even though Moran didn't take his goal chances (he only had 2 chances) he still destroyed Marc O'Se. At least 2 more Mayo players should get nominations, I can't see how Paul Durcan from Donegal got 1 Robert Hennelly was much better

How did he destroy him? Did he even score in the game?

lads andy moran would be the first footballer on any team this year, and the best ypounster was cillian o connor! let of the biased glasses on folks and just accept reality that the big awards are on their way to mayo- unless the journos think their papers need to sell a few extra copies to gullible dubs

Mayoareaverage, (only joking!!), as much ball as he won that day he wasn't allowed do anything with it due to top class full back play by a fantastic centre half forward (Marc O'Se). Hence he only scored 2 points. Hardly a good return from a full forward who's supposed to have destroyed his marker.

Ya he scored a brilliant point at the end of the first half and was involved in many more mayo scores. Absolutely ran rings around o'se, eoin liston said it was the first time he'd ever seen o'se gettin destroyed like that in croke park

A few posters with chips on their shoulder regarding mayo players getting nominated foe all stars....nothing new there. Sure maybe Mayo should get NO all stars adn give them to teams we beat or teams who didnt get as far as a semi final.

Regarding ballboy - why are ye even responding to his posts.....he doesent even like GAA and (from what we are all told) is down in NZ enjoyed what he claims is the best sport of them all.

You don't give All-Stars to teams though, do you? You give them to players.

maybe bit biased here but no limerick nominations??? we definatley should have at least 1 maybe 2?? at the most stephen kelly surely deserved a nomination?? and possibly ger collins or ian ryan seems to me that all the media, experts etc give no credit to limerick id say we will have to win a munster before people take notice

Bit of a joke alrite no Limerick player even got a nomination! Even if Limerick won Munster people would try and find falt with it, this year there was more about Wexford not making the Q\F then Limerick making it.

Talking my language lads. It's not bias believe it or not, some of our lads have REALLY been in the top bracket with their performances this year. Stephen Kelly was immense. The anatagonism towards our footballers is disheartening to say the least. Until we beat Cork or Kerry, which hardly anyone ever does, we won't get any recognition on any level. Such is life. Also, I think Gooch ended up claiming top scorer in the final, not Ben Brosnan. It annoys me that he has been lauded so much when in all honesty he was afforded so much space in every game bar against us, when he was a no-show. Again, such is life.

moomoo...........As you were told already he cored on amazing point from the sideline at the end of the first half. He did destroy O'Se, every time Moran got the ball he ran rings around O'Se.

Well Limerick did beat Cork by 9/10 points a few years back! Stephen Kelly, Ian Rayn and Ger Collins are better players then Brosnan i think yet Brosnan got all the headlines this year

So based on one point he destroyed him? I wouldn't say he ran rings around him! He for inside a few times and didn't take the chances any good forward would have taken them chances

Far too many nominations for Donegal,Mayo & Kildare. Limerick should have a nomination especially if Tyrone have two? & Wexford,Derry should have more & we should have at least one.

Yes but anyone can get around a player and make chances not much good if they dont take them!
