Don't be a smart arse. I explained what I meant in my earlier post.

Royaldunne, when was the last team Meath beat Donegal?

Next Saturday: ).
Ahh I'm only taking the mick. But still. I think teams in division two thinking about beating dubs is not the way to go. Walk before you can run is all I'm saying. Look as I said in my original post neither donegal or Meath will beat Dublin this year in championship, actually I don't think majority of those in division one have any hope either, the one exception might be (and it's a big might ) is mayo. Kerry Tyrone will think they can, but they can't , the rest is peeing against the wind. Dubs are unfortunately unbeatable, what we need to do is get to their grade, then and only then can we talk about beating them. To look too far ahead and always basing a year on how we can play v them is certainly imo not beneficial to building a team. We in Meath have learned that the hard way

Replying To royaldunne:  "Well all i can go on is last two meetings, ballybofey donegal needed a very dodgy free to draw with us. And were very lucky to get out of navan with a win. Couple that , we both in division 2. I think it's quite clear we are both as far away from dubs as can be. I think go wear may have wrote a song about you. Donegal HAVENT A HOPE of beating Dublin."
They've a better chance than Meath though.

Meath couldn't beat the baby Dubs 3rd choice team. A Donegal team with about 9 regulars would've devoured that Dublin team.

Meath and Donegal aren't at the same level at all, anyone can see that.

The same difference between them as there is between Dublin and Cavan, both in the same division.
