All-Star Gaelic Football Team: Armagh Lead The Way With Six As Louth Win Their Second

All-Ireland champs Armagh predictably lead the way on the PwC men's Gaelic football All-Star team for 2024 with six Orchard men honoured.

Five Galway men are also set to pick up awards this Friday night in the RDS with two Donegal players making the cut, as Tyrone and Louth have sole-representatives.

Louth enjoyed a successful year under new manager Ger Brennan and Craig Lennon picks up only their second ever All-Star, joining Paddy Keenan (2010) on their list of greats.

It was a groundbreaking year for Gaelic football in some ways with neither Dublin or Kerry reaching the final for only the second time in the last twelve years. It's the first time since 2003 that neither of them have a player on the team.

Armagh hadn't won an All-Star since Ronan Clarke in 2008 but player of the year nominee Barry McCambridge breaks their run along with Aidan Forker, Ben Crealey, Rian O'Neill and Conor Turbitt.

Tyrone were knocked out by Roscommon in the preliminary quarter final stages but Niall Morgan is selected - in a year of firsts - he's the only player on the team who has been on an All-Star team before (2021).

The inclusion of Morgan and the aforementioned Craig Lennon are the only changes to The Sunday Game team of the year, named on the night of the All-Ireland final, with Blaine Hughes and Niall Morgan missing out.
