Donaghy named GPA Footballer of the Year

Kieran Donaghy's breakthrough year has ended in the Kerry forward being named GPA Footballer of the Year.

The Kingdom forward was a constant threat up front as Jack O'Connor steered his county to their second crown in three seasons.

Donaghy was one of six Kerry players on the football team of the year.

Seamus Moynihan was an All-Ireland winning captain in 2004, and despite announcing his playing retirement, he picked up and award.

Kerry's success in the team of the year was added to by Aidan O'Mahony's inclusion.

O'Mahony was one of four Kingdom defenders honoured, along with Tom O'Sullivan, and was included at left-wing-back.

Mayo had three players named team, including ever-dangerous forward Conor Mortimer.

Cork's Nicholas Murphy picked up one of the midfield gongs as Dublin had three players included.

Stephen Cluxton had another great year in goal for the Dubs and has been honoured as goalkeeper in the team.
