I'd have Kilkenny before Flynn or DOC at this stage. Rock ahead of COC at the minute as well. McManamon is ahead of both, but free taking means rock gets in for me. Boyle is another notable absentee but that half back line is the strongest part of the team. GeniusGerry (Kerry) - Posts: 2105 - 09/09/2016 16:05:36 1912319 Link
Decent team Personally would drop Cillian O'Connor and Paul Flynn and replace with Ciaran Kilkenny and Kevin McManeman good to see someone from OUTSIDE Dublin appreciate James McCarthy for once!!! Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 09/09/2016 16:06:53 1912320 Link
Replying To Liamwalkinstown: "http://www.hoganstand.com/ArticleForm.aspx?ID=260691 no ciaran kilkenny.... FAIL!" it's not exactly a "FAIL". I'd have Kilkenny but it's all a matter of opinion. This just happens to be this particular author's opinion. I personally wouldn't have Cluxton but I accept that 99% of people would. All opinion lads. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5012 - 09/09/2016 16:20:10 1912327 Link
Strikes me that going on form, Clarke, Boyle and Kilkenny have all been hard done by. In fairness, Seamus hasn't hit the heights of old this season at midfield. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 09/09/2016 16:29:19 1912331 Link

As i said, i think its a mighty team but i would have a few changes but the half back line for me, they have it spot on And if Jack was around.....it would have been very interesting! :) Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 09/09/2016 16:46:30 1912337 Link
I wouldn't have Kilkenny on it. His form has been over-stated this year - he was anonymous against Kerry, and people looking at the stat of the million possessions he had against Donegal didn't really look past the stat to see what he did with the ball - not really that much. Kilkenny is the modern GAA coach's dream - ticks all the right boxes for athleticism and work-rate and his stats are great and he rarely gives the ball away. I prefer skillful players, players with a bit of flair. He hasn't got the skill of any of the 3 in the half forward line of that combined team though. jason (Mayo) - Posts: 139 - 09/09/2016 16:46:31 1912338 Link

Replying To Liamwalkinstown: "Ciaran kilkenny is not skillful...... Sweet suffering jesus......." Reading comprehension not the best there Liam. My post doesn't say he's not skillful, just that he's not as skillful as the 3 in the HS combined team. jason (Mayo) - Posts: 139 - 10/09/2016 08:11:17 1912488 Link

I prefer skillful players u say, well listen Jason, by all means each man his own opinion, but if you think CKK isnt skillful, well you must not watch much of him :) On the team itself, its a very strong team. As I said, the ONLY change I would make is I would get CKK in for Paul Flynn and K Mc in for COC Thats is really Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 10/09/2016 10:09:58 1912508 Link
