Man of the moment

Conor McManus (Monaghan)

AN individual haul of 0-32 meant McManus was the fourth highest scorer in Division One. McManus underlined his talent in last year's International Rules Test.

Playing against arguably the best AFL line-up ever selected, McManus was Ireland's best player.

Strong, fast and fearless, he had the talent and courage to outwit his All-Australian rivals. McManus has carried that rich vein of form into 2015.
