CHAMPIONS ARMAGH LEAD the way with 11 nominations as the 2024 Pwc Football All-Star awards have been announced this morning.

Kieran McGeeney’s side are heavily represented, while beaten finalists Galway have eight players in the running. Ulster champions Donegal have seven nominees, with Leinster kingpins Dublin represented by four players.

Munster title-holders Kerry have four players included, with quarter-finalists Louth enjoying their best ever representation with four nominees.

The list is completed by two players apiece from Mayo (Aidan O’Shea and Ryan O’Donoghue), Roscommon (Brian Stack and Diarmuid Murtagh), Tyrone (Niall Morgan and Darragh Canavan), along with Cork defender Daniel O’Mahony.

There are only four players from the 2023 All-Star team nominated after this season – Tom O’Sullivan, Brian Fenton, Paudie and David Clifford.

The nominations were chosen by a panel of Gaelic Games journalists from across, print, radio, TV and digital media.

The PwC All-Stars will be shown live on RTÉ at a special banquet in the RDS on Friday 1 November.
