That was the main example I was thinking of alright tbf

Did neither of the Nash boys win one in the 90s?

No, unlucky not to.

Dinny Allen and Jimmy Kerrigan another two for Nemo

Jimmy Kerrigan, yes. Have a feeling Dinny Allen never got an All Star. Don’t have book in front of me now.

Hayes getting one don’t make any sense, he got Morrissey’s one I think

The barrs surely have 5

Thought MF/Semi/Final he was good… Not up to much in the round robin tho

When he played at 11 he was great but he was totally unremarkable when played in the FF line. He hardly played 70 minutes at 11 all year

He was good in the FF line v Cork, but that’s only Cork.

He was brilliant at 11 in the All Ireland Final

He came deeper second half v Clare if i recall correctly. And he did the same v Galway, he was brilliant second half. …but he could easily have missed out also.

Neither Hayes nor Morrissey did enough for one in reality. Morrissey was in poor auld form in Munster too.

Ah Hayes was excellent in the last few games. Got a few goals earlier in the year too

Absolutely.

It made the decision to not play him there for most of the year even stranger or even back to WB.
