Anthony Burns (Galway)
Anthony Burns was sensational for Galway in their win over Clare on Saturday. The inside forward displayed great skill, speed, and finishing ability as he scored 2-3 from play.
Killian Sampson (Offaly)
Killian Sampson was a ball of energy for Offaly in their Allianz Hurling League Division 1B victory over Antrim. He scored 1-4 from play and also set up Dan Ravenhill’s goal with a great pass.
Barry Murphy (Limerick)
Barry Murphy has been reinvented as a corner-back this year by Limerick and really looks the part. An excellent performance against Cork was followed up with a man of the match display against Tipperary as he made a series of canny defensive interceptions and put Limerick on the front-foot with some excellent passing.
