Seamus Hickey lost an All star in 2007 for getting cleaned out. There is no way in hell Mikey Butler should be getting an Allstar ahead of Mike Casey or Nash. 7 of the 30 scores conceded came via Butler 5 from play and 2 from frees.
Too right, ignore that Butler was told to mark Mulcahy when Casey got 2 in 3 mins...
No way should Butler get All Star
Mikey Butler the whole way... TKs kryptonite
I normally agree with Tommy, but I think there was a vast gulf in the second half.
The biggest stat is that Limerick had 30 scores, Kilkenny had seventeen.
That speaks for itself.
Love listening to Tommy , normally very on the ball. He is way off here. But let kilkenny have all the all stars they want as long as the treaty keep winning all Ireland’s.
Tommy no mention of cian lynch kilkenny and galway were close to limerick last year this year limerick struggled in munster the wizard returned .😮.his genius makes some difference. He produced it in the semi final and final.
Should Mikey Butler be in ?
TJ Reid was absent during the final. He was not at the races at all. Time for him and Richie Hogan to call it a day. To have him as an all star is ridiculous.
TJ Reid is living this year on his reputation definitely not worth a all star this year
Shane O'Donnell deserved to be on ahead of TJ I feel. The man makes hurling look easy. He improved in every game he played. Cathal Mannion had a great year as well, but I think Henry tinkered with the team too much in the semi final and Cathal hardly knew where he was playing. Finally, Dan Morrissey definitely had to be on the team of the year. You can take Butler or Nash out for him.
Dan Morrissey and Barry Nash any day over Mikey Butler…Kilkenny had a handy run to the final compare to Limerick going to war day after day in Munster
Yo from Tipperary......Why oh why did Kilkenny keep hitting the ball down the necks of the Limerick half back line supported by their midfield. totally stoopid panic hurling which I would not have expected from them. Effectively for a kilkenny puckout you had three half forwards trying to win the ball against three Limerick half backs, supported by their midfield and their half forwards too who also go back. Impossible to win the ball really and they kept doing it. There has to be another way for teams to get around that if they use their heads or at least copy it if yo have the work rate to do it
Nash operates on a completely different level to Mikey Butler and leaves a much larger footprint on all games he plays. Mikey Butler is a top defender but not at Nash’s level, there is no debate. Huw Lawlor and Dan Morrissey make up a dream back line
Tommy is way of, not sure what game he was watching, lynch was outstanding to mention as was the rest. Sound's like sour grapes to me, usually good but way out on this one
No Shane O Donnell 🙈. Way ahead of Kelly. Always turns up in the big games.
Tony Kelly 3rd highest score in championship from play only behind Cody and Whelan and didnt have 2 handy games against westmeath and antrim to bump up his tally. He had 4 assists in and 1 score from play in semi final didnt shoot the lights out yes but thats more to do with Lohan playing him in midfield and not in forwards where he should have been. O Donnell is class but not even in 10 ten scorers from play Tony seems to be judged higher than everyone else. TJ and Cody and Mikey Butler didnt turn up on Sunday and not a word about them being picked
T walsh looks shook after that all ireland id say his still in shock, no S O'Donnell or D Morrissey
Iike tommy usually very good to listen to, but i think he is suffering from tunnel vision in reation to how close Kilkenny were
Tj and Tony ?? I don't think so
shane o donnell? did he forget him?
Instead of?
@jordan5nick Tony Kelly had one game where he wasn't best player on the pitch so no I ain't agreeing there
Don’t know how you couldn’t have Dan Morrissey on that team
@jordan5nickprobably would've went against him even more cus lads would be writing them off as non contests. Although Wexford and Dublin have better records v Galway and Kilkenny than the other Munster counties outside of Limerick. Dan will win an all star, he's getting so much better with age. Very surprised how good he's turned out the last few years. Full back line is his best position and he's probably only just behind Huw Lawlor as the best in the country. Love watching Dan, great bit of stuff, maxes himself out.
@@MikeL8998Never was this shown better than in the Cork game. Limerick were coasting when Hannon had to go off and Dan was brought out to Center Back- bad move- suddenly the Full Back Line was weaker and Cork came right back into it.
TJ? No point from play in the last 2 finals, a fine player but an All Star or best 15 I don't think so.
The sixty five that wasn't , 2019
TJ? Odd choice over Shane O’Donnell
No Shane O’Donnell???
How did he forget shane o donnell
Clear kilkenny bias. Tom Morrissey all day long for full back. And Mikey butler was better than Mike Casey at corner back for the year?
Mikey Butler didnt turn up on sunday he was taken for 5 points 3 from play and conceded 2 frees and only on the ball 4 times. Kilkenny bias
Mike Casey struggled big time in Munster. I think you mean Dan Morrissey for 3, Huw Lawlor is nailed. Morrissey should be 4.
@@GearoidHowley Has to be a distinction in position. Morrissey and Lawlor played full back all year. one of them deserves an allstar in that position. to give them both an all star takes away an allstar from a deserving corner back. Its not right to do that, but if you have to then mikey butler doesn't get one and Nash does.
Dan Morrissey , mixing then up
Kyle Hayes my hurler of the year . A fantastic player . Congrats to Limerick from a Cork supporter.Can’t wait for Cork v Limerick next year.
Mikey Butler was absolutely cleaned out in the final, over rated. Kilkenny bias again
Tommy,
You would want to take a serios look at the match again ...and be simply....impartial...stop being so bloody biased...its bordering on stomach churning stuff....
Incase you hadn't noticed. He picked team of the year. Not team of one match. Try and keep up.
Shane o Donnell Adam Hogan top performers all year
Shane o donnell ,way ahead of Kelly.
