Hurling dream team - backs

Two of the full back line are currently the best in their positions in Ireland, the third had Eoin Kelly in his pocket for his career. Carey is an all time great, Hickey a multi position all star winner, and Byrnes to langer a few wides. It’ll do alright.

A fine balanced backline. I like the cut of it

Tony Browne is the biggest bargain on the board.

I’d say Mick Kavanagh is.

My logic was that corner backs would be worth less than full backs as there are more options for the corners and that the half backs would have more value than the full backline.

Kavanagh - Curran - R Maher
Corcoran - McMahon - Browne

I’ll probably change my mind in ten minutes

I remembered marking a very good player for Shannon Comp in the HartyCup back in 91, just checked on the newspaper archives there and it was Frank Lohan, wish I’d known that back in 95/97

What was lohan and davy fitz story . Nasty things were said to davy by lohan . Disgusting bullying .

Would you have pushed harder for the Cork panel?

I dunno would I want a man like that in my team .

I’m not going to talk about it, so I’m not.

I was a mediocre hurler at best, decent enough footballer

Frank was a very good footballer back in the day as well. Played in the 96 Munster final defeat to Kerry.

:joy::+1:

I didn’t see all of Browne’s career but I always felt there was the touch of the Ryan giggs about him. He was rated on his longevity as opposed to how good he actually was.
