2. Cathal Barrett Rating: 9/10 This man looks to be in the form of his life from the first two offerings of 2022. He looks in peak condition and exemplified the fight of the team in the final ten minutes in particular, drawing a late free which gave Jason Forde the chance to win the game. The running game suits him down the ground, while he is still one of the best man markers around. Utter class.

3. James Quigley Rating: 7/10 Probably the biggest compliment that can be given to Quigley is that he has hardly been noticed in his two games so far, which is a good thing for a green full back at this level. Kept tabs well on Martin Keoghan for the whole game, and took the short puck outs well.

4. Craig Morgan Rating: 7/10 Another solid outing for Morgan, who had a good challenge up against Billy Ryan who was very prominent early on. More than held his own and will grow in confidence going forward.

5. Dillon Quirke Rating: 8/10 Quirke would have been less than impressed with his days work against Laois last week, but he showed the level he is capable of reaching last Sunday, with his second half a real standout performance. Came out with a lot of possession when the game was in the melting pot, and generally used the ball well. He is a really physical presence in the half back line.
