McDonald/Liam Ryan/Cian O’Callaghan/Colm Cronin/Cathal Mannion/Johnny Glynn/Jason Flynn
But but but, something something S&C.

Of course its dropped. You’ve moved down to u 20s essentially. A completely different level to u21 which has a knock on effect at senior level as the vast majority of them regardless of talent/potential are undercooked
