Cometh the hour.

You may remember yesterday SportsJOE reporting on a Ballymun Kickham's forward by the name of Paddy Small. Small, brother of Dublin defender John Small shot the lights out in Parnell Park on Saturday night after scoring an impressive 1-6 from play. And despite it not being broadcast on television like the doubleheader the night before that featured a Paul Mannion worldie goal and a Diarmuid Connolly worldie pass people still took notice. The Dublin stars were plentiful over the weekend, they included:
  • Dean Rock
  • James McCarthy
  • John Small
  • Paul Mannion
  • Cian O'Sullivan
  • Diarmuid Connolly
  • Con O'Callaghan
  • Michael Fitzsimmons
But it was Paddy Small that shined the brightest with his impressive tally. and plenty of people took notice: https://twitter.com/neilmacdh/status/914214745758142464?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sportsjoe.ie%2Fgaa%2Fstar-born-dublin-club-football-saturday-night-138432 https://twitter.com/adrian_farrell/status/914831676085297154?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sportsjoe.ie%2Fgaa%2Fstar-born-dublin-club-football-saturday-night-138432 https://twitter.com/tommynoone1/status/914205509242191880?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sportsjoe.ie%2Fgaa%2Fstar-born-dublin-club-football-saturday-night-138432 Well, the good people at Dublin GAA provided official highlights of the game and we got to see it all. Small could take them off his left He could take them off his right  He could bundle it into the back of the net  Do it from crazy angles  And under heavy pressure  Scrape over a loose ball  And take his man on Ballymun are going to need their new star man in the finest of form in a week and a half if they are to get over the stern test of Cian O'Sullivan's Kilmacud Crokes, a side that could cause them a real scare. Small's side has not won the Dublin Senior Championship since 2012 but are currently favourites to dethrone St.Vincent's, a team that has won three of the last four senior titles in Dublin with the help of Diarmuid Connolly.
