A strong Kildare to win by 6 and Meath by 4. jacktheDub (Dublin) - Posts: 944 - 22/01/2017 13:01:05 1947688 Link
Replying To jacktheDub: "A strong Kildare to win by 6 and Meath by 4." Dubs cubs look hungry but Kildare goals look too easy and could prove the difference.Only 2 in it at HT so interesting to see what Kildare will do in second half as they failed to score for last 15 mins or so of half.

Very spirited show from the baby Dubs here in Newbridge today. But what about Meath, slain in their own castle by the enemy, my my RD, is that not unforgivable :D realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8591 - 22/01/2017 15:43:06 1947699 Link

Replying To realdub: "Very spirited show from the baby Dubs here in Newbridge today. But what about Meath, slain in their own castle by the enemy, my my RD, is that not unforgivable :D" Excellent comeback from the "Dubs cubs" from 6 pts down away to Kildare. Some of these "Baby Dubs" should definitely see some game time in the League. Young McHugh is a real talent. Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3732 - 22/01/2017 16:05:06 1947712 Link

Replying To hurler32: "Great to See Louth getting the Better of meath today..especially with Joe Sheridan between the sticks!! The final should be played in Drogheda ....be a right occassion!" Good to hear Sheridan had to pick the ball out of the net against Louth rather than throwing the ball into the net.. ;o) Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3732 - 22/01/2017 16:21:03 1947721 Link

Replying To lilypad: "jesus boys, if we cant do the dubs 3rd string we really are wasting our time" Up there with some of the worst Kildare performances of recent times. 4 points in the last 40-45 minutes of the game. jimski (Kildare) - Posts: 381 - 22/01/2017 16:28:17 1947728 Link
Meath very poor today,but red card was an awful decision when Meath lead 4-2 ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 22/01/2017 16:30:52 1947730 Link
Replying To jimski: "Winner of Kildare/Dublin were at home" According to the independent it is in Drogheda next Sunday @ 2pm jacktheDub (Dublin) - Posts: 944 - 22/01/2017 16:48:07 1947735 Link
Replying To ziggy32001: "Meath very poor today,but red card was an awful decision when Meath lead 4-2" 2 surprising results really fancied a Meath v Kildare final. Very poor from kildare fielded a fairly strong team really expected more from them. Looking forward to the Meath kildare match in the league. jacktheDub (Dublin) - Posts: 944 - 22/01/2017 16:51:35 1947737 Link
Replying To jacktheDub: "Anybody know we're the final will be played" Looks like Louth next Sunday at 2pm. Dubh_linn (Dublin) - Posts: 2312 - 22/01/2017 16:56:46 1947741 Link
Replying To ziggy32001: "Meath very poor today,but red card was an awful decision when Meath lead 4-2" Can't disagree with that. The red ruined game, particularly when it was a mallee that resulted from a dangerous frontal hit on Reilly, but we have learned a few things GS Fri. Mostly second string. The real.business starts I. Two week. Well done to Louth royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 22/01/2017 17:01:09 1947745 Link

True,but Dublin were well beaten by Longford in this comp last year,so pinch of salt and all that. ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 22/01/2017 17:03:33 1947746 Link

I know its "only" the O'Byrne cup, But what a brilliant second half from the Dublin baba's there today. A bit frustrating at times in possession, but that wasn't a very weakened Kildare team and the lads dug in there.. I had expected us to go there and for the youngfellas to give it their all and come out with a defeat but not a humiliation so to come out winning after been losing by 7 at one stage is really impressive and it bodes well. They will get a crack at Louth now next week in Drogheda and then give Jim something to think about for Cavan in a fortnight. Savage crowd there today, Newbridge was chockers, All Dubs too from what I could make out. I nearly passed out when I heard Meath where beaten. What a shot in the arm for Louth that is.
