Criminal? When did he deserve an all star? Awards are given out at the end of the year remember

Plenty of time to get a few yet. Criminal as you say that he hasnt gotten one yet. At his current rate, I'd argue Kev Mc isnt far off one either.

On a side-note, Another Dublin related thread :D

Love it!! Hon Liamo ye boya!!

Keep em comin' lads, Keep em comin.

All-Stars me hoop.

He's got 2 Celtic Crosses 4 Leinster Medals, as well as 2 NFL medals.

Dublin SFC medal and Leinster Club SFC medal too.

The boy's doing alright for himself I think!

Aidan O'Shea maybe?

Cian O'Sull to midfield and James Mc into the half back line.

AOS played well for a bit when DnG were beat and then didn't show up for the final.

James fairly consistent all year ;)

Ha!

So that's Leinster and All-Ireland U21 as well.

Wow!

But he does have a few Ireland caps under his belt.

Has he being in the best 3 wing backs in the last few years? No.

Who does he play for?

I doubt he is losing sleep over it! As Mes Amis said, he has real awards. He reminds me of Robbie Kelliher (yes, I know Robbie was corner back) in the way he almost goes through matches without anyone noticing he is there! And yet doing a massive amount of the heavy lifting that is winning games.

would i swap James McCarthy for Lee Keegan
not in a million years
If you offered me Keegan, Boyle and Vaughan for him I wouldnt take it

the guy is different class

James also has two u-21 Dublin Championship medals too.

The guy doesn't even have room in the trophy cabinet at home for an all star!!!

Oh, and James has a Sigerson Cup medal too.

James McCarthy could throw a snowball and hit the sun apparently...
