"These players have performed exceptionally throughout the season, giving it their all at every match. Their talent is a testament to the families and communities that have supported them on their journey, and they’ve earned their place on the Team of the Year," said the Kilkenny man.There were some standout individual performances throughout the year. Full back Shane Jennings was exceptional when Galway needed him in the decider. Donal O'Shea, son of former Tipperary manager Eamonn, was another who shone brightly. Kilkenny lost the final but they wouldn't have been there were it not for Ciaran Brennan's exploits in the forwards and Conor Kelly's rampaging runs from midfield. One man who can feel slightly aggrieved not to be named is Galway's Evan Duggan. The St Thomas club man was a towering presence in the Galway half back line all year and he was also responsible for the score of the year, one of the scores of all-time minor history in this year's final. https://twitter.com/officialgaa/status/1031164743455830017
