That price about Leper has been snapped up. He's only 7/2 this morning. You must have had a right cut kk.

16/1 was a crazy price on Callaghan getting one - if I had seen that earlier I would have take a bit of it - Laimhe and all

16's was a great price. Have a feeling Callaghan could get one. Was excellent against Antrim and think he was our man of match against Leitrim and Derry. Played well after that also

Had a few quid on alright. They weren't willing to lay a decent bet online but I managed to get on over the phone.

Of the 5 Kildare nominations, After JD, I think Leper is the one I feel was most consistent, and that is in no way intended to take anything away from Jimmers, Peter and Emmet

I agree there KILL BILL , I would have also said peter, he was brilliant in all of the games, he played.

When are the awards ceremony on?

this Friday night

We should have at least three all stars come Friday nite.
Roll on Friday nite till i rud shoulders with the best in the country

Football team will be in Thursday's papers.

And the radio stations and websites on Wednesday evening

4.30pm today we will know who got allstars for footballers

This will be an interesting one alright. Usually the winning finalists get any marginal calls going there way. I think two all stars would be a huge success for the county.

I would give them to JD and Callaghan. Funnily enough I thought Flats was our best half back this year yet we have two All Star nominations in this position and he's not one of them.
Bolton started the year as a full back with disasterous outcome and Callaghan wasn't really a half back, we swept back at times but rotated more into the forward line. Overall he's had a great year.

Kelly has had a huge impact on the year too for Kildare. I really like his committment and determination in tackles and his marking ability but I think his ball handling and distribution needs to develop.

Here's hoping we can go a step further next year and we'd definitely have much more nominations.

Morgan Flats was brilliant this year and last year but he's not flashy like Conway or Bolton so he doesn't get the same attention in the media. He does all the dirty work, getting on breaks and getting back to cover the full back line that goes unnoticed by the neutral but is really appreciated by supporters.

I am praying that JD will get his just rewards at 4.30 pm today.I am very confident that he will be given the number 12 position. An absolute gent !!!

Best of luck to the other Kildare players also.

Any word on winners??

Congrats again

Dissapointed Emmett didn't get one.Well done to peter and Johnny

Bit surprised Jordan got the shout ahead of Callaghan. I would also question Cooper’s inclusion.

Well done to Peter and Johnny though. Well overdue for Johnny!

Canty is an absolute joke.McKiernan from Down must be sick.

Delighted that the great one got his just reward and well done to Peter Kelly on his great achievement.

Other than that , I think that it is ok and delighted that the great Benny Coulter got his award as well.Some forward line !!!!

Met Emmett Bolton with Marty Clarke in Limerick last weekend and he did not think that he would get one so he may not be too disappointed.

Bit surprised, how the fcuk did Canty get an all star a joke they always have one shock in it also Cooper can count his lucky stars. I have to say I'm over the moon that Johnny Doyle got an all star a true gent and a super player. Fair play to Peter Kelly he had some year and deserved his all star to.

Well done to the two lads!

Team is fair enough I suppose, we would like to have gotten 5 but with the two finalists only getting 4 each we were never going to get more than 2.

McKernan from Down is the biggest ommission for me though.

Well done lads. Great news !

Have to agree I'd have picked McKernan ahead of Canty.

The Dubs only got one. Keith Barr will be sick. How many did he think they were getting ? 4 or 5 was it ?

Sunday Game panel managed to get 8 right. Well done lads

Congratulations to Johnny & Peter, well deserved, some whirlwind of a summer for Peter Kelly, fair play., (not bad for a junior footballer!)
Biggest omission is McKernan from Down, John Galvin unlucky as well, also must be 1st time all ireland champs haven't a forward on the team
