"Seamie has been so unlucky that he didn't get Hurler of the Year himself. The Tipp vote was split between himself and Seamie and Paudie Maher," said Carroll.
"If TJ had scored the goal Seamie scored against Wexford, there would have been more made out of it," said Wooly. Sometimes for some reason Seamie doesn't get that, I don't know why that is. Genuinely, if TJ had scored that goal, on a hopping ball, running away from the goal, would more have been made out of it? I think there would." "Maybe it's because he's in a forward line with match winners all over it..."Brian Carroll feels Callanan has to make it into the 'Hurling Superstar' sphere before he gets to earn Reid-like credit.
"Seamie is not seen as a superstar of the game. We probably have a couple of them in Joe Canning, TJ, Tony Kelly - Patrick Horgan probably isn't far off it. We're talking about the players people have up on massive pedestals and Seamie has this record just as good as any of them - in terms of goalscoring, he's obviously up there."Another 0-13 in an All-Ireland final and he couldn't be too far off.
