This sat eve Meath take on Dublin in the Leinster final. Meath have already beat dubs once, but that will count for little in Drogheda. Meath also dispatched Kildare while dubs overcame laois. Really looking forward to this game. Also best of luck to the meath players in Gerry Reilly final. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 21/07/2017 09:50:33 2020397 Link 3 |

Some quality players on both sides. We often give out about gaa HQ but on this one they got it right.

Not Useless, but sure who remembers teams, underage especially, if they lose finals? You cant exactly say ' (X) has great underage teams, remember how they lost that final this year?' And im not slagging, being from Longford there have been plenty of teams forgotten about! Meath football needs to be challenging and winning titles as much as possible to keep Leinster competitive, its too big a county and footballing heritage not to!

Great win for Meath, delighted to see us win this championship particularly having beaten Kildare and Dublin twice to win out, a lot of hard work going on in Meath and hopefully this is the start of it bearing fruit. Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3734 - 22/07/2017 16:35:15 2020976 Link 0 |

Dear god that was brilliant, first off hard luck to Dublin, some fine young players on that team to come through. But I'm sure yous will allow us this one :) For our young cubs, you did brilliant, first time I seen them playing this year , great attitude and skills. Laat point this competition hasn't got the recognition it deserves. Again hard luck to dubs youngster's. And thank you for a great game.

Well done to Meath on your Leinster final win.Fully deserved. Saw them against Kildare. Some excellent footballers in the side. I'd say royaldunne's car was on auto pilot all the way back to Westmeath! lilywhite1 (Kildare) - Posts: 2984 - 22/07/2017 23:16:15 2021312 Link 1 |

lot of meath folk talk about walsh,morris and mcbride. but full back sean dunne is impressive. reminds me of the great darren fay in his style. ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 23/07/2017 09:05:06 2021446 Link 0 |
Would agree, we got to keep this bunch of players and not let them slip through the net. As has happened before. Proper nurturing and development with all the support they and their families need. This is one thing we can learn from Dublin, how to look after underage talent, this group can not only progress to a very good senior team but also a winning one. If they looked after well, and anyone with a Australian accent can keep out of Meath.

The problem lads is how do you look after these lads , there is no u18 no u19 next stage is under 20 , This is a problem now for every county as minor next year goes to under 17 , we have a gap of two years where the question has to be asked can you keep squads together without tournament play. I don't know if our county board have plans for anyone after this year , no one seems to know , would like to hear your take on how its possible to keep them together ps Congrats yesterday Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 23/07/2017 11:02:04 2021544 Link 0 |
