Keith Earls and Sammy Arnold accept their player of the year awards.

Limerick’s Keith Earls became the first player to scoop all three Munster Rugby awards as he added the player of the year honour in 2018.

Rory Scannell was also in the running for the award, having also previously won the Academy and Young Player of The Year. Earls says he’s happy to have gotten one over on his teammate.

“It’s great to get one over Rory. He wouldn’t shut up about it if he won it.”

While Sammy Arnold collected the young player accolade following a fantastic breakthrough season with the province.
