Her Bohs team-mate, Alana McInerney, has also been nominated for finishing a thrilling turnover attack that started with Chloe Pearse’s breakdown steal, dynamic burst, and offload.
And Ireland international Nicola Fryday is the fourth nominee for powerfully finishing some outstanding play by Old Belvedere that saw them ignoring awful weather conditions to offload freely on their way towards the tryline.
