The Saturday/Sunday Game Thread

They should give HOTY 2017 to Seamie Callanan now for the laugh.

For a sec there i thought they would have given it to Gleeson. Imagine the scenes. :grinning:

Not one Leinster player on team of the year ā€¦ Itā€™s time to start calling it a crisis.

Yes.

McInerney can barely hit it out of his way FFS. Catcher and shackler of the year maybe. The equivalent of the MDMA selection in the football.

Pretty sure that that all played with Connacht in the provincial championship.

If Burke gets MOTM will he be the first captain since Tommy Dunne to get the award?

He has no striking at all

Canning clearly hurler of the year.

TOTY by Sunday Game pundits

Nash;
Tuohy, D Burke, Connors;
P Mannion, McInerney, P Maher;
Barron, D Burke eile;
Moran, Canning, Walsh;
Whelan, C Cooney, Horgan.

Galway x8, Waterford x4, Cork x2, Tipperary x1.

Iā€™d have Oā€™Keeffe in goal. Tuohy possibly fortunate enough. De Burca, Coen, J Cooney, Callanan, Patrick Purcell - among those a bit unlucky to miss out.

All 7 (seven) pundits went for McInerney as POTY (cc @Appendage).

Bang on thatā€™s why it was incredible that every last one of them on the panel picked him. Who was the alternative though? If Whelan had a decent game heā€™d have got it but he was totally shut down today. ā€œPauricā€ ā€œParaicā€ ā€œPaudieā€ ā€œPadraigā€ Maher would most likely have got it had Tipp made the final. But thankfully they didnā€™t. I suppose Canning could have got it.

Noted pal but one has to back oneself too. Amused that a lad that canā€™t strike off both sides is HOTY.

What? Connacht competed in a provincial championship?

Lester is apparently ordering rounds of shots at the bar with the RTE producer begging him to get back on the stage.

Only one for Cork (Horgan), no?

Daly having a right laugh at Tomas thereā€¦

Nash too.

Apologies @Bandage

Dalo with a lovely rub off Mulcahy there. Mulcahy the orange cunt didnā€™t like it either.
