[QUOTE="An Tarbh, post: 86674"] I'm surprised at that alright, didn't think Boylan would screw it up so badly. There's several players not there that I'd like to see but don't know whether they're injured. I don't really understand not picking Cooper, he's the best footballer in the country and has been able to handle himself against defenders twice his size, has the advantage of being both footed as well, don't think we can afford not to have him there. Whelan hasn't put himself forward for selection in recent years so I'm surprised if he's been omitted this year, has had a great season as well and is ideally suited to this game. Probably his anti-Dublin bias kicking in, although the same would apply to Darragh O'Sé, he's had a great season again and the same applies to him about this format, Boylan must have some different game plan in mind, Cullen would have been a great asset as he would have linked well between forwards and backs in this format, probably one of the smartest players around. Star player should be Donaghy, strong in the air and should set up a lot of scores for us. Stephen McDonnell has been quiet this year so he might just come good and have a good series, again comfortable off both feet and strong in the air. Coulter and Kavanagh have never let us down in this series so I'd expect both of them to continue that this year. Doesn't look a great squad overall, too many players I've never heard of, so it's definitely a case of wait and see what happens in Galway. [/QUOTE]
