Aidan o shea wouldn't get near the top 100 never mind the top 15. superdub (Dublin) - Posts: 392 - 26/12/2019 13:47:00 2256154 Link
Hard to see how Diarmuid Connnolly squeezed in: he has only 1 All Star, Colm Cooper and Paul Mannion have 3. I think Aidan O Shea has a good case: only 7 players have more All Stars. Aibrean (Kerry) - Posts: 263 - 26/12/2019 15:49:42 2256160 Link

Because Spillane cruxified him on the Sunday Game..... witnof (Dublin) - Posts: 1604 - 26/12/2019 18:27:16 2256171 Link

But Connolly got more red cards and suspensions than gooch and mannion :-) Being honest I can't see how they picked Connolly either.

No Kerrymen on the team of the decade? Doh! Jackeen (Dublin) - Posts: 4097 - 27/12/2019 10:06:12 2256201 Link
Replying To Jackeen: "No Kerrymen on the team of the decade? Doh!" No we weren't good enough jackeen simple as that but some of ye try to make out that our team from this decade was just as good or even better than our team of the decade before.

Replying To KingdomBoy1: "But Connolly got more red cards and suspensions than gooch and mannion :-) Being honest I can't see how they picked Connolly either." Connolly has more All Irelands than Gouch too. hamsterdean (Limerick) - Posts: 223 - 27/12/2019 13:15:29 2256217 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "No we weren't good enough jackeen simple as that but some of ye try to make out that our team from this decade was just as good or even better than our team of the decade before." To be fair Kerry team of this decade showed up against the likes of Tyrone unlike the team of noughties who shyed in the tight games. hamsterdean (Limerick) - Posts: 223 - 27/12/2019 14:24:33 2256222 Link
Replying To hamsterdean: "Connolly has more All Irelands than Gouch too." Has he? I didn't know that . Gooch has 5 intercounty has Connolly got 6? Are you counting club's as well? KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 27/12/2019 14:42:51 2256226 Link
Think that would be my team too. bugsie (Leitrim) - Posts: 199 - 27/12/2019 15:44:16 2256232 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "Has he? I didn't know that . Gooch has 5 intercounty has Connolly got 6? Are you counting club's as well?" 2011, 13. 15, 16, 17, 19. Did he win a couple clubs too? When I was in Flannans I think he beat us in All Ireland College final with dublin colleges. hamsterdean (Limerick) - Posts: 223 - 27/12/2019 17:41:56 2256242 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "Has he? I didn't know that . Gooch has 5 intercounty has Connolly got 6? Are you counting club's as well?" Ya. Connolly has 6 intercounty All-Irelands. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2041 - 27/12/2019 18:33:10 2256251 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "Has he? I didn't know that . Gooch has 5 intercounty has Connolly got 6? Are you counting club's as well?" Connolly has 8 if you're including club. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13707 - 27/12/2019 19:37:12 2256255 Link
Replying To lilypad: "all stars dont mean shit o'shea is all size, poor mans vinny or michael murphy" it is difficult to argue with a detailed, intelligent, fact based and especially well written argument like that. Aibrean (Kerry) - Posts: 263 - 27/12/2019 19:40:13 2256256 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "Has he? I didn't know that . Gooch has 5 intercounty has Connolly got 6? Are you counting club's as well?" Yes. And zero decorum on & off the field. greysoil (Monaghan) - Posts: 965 - 27/12/2019 19:46:30 2256257 Link
No Kerryman on the team, ffs is it Dublin posters picking it??? :) Give me a Star or Gooch any day over them "buys" in blue ;D TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 27/12/2019 20:38:44 2256264 Link
Replying To WanPintWin: "Ya. Connolly has 6 intercounty All-Irelands." I'd say he'll get at least 5/6 more as well. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 27/12/2019 21:17:32 2256267 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "I'd say he'll get at least 5/6 more as well." I'd doubt it, unless he transfers to Galway. The 'Tribe for 5' starts in 2020. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2041 - 27/12/2019 22:56:16 2256280 Link
