Ahead of Sunday's NHL final at Croke Park, we're asking you to pick the best Waterford hurler of the campaign. The results will be revealed on Friday's Lár Na Páirce after the 6 o'clock news. Vote for your favourite below from the five nominees.

Stephen Bennett
The All Ireland minor and under 21 winner has taken on the free taking duties and scored a whopping 4-76 in seven starts during this year's league. He was man of the match against Offaly and Clare, shooting sixteen points on both occasions.

Thomas Ryan
4-6 from play from the Tallow tearaway in five league outings. His solo effort against Laois was an early candidate for goal of the year. The 29 year old also found the net at home to Carlow and away to Dublin.

Calum Lyons
The find of the league for Paraic Fanning. In the absence of big name defenders, the Ballyduff Lower bolter has made the most of his opportunity. He produced a strong seventy minutes against Galway, keeping Niall Burke scoreless and striking the lead point from 65 metres.

Jamie Barron
The top midfielder in the country right now. The Fourmile flyer was named man of the match in the league semi final after lifting his team out a sluggish start. The two-time All Star has also chipped in with nine points from play.

Kevin Moran
The former captain has settled into the number seven role, driving the second half comeback against Galway at Walsh Park. The De La Salle stalwart landed two long range points in Parnell Park and made that goal saving tackle on Joe Canning in the last minute of the semi final.
