John McGrath (Tipperary)

It has been an encouraging stint for Tipperary, who registered an impressive win over Antrim at Corrigan Park. Loughmore-Castleiney clubman John McGrath rifled over six sweet points from play.

Billy Drennan (Kilkenny)

One of the standout performers in the Allianz Hurling League, Billy Drennan's accuracy was crucial as Kilkenny eventually defeated Waterford at UPMC Nowlan Park. Sharp from frees, Drennan added another 0-10 haul for Derek Lyng's outfit.

Alex Considine (Dublin)

Alex Considine's first half scores were crucial in Dublin's Allianz Hurling League success over Laois at Parnell Park. Considine, who was forced off early through injury, started off with 1-3 in the opening 20 minutes, as Micheál Donoghue's charges prevailed.
