Diarmaid Byrnes and Tom Morrissey Limerick’s unlucky duo

There’s usually less debate about the hurling All-Stars than you get with the football All-Stars.

Here you have Dublin with four All-Irelands in a row and Stephen Cluxton, acknowledged as the finest ever goalkeeper in football, not able to get an All-Star in any of the four years. For someone of Cluxton’s influence on the way Dublin play, it’s a strange one.

Aren’t this year’s hurling All-Stars the same pattern? There’s probably only two big talking points. You had Limerick’s Diarmaid Byrnes missing out at wing-back and his teammate Dan Morrissey getting in.
