Karl Lacey - Ranked seventh best in the Centre Half-Back position
Footballer of the Year in 2012, the year Donegal won their second All-Ireland title, Karl Lacey was a pivotal figure in the rebuild launched by manager Jim McGuinness in 2011.
Lacey won All-Star awards at centre-back in 2011 and 2012. He had spent much of the earlier part of his career in the full-back line, where he won All-Star awards on the left in 2006 and on the right in 2009.
The No 6 position was filled by John Joe O'Reilly from Cavan in the final cut.
