My only prediction is that many people will get indignant and lose the run of themselves and go mad if a player they think should get an All-Star doesn't get one. It's all rather silly.

In saying that if Dean Rock doesn't get one it's a f***ing disgrace!!!!

Just 7 Dubs for a team that went unbeaten all season that won the league against Kerry by 11 points that had to play Donegal Kerry and Mayo twice to win Sam only gets 7 players that doesn't seem right to me. Cluxton outstanding all year except one bad kick Clarke was drop for Galway game and all Ireland replay hardly all star form if your own manager doesn't think your good enough to start.

For me the keeper has to be cluxton or comerford. Clarke is a fine keeper but he didnt play any football in Connacht Championship and also didnt start replayed AIF

2010 was the last decent all star team. 8 counties represented. Down cork kildare louth dublin sligo kerry tyrone. Cork the champions got no all star forward. They were the best overall team but hadnt too many outstznding individuals. And the selection reflcted this .savage team. Paddy keenan gooch bernard brogan benny coulter marty clarke johhny doyle philip jordan graham canty. They would destroy any team picked this year. Bernard brigan got f of the y that year too and deservedly so even though dublin lost semi. Wouldnt hapoen now.

Kilkenny has been nominated for POTY - safe to say he'll get an all star.

In fact, given that he, Keegan and Fenton are all nominated, sure it's worth sticking the mortgage on that treble with paddypower. . €1000 get you €113 back

I think Evan Comerford was the best goalie all year. I dont think Cluxton had his best year.

Why is Donnelly getting so much hype.. Parsons for me deserves it ahead of him.

Parsons played very little football (tho had a good game Saturday) and isn't even nominated.
