Kelly was unstoppable for the Banner as they beat Laois and Wexford in the All-Ireland qualifiers and their journey only ended at the quarter-final stage when Waterford got the better of them. The Ballyea man scored from all distances and angles, both from play and with the dead ball.
Congrats to Clare Hurler Tony Kelly.

Uachtarán Cumann Lúthchleas Gael, John Horan said; “Congratulations to our Player of the Month winners for November.
“Tony’s incredible skill level was on show in Clare’s run of games against Wexford, Laois and Waterford in recent weeks. He continues to be one of the game’s top players. Thomas was outstanding throughout Cavan’s campaign in claiming the Ulster Championship for the first time since 1997. We wish him and his team well in their upcoming All-Ireland semi-final.
“Congratulations to both players and my thanks on behalf of the GAA to PwC for their continued support in the promotion of our games.”
Speaking on behalf of the GPA, Chief Executive Paul Flynn added; “November was a busy month in hurling and football full of outstanding displays so it is a testament to Thomas and Tony that their contributions stood out and were recognised by their fellow players as winners of November’s PwC GAA/GPA Player of the Month Awards.”
