Magnificent Seven TG4 All Star Awards for Dublin
By Patricia MonahanSun, 16 November 2025

ALL-Ireland Senior champions Dublin lead the way with seven representatives on the 2025 TG4 Ladies Football All-Star team.

The annual selection was revealed on Saturday night at the annual TG4 All-Star awards banquet, in association with Lidl, as the Bonnington Dublin Hotel.

Dublin’s seven winners are defenders Jess Tobin, Leah Caffrey and Sinéad Goldrick, midfielder Éilish O’Dowd and attackers Carla Rowe (TG4 All-Ireland winning captain), Hannah Tyrrell and Kate Sullivan.

Runners-up Meath have been rewarded with four TG4 All-Star awards, namely goalkeeper Robyn Murray, defenders Mary Kate Lynch and Aoibhín Cleary (team captain in 2025), and forward Niamh Gallogly.

There are two awards for All-Ireland semi-finalists Galway, with Kilkerrin-Clonberne team-mates Nicola Ward and Olivia Divilly honoured in defence and attack respectively, and for a second successive year. Ward and Divilly are also the only two survivors from the 2024 TG4 All-Star team.

There’s also recognition for the Lidl National League Division 1 winners and All-Ireland semi-finalists, Kerry, with leading scorer Síofra O’Shea named at full-forward.

And the inclusion of Waterford captain Emma Murray at midfield ensures a first TG4 All-Star award for the Déise since Rebecca Hallahan was honoured in 2007.

There are seven first-time award winners in the 15 selected by the Ladies Gaelic Football Association’s All-Star committee, as Robyn Murray, Tobin, O’Dowd, Emma Murray, Gallogly, O’Shea and Sullivan picked up maiden All-Star gongs.

Lynch and Divilly secured All-Star awards for the second time in their careers, while Cleary, Ward and Tyrrell are now three-time winners.

Dublin pair Caffrey and Rowe are now five-time TG4 All-Star award recipients, while team-mate Goldrick collected her eighth award.

It was a memorable night for the Na Fianna club in Dublin, as Caffrey, O’Dowd and Tyrrell all feature on the 2025 TG4 All-Star team.
