Possible Meath All Stars

(Oldest Posts First)

Thoughts on potential Meath all stars/ all stars nominations this year?

Before the Donegal game few names I saw talked about were-
Rafferty
Canfield
Costello
Morris

Seems now Rafferty is best placed of our players to get one.

Rafferty will be the only one to get an All Star, we were soundly beaten in a semi, as a result Kerry and Donegal will dominate it.

But on Sean Rafferty, he kept David Clifford to 1 point from play I believe (the 2 pointer from play was off Lavin) - which is incredible when you think about the damage he done since that game. He did very well on Shane Walsh, again limited him to scraps, we fell apart against Galway when he went off. He was really good against Dublin too.

I think Kinsella is probably next best to him, he was consistently good all year but unfortunately 2 of his better games (Kerry and Dublin) weren't even broadcast, so unless you were there you didn't see it

Caufield had a good year, but he won't win an All Star

Jordan Morris had a stormer against Galway, but outside of that he didn't do much All Star worthy.

Costello missed too much time to be considered.

Other than that, I don't think anyone else really is in contention. Saw Brian Menton's name thrown around, and Donal Keoghan too - 2 brilliant players but couldn't see them winning an All Star.

Who from Meath do you think will be nominated?

I would love to see Donal Keoghan win an All Star and a Leinster title (not at Louths expense). What a player and servant he has been for Meath and Rathkenny. Sean Rafferty will probably be Meaths best chance of getting an all star.
