Dean rock grew up in garristown didn't he and has played for ballymun the entire time hasn't he or am I missing something? MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13718 - 22/12/2016 21:02:06 1941781 Link 0 |
I'm only taking the Micheal hill, rock has connection to Meath but nothing to suggest he should transfer, now young deegan is a entirely different situation, however his heart is where it is and no one can blame him for that

Well as a Meath supporter of well over 30 years let me say I have no issue with this unlike some of our neighbours who despite their success and dominance of late still have a fascination with all things "Meath". McEntee is looking at options, at present we do not have a Meath panel so no one has been drafted into a panel not any ex Dubs or Joe Sheridan, we have a group of players who are being given the opportunity to show what they have and lay claim to a place on the squad, any player who is willing to commit to the cause and play with pride in that green and gold jersey is welcome in my book and he could be from timbucktoo for all I care, if he has the desire and heart to play with Meath then that's all I want to hear, the Dublin hurlers have had no issue bringing some country cousins into their panel over the years and its happened in other counties too so I don't see why it's an issue for anybody being honest.

I don't think too many Dubs supporters would be too enamoured with an ex Meath county player lining out for the Dubs if the truth be told. Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3738 - 23/12/2016 13:04:26 1941890 Link 0 |

I agree with you on this so I think Deegan or the Ratoath boys shouldnt be let play for Dublin and the same applies here I dont agree with it at all Im also against the Dublin hurlers using numerous lads from outside their county either over the past few years to supplement their panel

To be honest I have said many times on here I don't like our hurlers ways of bringing non dubs on board. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 23/12/2016 17:11:11 1941928 Link 1 |
Actually I heard Lowndes was as good if not better than his brother. And could make dubs starting 15, the problem is internal club politics. Now perhaps the problem dubs have with this , is maybe just maybe they know what they missing? And better still should he make I through the selection process, might just ram it down a few throats come Leinster.. Me thinks some jacks protest too much, didn't really pay much attention until recently, however if it gets dubs backs up so much maybe its worth it royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 23/12/2016 18:02:00 1941936 Link 1 |
if anything its the meath club players i would feel for as they could be depriving two genuine meath guys a chance of representing their actual county. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 23/12/2016 18:48:27 1941943 Link 1 |
I agree with you Hill. The amount of non Dubs on the Dublin hurling squad doesn't sit well with me at all. Never has. If we can't win without player imports then....! Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3738 - 23/12/2016 19:06:15 1941946 Link 0 |
You must love it RD, must make our old rivalry seem relevant for the first time in an age :) Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 23/12/2016 19:23:38 1941947 Link 1 |
If Lowndes is better than the brother he'd be playing for the Dubs. Simple as that. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13718 - 23/12/2016 20:03:46 1941953 Link 1 |
Do you feel the same about dubs hurlers? And lowdes plays for Dunboyne so is in Meath club.
