I havent seen enough of Rowland but from the highlights I have seen he may be deserving of it.
From what I have seen I'd probably go for Fanning ahead of Hogan. I do beleive Murphy is probably already the greatest of all time but hasnt quite done enough this year in my opinion.

Wexford conceded 3 in six games, I'll give it to Fanning.

Murphy. Not as many big highlight moments as last year but still the best at the moment

Toss up between Enda and Eoin. Both great. Head to head in a hypo technical situation I think Enda would have got one of the goals on Sunday. The best I can do.
Enda.

My vote goes to eoin Murphy..stand out keeper who did the business vs cork and limerick when both were fancied for all Irelands at the time

Eoin Murphy all day long, every day, for the offensive side of his game alone.
We will never see a better keeper in the game, he has cemented his position as the greatest already in my opinion.
Nobody else comes close. Enda Rowland may be a great keeper but Murphy has proved himself at the highest level time and time again.
Enda played majority of his hurling in Joe Mc Donagh cup. While it goes without saying it would be massive for laois I feel it may be seen as some kind of novelty act.

Enda Rowland without a doubt this year has been the best keeper. If the Joe McDonagh was given more tv coverage or highlights even shown on The Sunday Game more people would see how good this man has been. Gave one of the best goalkeeping displays I've ever seen against us making at least 5 top saves and 1 of them a penalty. Great free taker for Laois as well. Probably wont get the all star he deserves as its not a top county he playing for
