Offaly star makes GAA team of the week after super performance

Offaly stopper Paddy Dunican has been recognised for a super performance against Meath in last weekend's Allianz Football League Division 2 clash.

He has been named in the GAA team of the week picked from across all divisions.

The Shamrocks man played a huge part with his accurate kick-outs and a number of wonderful saves, including from Matthew Costello early in the second half and again from Jordan Morris later in the half.

Dunican was on course for a clean sheet until a controversial late goal for the Royals. With more than a hint of a square ball, Joey Wallace bundled the ball over the line after another fine save from Paddy.

It was a disappointing end to a game Offaly should have won but a point, in no small part earned by Dunican's stint between the sticks, keeps Offaly's hopes of Division 2 survival alive.
