Very hard to pick cause you leave out players with great seasons behind them. Sean Finn Hew Lawlor Cathal Barrett Brendan Maher Paudie Maher Ronan Maher Very Tipp heavy but you can't leave them 4 Tipp lads out of the team they've been outstanding all season imo. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 23/08/2019 11:29:08 2228732 Link

Replying To logger: "Sean Finn Liam Ryan Cathal Barrett Brendan Paudie Ronan" All 6 are nailed on for me. Lawlor has a good year but conceded a little too much albeit against all the top forwards. Padraig Walsh's form dipped a little I feel as the year went on. Matthew oHanlon for me is the man I'd have very close and I wouldn't argue if he got in at number 6. tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 23/08/2019 21:23:33 2228890 Link
Also honorable mention to Chris crummey who I think has turned into an exceptional hurler. Unlucky for his prospects that they didn't get further in the cship tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 23/08/2019 21:25:04 2228891 Link

Finn Ryan Barrett Maher Maher Maher Special mention to O'Hanlon who almost made it in Thought it was a bit harsh too to not have Hannon in the nominees Breezy (Limerick) - Posts: 1236 - 24/08/2019 13:09:52 2228997 Link

It is beyond me how the Sunday Game didn't have Liam Ryan at full-back on their team. StoreysTash (Wexford) - Posts: 1729 - 27/08/2019 12:51:54 2229768 Link
