Darragh Fitzgibbon (Cork)

Under crushing pressure, Darragh Fitzgibbon stayed ice cool to land a pressure 65 at the end of an absorbing Munster SHC Final. Tireless and terrific, the Charleville clubman was immense for Pat Ryan's team throughout.

Huw Lawlor (Kilkenny)

A brilliant defensive display from Huw Lawlor was a key factor in Kilkenny making it six Leinster SHC titles in a row. The classy Cats full-back made some excellent fetches.

Jack Sheridan (Kildare)

Jack Sheridan starred in Kildare's Joe McDonagh Cup Final triumph over Laois at Croke Park. A potent threat, Sheridan struck 1-4 for Brian Dowling's rapidly improving team.
