GAA All Star Wars

We donā€™t even deserve the one token nomination

I hope the forums Austin Gleeson haters were choking on their cornflakes this morning. Cc @Bandage

Heā€™ll surely get the young player when he was nominated for both.
Iā€™d think Ronan Maher is more deserving than PĆ”draic for the POTY personally.

Unquestionably.

I have Ozzie @ 16/1 for poty but pp wonā€™t let me cash out.

Disagreeā€¦

I donā€™t care who was nominated for All Stars or individual awards.

Based on 1 game?

Much on? Can you back the other two?

Callanan, Gleeson, Hogan, TJ, and John McGrath all certainties for the forwards surely. Bonnar and Bubbles in consideration as well. Lee Chin is a decent bet for the one award thrown out to non semi-finalists.

Of course you donā€™t. Youā€™re from Wexford. I do though and it would be a wonderful achievement for a small struggling inner city club like Mount Sion if it were to land its second POTY award. But if we have to settle for a YPOTY that would be brilliant too.

No mate the awards are based on the season. Ronan Maher was, for me, the vital cog for Tipperary this year. Freed Padraic up to do the fancy stuff.

Good for you, mate. Glad the nominations announcement has put a little pep in your step.

Couldnā€™t see why TJ is a shoo in. Scored absolutely fuck all from play this year. Iā€™d have the Tullogher Tank in before him every time. Heā€™s had a super year.

He was only ok up to the final, of what i saw anyway. Spectacular Final alright and definite All Star, but i thought Pauric was more consistant

It certainly has. One more nomination than Kilkenny. Theyā€™ll have been gagging on their porridge in Slieverue and Kilmacow this morning.

My All Star Team

Murphy
Barrett - Barry - Daithi Burke
P Maher - R Maher - T De Burca
D Burke/J Barron - B Maher
R Hogan - Bonnar - A Gleeson
J McGrath - S Callanan - P Mahony

Maybe, but they almost always pick the likes of TJ. Media attention is almost as important as scores from play when it comes to the all-stars.

Honestly think TJ was so poor in the final rounds of the cā€™ship theyā€™ll find it hard to give him one.
