Allstar selectors swing into action

THE first stage in the selection of the 2002 Vodafone GAA Allstars will be taken in Dublin today when the panel of national journalists meet to decide on the nominations.

This will involve selection of 45 players for both the hurling and football teams, based on the general principle of three players per position.

The list of nominees will be published over the next two days, with the All Star football team to be chosen on Wednesday, November 27, and announced the following day. The hurling Allstars will be revealed live on television at the presentation banquet in the Citywest Hotel two nights later.
