John Heslin – Westmeath
John Heslin turned in a seriously classy performance for Westmeath in their Tailteann Cup victory over Offaly. He scored five points from play himself, and was a potent creative force too.
Pat Spillane – Sligo
Every time Spillane raced forward with the ball for Sligo against Cavan a buzz went through the crowd. He finished with two point from play after a very energetic midfield display.
Gearoid McKiernan – Cavan
When Sligo came on strong in the second-half of the Tailteann Cup semi-final it was McKiernan who did most to keep Cavan calm with some key scores, finishing with a personal tally of four points.
