not only will Callanan be hurler of the year tiobraidArann (Tipperary) - Posts: 362 - 13/08/2014 12:24:23 1636207 Link 0 |
HOTY for me is between Hogan and Reid, wouldn't surprise me if Hickey, Harnedy and Cadogen get nominated. Gavin94 (Limerick) - Posts: 77 - 13/08/2014 12:27:43 1636209 Link 0 |

Ritchie, I hate stating the obvious, but I made that list in June. '12/06/2014 at 12:43:09' to be precise. I (like most) expected Clare to give a better defence of their title and did not expect Dublin to be so poor. I agree the likes of Hickey, Chin and Dowling have had exceptional years and will be in the running for All Stars, but, are any of them realistically going to get POTY? No. And if I may say so that list looks pretty accurate at this stage with TJ Reid, Patrick Horgan, Richie Hogan, Seamus Harnedy, Patrick Maher and Colin Fennelly all in the running for POTY.

Richie.... Guru's list is from early June so all teams were still in the championship. It was obviously based on last year's form. Westfester (Limerick) - Posts: 944 - 13/08/2014 12:48:24 1636236 Link 0 |

Dowling by streets. Gave Delaney a torrid time last Sunday. Had five points from play versus Cork. Had 2-9 vs Tipp and tore Wexford apart with 2-10 or so. Not even a contest. tiobraidArann (Tipperary) - Posts: 362 - 13/08/2014 13:33:16 1636302 Link 0 |

Its not highest scorer of the year its hurler of the year and though Callinan has been fantastic hes not the hurler that Hogan is/has been this season. Every game he works his balls off. Every game he shows more skill and intelligence than any other player and every game he chips in with scores from the midfield. He links defence to the attack brilliantly.

I would imagine that Cody will have been well pleased with Reid's contribution last Sunday. The weather suited backs more and on such days it's as much about digging deep and work rate. Reid dug deep and put in a typical Kilkenny workman like performance. In fact he was on the ball way more than Hickey. More lazy journalism though, TJ held scoreless from play, Hickey had a great match! Reid started the move that lead to the Hogan goal. He also made up to four passes in the game. He was in his own half assisting the backs when it mattered. Underestimated performance from him, Cody nor TJ won't care though. westisthebest (Galway) - Posts: 444 - 14/08/2014 13:44:44 1636826 Link 0 |

Callanan isn't a patch on Hogan when it comes to work rate. If HOTY was decided on work rate alone Colin Fennelly, TJ Reid and Richie Hogan would leave all the Tipp players in their wake. westisthebest (Galway) - Posts: 444 - 14/08/2014 16:36:03 1636908 Link 0 |
