St Loman's and Westmeath midfielder Paul Sharry is in no doubt that they have many unsung heroes on the team.

Speaking to the Westmeath Examiner ahead of the refixed Leinster club SFC final against Moorefield at Portlaoise on Sunday afternoon, Sharry was adamant that they are more than just a two-man team.

Sharry and more so John Heslin have received most of the plaudits for their performances this year, but the former is adamant that they have heroes all over the pitch who breed confidence throughout the team.

"You'd feel confidence but then again, the unsung heroes is what gives you confidence. As in our full back line, there are guys there that are unbelievably tigerish corner backs and you wouldn't even know their names, but they've done so much work for us," said Sharry.

"You have to understand that every goal they stop going in, it's three points less that John has to kick or whoever, you know what I mean? That's what gives me confidence, them players back there that do so much unseen work, and then get the ball to John to kick scores. John is 110% one of the best kickers of a ball you're ever going to see, and you're nearly 100% sure he's going to score when he has it, left or right.

"But we've good players to get him the ball in places where he can score. So I've confidence because we have lads across the team who can do those jobs."
