GAA.ie Footballer of the Week nominations

Con O'Callaghan (Dublin)

Classy Cuala attacker Con O'Callaghan kicked 0-12, including six from play for Dublin against Kildare.

An AIB All Ireland Hurling Club winner with Cuala in March, O'Callaghan continues to impress.

A key figure in Dublin's EirGrid All Ireland Under 21 triumph in May, O'Callaghan is delivering on the senior stage for Jim Gavin's team.

Padraig Hampsey (Tyrone)

It has been a wonderful Ulster campaign for the emerging Padraig Hampsey.

Two years ago Hampsey was a central figure in Tyrone's All Ireland Under 21 success.

Now Hampsey is producing for Mickey Harte's charges with his three points against Down another hugely industrious display.

Niall Grimley (Armagh)

Niall Grimley was in splendid scoring form for Armagh against Tipperary at Semple Stadium.

Grimley ventured forward to nail two points from play in his 0-8 total.

Ably assisted at centrefield by the hard working Stephen Sheridan, Grimley was a constant source of inspiration for Armagh in Thurles.


Players of the Week are decided based on votes cast by followers of @officialgaa on Twitter, on the Official GAA Facebook Page and on the Official GAA Instagram page.
