Mayo's sensational Sam Callinan has seen his first-rate display against Armagh in the National League rewarded with a nomination for the GAA.ie Footballer of the Week.

The Ballina Stephenites defender was red-hot on the MacHale Park turf on Sunday as the hosts put Kieran McGeeney's men to the sword to continue their assault on the top of Division One.

His relentless engine saw him establish himself as a constant threat to the Orchard County, while he also contributed with a point at the end of each half.

The nomination follows on from another inclusion in Green and Red last weekend, where Jordan Flynn received the award for his showing against Monaghan.

Callinan is nominated alongside Oisín McDonagh of Galway and Dublin's Seán Bugler.

Voting closes at 10am tomorrow (Tuesday, February 3), while you can vote on the officialgaa Instagram page by clicking here.
