IN POSSIBLY THE most competitive line on the field in the hurling Allstars, nine players who enjoyed excellent campaigns will battle it out for the three full-back line places.
The three favourites to get the nod are Kilkenny duo JJ Delaney and Paul Murphy, along with Limerick’s Seamus Hickey. They were the the players chosen by the Sunday Game panel and it’s likely the Allstar committee will concur.

Cathal Barrett (Tipperary)
JJ Delaney (Kilkenny)
Séamus Hickey (Limerick)
Richie McCarthy (Limerick)
Stephen McDonnell (Cork)

Fine player, only a matter of time until united ruin him
@Buzz O Sullivan: you must have missed the start of the season with him so?
@Buzz O Sullivan:
Should have known you were a Liverpool fan. Manchester United are the reason Daniel James is now playing in the Premier League, He scored 3 goals already
@Just Some Guy: as I said only a matter of time…
@Buzz O Sullivan: here mate, this is not about United or Liverpool it is about a good young player scoring a good goal. Unbelievable how small minded fools bring it back to premier league football rivalry. Giggs is taking risks and playing young lads, more power to him.
@Seagoat returns: I bleed the red of Liverpool, everything in my life revolves around it. Ynwa
@Buzz O Sullivan: What a sad life that must be.
@Buzz O Sullivan: I’d hope that that’s sarcasm. Can’t understand how anyone could ‘bleed’ any pl side in this day and age given the flippant nature of mercenary players and management.
I doubted Daniel James when he first joined Manchester United but he has proved me wrong. Keep up the good work for club and country
He has been the only positive part of Uniteds start to the season for me.
Daniel James looks like a great young player. He only seems to score quality goals. Let’s hope one or two of our young lads in the 21s become as good as James, Wilson and ampadu
Welsh out in force
Add Jadon Sancho and Declan Rice to that Utd team and they’d suddenly be feared again
