Quite a list here of brilliant sports stars. Of course, I will be hoping Cian Lynch wins the award but there are many others I wouldn’t begrudge if they got it.
To have two Limerick men competing for titles like this says a lot about how our year went.
I know they had to have a representative from the Womens hockey team, but the goalkeeper? Weren’t they bate about 7-0 in the final?
Has to be Sexton from that list of nobodies anyway. Apart from Thomas Barr all the rest of them are from niche sports with no more than a handful of followers.
Must try harder.
He’s right mind you.
Depends how you define a handful.
Big fan of women’s lightweight boxing are you, kid?
I think it should be given to a person from an individual sport rather than a team sport.
The team sports seem to have a lot of their own awards.
the lad from the gymnastics won a few golds. seems like a good shout
Love it. And the para swimming.
SINÉAD AHERNE - Nobody
THOMAS BARR Somebody
BRIAN FENTON Nobody
KELLIE HARRINGTON Nobody
ELLEN KEANE Nobody
CIAN LYNCH Nobody
RHYS McCLENAGHAN Nobody
AYEISHA McFERRAN Nobody
SANITA PUSPURE Maybe somebody
DAVY RUSSELL Are you kdding me?
JOHNNY SEXTON Somebody
JASON SMYTH Maybe somebody
KATIE TAYLOR Fuck off
85-90% of the population of Ireland would only recognise Sexton and Taylor from that list.
Who is Sexton?
You beat me to it. Probably plays cricket or something.
95% of all statistics are bullshit
Who is Puspure?
Dominant Puspure, she won the rowing.

Tyson Fury should be on that list
it’s not based on how many people recognize them, mate — it’s about Irish sports persons - if you dont like a particular sport, that’s a different topic… Each and everyone of them fit the criteria. Sexton will win it with ease.
Are you suggesting people will vote for Nominees they’ve never heard of?
