After a clean sweep of league, Munster & AI… 7 is a fairly meagre return.
Five for Kilkenny after being trounced in both a league and All-Ireland final is extremely generous.
Unreal for Byrnes and Hayes to both be selected four years in a row.

0-0 from play in the AIF for a second year in a row
That’s a soft one for TJ alright. It was evident all year that his legs were all but gone. It’s an exercise now in dividing up the spoils from the semi finals on. 2-3 for the beaten semi finalists, 8 for winners and 4 for losing finalist is more or less the formula now. 7-5 split Limerick v Kilkenny a bit unbalanced.
The likes of Lee Chin did more in Wexford’a relegation decider win than TJ did over the year. The days of players from the weaker counties getting an All Star on the basis of 1 or 2 Tour de France performances are long gone though.

Didn’t score a lot in leinster final or AI semi either
Barry Nash has no support on the selection panel . Odd

Nash has been hard done by. Himself and Adam Hogan were better and more consistent corner-backs than Mikey Butler this year.

I thought Nash was exceptional this year. Played a different role to last year. Made a few outstanding blocks and hooks.

Once he actually performs in a game where he doesn’t have a free role, then maybe he’ll get his respect
Yerrah have to give the weaker counties something to keep them going

In reality there’s only three of those lads that would be guaranteed starters for Limerick

Out of interest which three?
Great to see SOD getting such well earned recognition. The abuse he takes online from opposition fans has always been quite unseemly and it’s well earned for him and a great vindication for his supporters.
