Theres a poll in the thread old man ?Collins
I would agree TonyEvery single team in Ireland would pick Quaid on both form and ability. Collins second this year.
Have to agree with this.Nickie Quaid has been the best and most consistent 'keeper for the past 6 years but this year on it's own Patrick Collins is surely the best in championship. Collins made a few huge double saves and more than any other 'keeper showing he was fastest off his line, his puckouts were excellent. Quaid gave Peter Duggan a handy goal v Clare by scooping the sliotar into his hand instead of pulling first time. Collins is also the most improved in a very short time.
Of course all stars are picked on this year but both Collins and Quaid have been exceptional for the most partHave to agree with this.
All Stars are picked on this year so should be the same for goalkeepers and I think Collins edges Quaid this year along with other keepers for reasons you list
