Replying To iarmhiabu: "Two poorest teams in Section A going at it tonight in relegation final. Athlone and South Westmeath offering very little at the moment, Mullingar and north to Mullingar is football stronghold." The South Westmeath clubs may not be setting the place alight at the moment but to say they are offering very little is an insult to the players from southern clubs who made such an important contribution to Westmeath's success this year. These things tend to come in cycles. The clubs from Mullingar area are dominant now but history shows that this won't last forever. All of Westmeath's five football All-Stars came from the south of the county, Athlone has more senior titles than any other club, while Garrycastle is the only Westmeath club to win a Leinster senior title.

Replying To yew_tree: "I think it's great we get to go to a few club games this weekend. My heads been in a spin since the all Ireland final (in a good way) and it's hard to think about anything else. What a two weeks it's been. Now back to club where it all begins. I'd encourage everyone to get to a game or two. I saw a good few supporters out at the Sam homecomings who I've never seen at a club game…remember there no county team with the clubs. Up Mayo!" Sadly it's the same case in most counties, you'll get all the hangers on at county level when things are going good, yet they probably couldn't give you directions to their local club pitch. I've seen it up here often enough.
Don't expect to see too many Mayo 'influencers' down at their locals clubs recording themselves the same way they were in Croke Park only two short weeks ago!

Replying To The_analyser: "Shouldn't be in regards to nominations.
The six forwards selected it probably will be as I would expect 5 of the 6 awards to go to Kerry,Mayo forwards. Last one to a Dub as journalists always give at least one to Dublin when they reach the last four at least.
If that does happen then Dublin's poor form in Division 1 and Leinster championship, plus All-Ireland series defeat to Louth will be ignored." Surely Diarmuid Murtagh will get at least a nomination at least this year. By my calculations and not having played as many games as some of the contenders he scored 5-61 between division 1 of the national league against the top teams and also in the championship.
He scored a very impressive 4-30 in the National League and only David Clifford scored more. He was also one of the top scorers on the championship with 1-31 (having played fewer games); with 1-10 against All Ireland Champions Mayo, 0-8 against Tyrone, and 0-7 against Galway in the Connacht final. Monaghan were well on top in midfield in the last game and he got very limited ball (not all his fault) but still managed 0-4.
If he does not get a nomination (AT LEAST) the whole team of the YEAR idea is a joke in my opinion.

Replying To richiepmurphy: "Can't or won't?!!" Cant. It was the top table that were pushing for it. Jarleth Burns and the Central Council.
