new on here lads, just havin a discussion with a mate last nigth over who was the best defender..
i say Owen Heary.. whos the choice on here?
oh and we agreed on Weso as midfielder and O'Neill and Murphy up front..
Are you talking about this season only, or overall.
I'd agree with Owen Heary - consistent for years, very rarely caugt out.
For midfield it has to Kevin Hunt - not at his best this season, but still the best midfielder in the league.
Upfront - tough call: for consistency over a number of seasons I'd go for Crowe and Jason Byrne, but there are a lot of contenders
Alan Bennet and Stephen Grey would have to come into it, or is this for Dublin players only?
as a limerick man i may be a bit biased but i think paddy purcell is top class and im also sad to say that paul finucane could show his class if he moved away from limerick
I can't believe anyone would be so bias.... Anyway, my pick is Barry Ferguson....Originally Posted by what biy!
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.

Premier
Goalkeeper: Stephen O Brien
Young Goalkeeper: Brendan Clarke - youngest and best keeper in the league
Defender: Owen Heary/Colm Foley - Foley nudging it cos he can score too!
Best Young Def: Quigo - quite simply sensational!
Midfielder: Stuey Byrne - excellent player
Young Mid: Keith Fahey - class act - totally confounded me this year
Striker: O'Brien out of Drogs gets it for me - Jason Byrne has a major Thierry Henry complex- bottles the big occassions continuuously than scores 4 v some team who arent arsed - no suprise than that his manager is out looking for Crowe is it? (seems like a bizarre thing to say as hes top striker - but watch him being dropped next season!)
You mean like cup finals and crucial title deciding games wws?
Pat Purcell - top notch
no i basically just mean hes crap
missed penalty in longford i see.. tut tut
Yeah, but so long as he keeps scoring in the small games, you know, the title deciders, fai cup finals and the like, it'll be enough for me.
Gray of Drogheda is best defender
Always look on the bright side of life
Quigo is Stephen Quigley of Pats, plays left back I think, good player any time I've seen him but a lot of our defenders are top notch, Ferguson, Dillon, Prunty and Gartland are all outstanding without any bias, we have one of the best defences in the league
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Sean Dillon is top notch! He will be one of the best defenders in the League for years to come! lets not forget Colin Hawkins in all this or Danny O'Connor from Drogheda.
true but the rest of your team has left you down big time in the league ! Only scored 26 gaols all season in the league, even DC have scored more than that.
Danny O'Connor is top class, Cant believe we left him go for nothing a few seasons back
Strikers have let us down big time, we have three strikers with less than ten goals between them all year, the amount of chances we miss is unreal
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Goalkeeper: Steve Williams
Defender Owen Heary
Midfielder: Kevin Hunt
Striker: Glen Crowe
