The voting process is simple: like their image on the GAA's official Instagram page.

Voting will close at 12pm on Tuesday, July 19, and the winner will be announced on GAA.ie.

Gearóid Hegarty – Limerick

Gearóid Hegarty has a habit of producing big performances in All-Ireland Finals and did it again on Sunday by scoring 1-5 from play, winning a huge amount of hard ball, and putting in some big hits.

Diarmaid Byrnes – Limerick

Byrnes crowned a superb year with another powerful performance on Sunday. His point from play was outrageously good, he scored four more from placed balls, and hoovered up a huge amount of possession.

Huw Lawlor – Kilkenny

Lawlor was an absolute rock in the Kilkenny full-back line. He won his duel with Aaron Gillane and nipped danger in the bud time and again thanks to trademark mixture of athleticism and anticipation.

Players of the Week are decided based on votes cast by followers of the Official GAA Instagram page.
