Dermot Molloy

Dermot "Brick" Molloy (born 1990/1) is a Gaelic footballer who plays forward for Naomh Conaill and also, formerly, for the Donegal county team.

With a half-century of appearances for his county, he played for Donegal in two All-Ireland senior finals. A fixture in the Donegal teams of the Jim McGuinness era, Molloy won an All-Ireland Senior Football Championship title in 2012 and three Ulster Senior Football Championship titles, in 2011, 2012 and 2014.

He was educated at St Columbas Comprehensive in Glenties. As a ten-year-old he wrote in a scrapbook of his wish to play for Donegal and win an All-Ireland medal.

Molloy has had great success with his club Naomh Conaill, winning Championships at under-age level and then the Donegal Senior Football Championship.

He first encountered McGuinness while with his club and first played under him in 2009, a year in which reached the final of the Donegal Senior Football Championship, but lost.

He captained the Naomh Conaill team that won the Under-21 Football Championship in 2012. He also played in five consecutive Under-21 Football Championship finals, winning three from those five.[citation needed]

Molloy scored 1–4 (including one free) for his club in the final of the 2010 Donegal Senior Football Championship. He then finished top scorer overall in the 2010 Ulster Senior Club Football Championship, during which his club reached the final against Crossmaglen Rangers, but narrowly missed out on winning what would have been the club's first Ulster Football Championship title.

He played for his club in the final of the 2015 Donegal Senior Football Championship. His club won.
