Armagh dominate All-Star football list as Dublin and Kerry miss out

The All-Ireland winners have taken up six spots in this year's honours list.

There are five counties represented and 14 first-time winners, including Craig Lennon who stands as the sole Louth representative within the fifteen names.

The prolific wing-back was the championship’s highest-scoring defender with 4-7 across the season.

The Orchard County lead the way with six players, including Footballer of the Year nominee Barry McCambridge, while runners-up Galway have five, including their FOTY nominees Paul Conroy and John Maher.

All three are first-time All-Stars.

Donegal landed two spaces while Tyrone's Niall Morgan is the man between the posts.

The 33-year-old goalkeeper is the only previous winner on the list, having won in 2021.

This year marks the first occasion since 2003 that there is not a single Dublin or Kerry player on the list.

The Dubs had four nominees after they were dethroned by Galway in the quarter-finals and the Kingdom three, following their extra-time loss to Armagh in the semis.

The All-Stars ceremony will take place on Friday at the RDS in Dublin, where the Footballer of the Year and Hurler of the Year/hurling team will be named live on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player.
