Tipperary lifted the Liam MacCarthy Cup and supplied multiple standout performers across the championship. Dublin's goalkeeper conceded seven goals against Cork but produced a crucial save from Aaron Gillane in the All-Ireland quarter-final that likely decided that match and stood out as the tournament's best single moment. Another player switched to a wing-back role, allowing Kyle Hayes to move to centre-back; that wing-back scored 0-5 and used sweeping play to increase Hayes' freedom. Players from other counties combined defensive lapses with match-winning interventions, producing notable individual contributions despite mixed team outcomes.
Tipperary lifted Liam MacCarthy in the end - and naturally, they dominate our list of the championship's best - but how did players from the other counties fare?
Shipped seven goals against Cork but couldn't do much about any of them. His save, however, from Aaron Gillane at a crucial time in the All-Ireland quarter-final, probably won Dublin that game and was the best of the championship.
Ever dependable as he switched to a wing-back role that allowed Kyle Hayes to move to centre-back. Picked off 0-5 and swept to give Hayes more liberty.
