Meath V Offaly - 9 Like(s)

Replying To royaldunne:  "Look I agree. But we are better than we have shown this year.. we haven't scored more than opposition apart from Carlow . Also was talking to a Offaly man today, he was happy but stated that Offaly will be beat easily by louth if the don't improve massively. Said it is a very ordinary team and without some of their best players yesterday, but that Longford etc were better than Meath. Worst Meath team he has seen in 60 years (his words ). He said when we luckily drew with them last year they were a far better team. The problem is as yet we have no game plan, no structure, no heart , no fitness etc. that is down to management, we won't be winning all ire or Leinster but we should be beating the likes of a very poor Offaly side , a Limerick side that had already decided to sack their manager and a louth team we would have better players than. That is down to Colm. No one else ."
Would u have better players than Louth don't think so

Replying To Proudroyal:  "Well Brian,I personally think you would learn more from the Kerry game than you would say beating division 3(maybe Down ,Westmeath apart)/4 teams by a few points.I get your point winning will breed confidence but there is a big jump in standard from 3/4 to divison 1 and 2.I know getting hidings is not the answer either but apart from Dublin Kerry we could be competitive with most teams if the right structure gameplan in place.Who knows another manager comes in it may be the same but there has been no progress made since winning TC.On a new man in ,while of course most of us would like it to be a Meathman, I dont care where they come from if it improves the team then great..Of the names you mentioned Brennan and Bohan would maybe be interesting.I think Malchy o Rourke would be good but not sure he would take it?Alot of questions is right but important we get a good man in as the young lads need to hit the ground running in the next couple of years."
How about Mickey Harte could be available very soon

Replying To Rebel2020:  "As a neutral I agree regardingthe referee, I counted poor decisions against Donegal and none v Galway. Moving a free in for dissent so late in the game shows a shocking lack of empathy for the adrenaline rushing at that stage. Donegal ever so slightly the better team I felt but the soft goal, and Gallan miss the key moments"
Better team usually wins

Replying To royaldunne:  "Ok am I right in what I'm thinking? Kildare are on opposite side of Dublin in Leinster draw so they have a distinct possibility of still reaching Leinster final. As I believe louth are on dubs side too. (Really should have looked it up before posting). So the 8 finalists reach the round robin. Are cork opposite to Kerry and or Clare ? If they are they also will reach it by right. Should Meath get another win we may not need the bye from tc last year and get there on merit. (If we get passed Longford dubs will hammer us). So no chance there . I am again speculating but I suspect that the provincials will be dub Kildare Kerry cork 2 of Roscommon/Galway mayo . And say for argument sake Derry and Donegal. (Could be anyone in ulster just picking those two as an example) that is the top 8. Then it goes to league. Plus Meath. Majority of div 1, will be in it so next 7. One thing I don't know is the two who get relegated from div 2 ranked lower than two going up ??"
Louth on same side of draw as Kildare. Meath on same side as Dublin

Kerrys Greatest Ever Forward - 1 Like(s)

Replying To Horsebox77:  "Jesus that's a tough one - since I've been following Kerry: John Egan, Power, Bomber, Mikey Sheehy, Pat Spillane, Oige Moran, then there was Fitzgerald, Cinneide, Mike Frank, Cooper, Donaghy, O'Donoghue and Declan O'Sullivan - jesus lad it's not so easy to pick this - for graceful skill and raw talent I'd have to pick Mossie Fitz he could mix it a bit something Cooper did struggled with again sometimes whe have to judge players by the people around them - cooper and donaghy worked well together Declan too was the man that pulled the strings outside allowing the likes of Donaghy, Cooper MikeFrank etc to run up the scores. That's why I have to pick Moss Fitz he did it on his own when the days were bad and our summers were over in June when we had to contend with Autumn football in the league in October Fitz was always the shining light - that's why I think this year is so important the man again is on the sideline pulling the strings. Good question but it's madness though like trying to decide between Jacko, Mick O'Connell or Darragh differing time and a different game."
Gooch best forward I ever seen I would even say the best player I ever seen

Should I not be on it have u a problem with that. Donegal were 2 points up what would Meath have done in the same situation

Replying To Horsebox77:  "Yes fair point, why do both teams change. But seeing as the gold design Is a new addition and in only year 2 of the cycle this will i imagine be our jersey on Saturday. If you think back to the golden years video we rarely wore the Munster blue back then. Offally in 80, Meath in 86 and mayo in was it 81 semi. The final jerseys for 81 and 82 were class and retained the green and gold. Truth be told i love the current green and gold design by Paul but was disappointed by the gold/blablack addition. If it was gold/green now that would be a different story . Either was still expect a win Saturdsy night gold jersey or no gold jersey"
Team picked yet lads
