Limerick lead way as Westmeath's Doyle earns hurling All-Star nomination

Three-in-a-row champions Limerick unsurprisingly dominate the GAA/GPA PwC All-Star nominations, with 12 players from John Kiely's history-makers up for awards on 28 October.

Runners-up Kilkenny have eight players nominated, including hurler of the year nominee TJ Reid - who is up against Limerick defenders Diarmuid Byrnes and Barry Nash for the highest individual honour in the game.

There are also eight nominees from each of the beaten semi-finalists Galway and Clare, with Cork having three players recognised, two for Wexford and one each for Tipperary, Waterford, Dublin and Westmeath.

Westmeath centre-forward Killian Doyle is the first hurling nominee from the Lake County since 1986, when David Kilcoyne won their first and only All-Star to date.

Kilkenny breakout stars Eoin Cody and Mikey Butler, and Cork's Ciaran Joyce are nominated for young hurler of the year.
