There would have been little argument from anyone in the county of Limerick or across the country who could disagree with the selection as many believe Lynch was the standout player of the year also.

Speaking to Balls.ie the 25 year old mentioned what his priciples are and what motivates him to be the best player he can be as he said:

“I was told hard work beats talent if talent doesn’t work hard”.

“Work hard and try push yourself in everything you do and try not just settle for what you have today, try work hard so you might push yourself on for tomorrow”.
