GAA.ie Footballer of the Week

1: Niall Grimley (Armagh) - 2359 votes (50%)

2: Con O'Callaghan (Dublin) - 1210 votes (26%)

3: Padraig Hampsey (Tyrone) - 1121 votes (24%)


**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.

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.

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.
