Two Donegal players have been nominated as All-Stars in this year’s Team of the Year.
Brendan McCole and Oisin Gallen are the two players to receive the nod amongst a star-filled list of nominations.
Kerry’s David Clifford, Dublin’s Brian Fenton and Derry’s Brendan Rogers have been nominated for the PwC/GAA Footballer of the Year award – but there is no place for record-breaking Dublin totem James McCarthy on the shortlist.
