Six All-Star awards for All-Ireland winning Limerick side

Limerick have been rewarded for winning their first All-Ireland in 45 years with six players making the GPA/GAA All Star team that was named tonight.

Sean Finn, Richie English, Declan Hannon, Dan Morrissey, Cian Lynch and Graeme Mulcahy have all been recognised for their outstanding performances this season in Limerick’s run to All-Ireland glory.

Finn and English were key cogs in Limerick’s full back line, while Hannon and Morrissey also starred in John Kiely’s team.

Lynch picked up this award and the Hurler of the Year gong thanks to some special showings in the middle of the park.
