He has played Gaelic football for Westmeath and Garrycastle, as well as international rules football for Ireland. He won a Leinster Senior Football Championship medal with Westmeath in 2004 and was given an All Star at the end of the year. Playing careerUniversityDolan played football for NUI Galway while studying at the team's parent university.[1] He was unable to play during the 2003 Sigerson Cup winning game as a result of a torn hamstring sustained during the quarter-final.[2][3] Inter-countyDolan has been widely regarded as Westmeath's leading talisman throughout their ascension from GAA minnows to quality opposition. Despite the growth and promise demonstrated in their 1999 U21 All Ireland victory, Westmeath experienced their most successful GAA period of their history between 2001–2008. Largely due to virtually unmatchable talent in attack, Westmeath forced their way into GAA pundits' heads as upsetters and sometimes favourites. Two Division 2 league titles spearheaded by Dolan's attacking prowess and eventually, in 2004, Championship success in winning a Leinster Senior Football Championship title finally showed the squad's promise. Westmeath reached three All-Ireland Senior Football Championship quarter-finals since the revamped championship system of 2001, with Dolan starring each season (2001, 2004, 2006). In 2013, Dolan expressed concern about the gulf in class that had opened up between the Dublins and Westmeaths.[4] In summer of 2014, Dolan announced his retirement from Inter-County football following the subsequent exit to Cavan.[5][6] ClubAt club level Dolan has won numerous underage titles and back-to-back senior titles in 2005 and 2006 with club, Garrycastle. International rulesDolan was regularly selected for the Ireland international rules football team until the series was suspended in 2006. Other interestsDolan has participated in a marketing campaign for Ireland West Airport Knock.[7] He currently works as a pundit on The Sunday Game. Honours

"Winning the Sigerson in Cork wasn't something that might've been expected of us at all," McFadden says. "We had Lorcan and Brendan Colleran, Mattie Clancy again and Michael Meehan, who was unreal. Dessie Dolan pulled his hamstring in the quarter-final and missed out but we took in a lad from Mayo, Michéal Keane, who played as a sweeper and was brilliant. They were a good group."}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.hoganstand.com/county/louth/article/index/67709|title=What a year it was!|work=Hogan Stand|date=20 November 2003|archiveurl=http://www.hoganstand.com/county/louth/article/index/67709|archivedate=8 February 2019|quote="We [Dundalk] then went to NUI Galway [formerly UCG] and put in another great performance against a team that included Matthew Clancy, Michael Meehan and Brendan Colleran of Galway.
