Dessie Hutchinson, Austin Gleeson, Conor Gleeson, and Jack Fagan have all been named in the GAA Hurling Team of the week.

The Deise battered Wexford in their League semi-final on Sunday to book their place in the decider with Cork.

Hutchinson scored 1.3, while Jack Fagan hit two points from the half-back line. Patrick Curran put seven balls over the bar (four frees & two 65's) having taken up a share of the free-taking duties in the absence of Stephen Bennett.

Undoubtedly, Austin Gleeson garnered the most attention in Nowlan Park. The Mt.Sion supremo raised two green flags in the first half before hitting three points to help his team towards a 5.20 to 0.16 point demolition of Darragh Egan's team.
