As it is the end of the county season each county must have their own player of the year. So what is your county, who is your player of the year and why?
County: Armagh
POY: Andy Mallon
Why: led the defence well throughout the league when injuries robbed the team of many players. Defended well in championship and also managed to get up the field for a few scores.
Mayo
Between Keith Higgins and COC. I'd probably go for Keith but it's a marginal call
Galway : Shane Walsh
Potty training : Donaghy for the goals in the big matches . So what if he didn't play in Munster. Who cares now?
Dublin - Diarmuid Connolly closely followed by Paul Flynn
We didn't have one.
We didn't have a year.
Boyler, Higgins and Cillian! :-\

+1 Very hard to separate them.
Roscommon: Kevin Higgins. Always had talent; he became a real leader and a consistent threat this year. Neil Collins a close second.
Colm Cavanagh.
Fergal Doc

Agree with this. I hope all 3 get All-Stars, but I think it would be too much to ask.

Probably Doherty or Lynch for Derry, Doherty got injured when we needed him most
Dessie Mone.
Shane Walsh
Honourable mentions to Michael Lundy and Tom Flynn.
CAVAN
A tough ask for Cavan to follow last years success, but a lot of positives to be taken from our league campaign. For me ourmost encouraging player this year has been Conor Moynagh. He helped us to the Junior A.I and looks like he could develop into a serious player, great at reading the game and always looks comfortable on the ball. In the seniors I would say Cillian Clarke ( when playing) has been our one truly class player. Hopefully we can get a few forwards on the list next year, but that doesnt look likely with the style we're playing at the moment
Cillian, and he didn't kick a ball from final 2013 until late March..phenomenal season.
Tommy Moolick definitely the most improved. Padraig O'Neill the most consistent.

Ehh? Im confused, surely Cregger is player of the year for the rossies, after all he is the finest talent that ever kicked a ball, in fact he should be player of the year in the country according to your expert opinion :-) :-) Also as per the title it was "your counties best player" so in your case that means Mayo as well seeing that you are their greatest supporter
I cant remember if anyone played well for Tyrone.
Tyrone. Mattie Donnelly.
Fergal Conway, Ollie Lyons and Alan Smith were the stand-outs but for attitude commitment and work-rate I would have Tommy Moolick as Kildare's player of the year, plus he scored probably one of the goals of the season.
For down, we had a very poor season. Virtually no player performed consistently to anywhere near the standard they had the potential for. I thought most players had sporadic moments of influence and far too many of inadequacy. Only one player stood out as putting in a 100% committed and high standard shift for every game. So Connor Laverty would be my Down player of the year.

Hard to disagree but I will. Going to go for Findon. I think he will be a mainstay in the team for years and given his age and the position he plays it was a very good year for him
And the Keoghan medal for Meath's best player goes to (drumroll)...... Donal Keoghan!

Stefan Campbell for me.

I thought Cormac Reilly was very influential this year. ;)

yes, he had a very good year and I look forward to seeing more progression from him. From the whole team actually. For the first time in a long while I am optimistic about Armagh
Absolutely no idea.
We didn't even draw a game. At lease next year can't be any worse. Or can it?
Cillian. Wouldnt swap him for anyone in the land.
Cavan were pretty poor so hard to pick anyone but Martin Reilly was pretty solid for most of the year so he'd get my vote.
