Just one of All-Ireland champions Dublin’s five PwC football All-Stars comes in the forward line as Stephen Cluxton this evening became the oldest winner of an award at the age of 42, 21 years after winning his first.

Eclipsing Noel Skehan who won the last of his seven hurling awards at the age of 39, goalkeeper Cluxton claimed his seventh All-Star at the gala in Dublin’s RDS having only returned to county colours last March following a two-season hiatus.
