    Hope for the future/Find of the campaign: Liam Lawrence

    Player of the campaign: Dunny Monster

    Most disappointing player: Kilbane (Can't really blame him that much though)

    Highlight of the campaign: Being there for Robbie's goal in Paris

    Lowlight of the campaign: Being there for Henry's handball etc. Gilardino's last minute goal

    Best goal: Whelan vs Italy

    Worst conceded: Iashvili at home to Georgia in 1st minute / Camoranesi at home to Italy

    Most improved player: Duffer

    Hope for the future/Find of the campaign: Sean St. Ledger

    Most underwhelming moment: Montenegro home match

    Biggest 'groan' moment except for conceding: O'Shea going off injured in Paris and McShane coming on

    Rub of the green moments: South Ossetia war. Penalty vs Georgia

    Player of the campaign: Richard Dunne

    Most disappointing player: Not sure of this tbh, Kilbane didn't really inspire me at all, so suppose I'll give it to him

    Highlight of the campaign: The moment Robbie hit the net in Paris (in the group stages, Keane v Italy away and St Ledger's at home come close).

    Lowlight of the campaign: The End

    Best goal: Whelan's cracker against the Italians

    Worst conceded: The second Italian goal at Croker

    Most improved player: Damien Duff

    Hope for the future/Find of the campaign: St Ledger for me - though Lawerence does deserve mention. Would have liked to have seen another striker stake a claim here.

    Player of the campaign: Richard Dunne/Robbie Keane

    Most disappointing player: Paul McShane

    Highlight of the campaign: Robbie's goal in Paris followed closely by St Ledgers at Croke Park and our overall improvement.

    Lowlight of the campaign: How we exited the campaign.

    Best goal: Whelan v Italy. Couldn't see a lot from the opposite end of the pitch but it still looked like a fine strike. Didn't see it hit the net so had to wait on the roar of the crowd.

    Worst conceded: Gilardino's equaliser. Heartbreak. So damn close.

    Most improved player: St Ledger. Took his chances and grew and grew and grew.

    Hope for the future/Find of the campaign: St Ledger. Given luck and consistent performances he will continue to grow and develop. He'll learn so much beside Dunne.
