Galway’s Cliodhna Moloney has been nominated for Women’s Player of the Year at this year’s Zurich Irish Rugby Awards.
The Kilconly native goes up against Edel McMahon and Linda Djougang (JU-GANG) on Saturday week (17th October).
Before the rugby season stalled, the Ireland Women’s team enjoyed some success in the Six Nations with victories over Scotland and Wales.
Robin Copeland is among the candidates for Try of the Year for his score for Connacht against Gloucester in the Heineken Champions Cup.
Andrew Conway, John Cooney, James Lowe and Garry Ringrose are up for Men’s Player of the Year.
