All-Stars 2015: Virtually all the Stars are the brightest

A few days before the All-Stars are announced each year, three or four of us in the Gaelic football department here in The Jes in Galway city try and see can we second-guess the selection committee.

Some years we are miles off the selected side, which proves how wrong the selection committee can be at times. However, on Thursday we got 14 of the 15 players announced last night in the Convention Centre in Dublin, which reinforces my view that this team is, in the main, a good and fair selection.

Kerry’s Brendan Kealy fully merited his first gong between the sticks by virtue of some outstanding saves during the season. However, when the pressure is on, his kick-out strategy can become extremely erratic and that is something he needs to work on for 2016.
