Surprised this forum not up yet but ill gladly start it. Looking at the teams involved and the current situation COR must be thinking, We really need to win this competition to progress. At 5/1 in PP I think it could be a very good investment. With the exception of Cavan and maybe Down & Offaly there is nobody really capable of winning it. I believe we MUST win this competition and use it as a stepping stone on the road to progression, draw a line in the sand and start here. I cant wait to beat those BIFFOS !!!!! thelutch (Meath) - Posts: 1073 - 01/05/2023 11:20:49 2474883 Link

Group 1: Cavan, Offaly, Laois, London Group 2: Meath, Down, Tipperary, Waterford Group 3: Limerick, Wicklow, Longford, Carlow Group 4: Fermanagh, Antrim, Wexford, Leitrim Well I would have thought that that was a fairly nice draw. In reality, Tipp and Waterford are two of the weaker teams and while taking nothing for granted I would think we should have enough to beat both of them. Down look like a decent outfit but the game against Armagh at the weekend suggests that Tailteain Cup is the right place for them. This will be the hardest game in the group and if we can't beat Down, I can't see us winning the Tailteain Cup. Cavan look likely to top group 1 and Fermanagh will probably top group 4. Group 3 is probably harder to call. Hopefully the lads have used the time off to prep right, get the heads in order and be ready for this championship! Surely winning it is better than not!!

This is a good draw. First two games are vs. Tipperary and Waterford, hopefully setting the Meath side up for a close game v. Down. Group 1 is hard to look past Cavan and Offaly. Group 3 will be tight. Its a good opportunity for all four counties. Group 4: youd have to fancy Fermanagh and Antrim. Little discussed but the caliber of the coaches going head to head in this tournament will be interesting. Some big names. Young_gael (Meath) - Posts: 596 - 02/05/2023 14:29:31 2475097 Link

Of course, winning it should be the goal. Either way we must treat it with respect, "The we are Meath" days well and truely behind us. Group draw has been kind to us, home to Tipp and away to Waterford and Down at nuetral venue. Three games and hopefully a few more, all concerned need to use the experience wisely. seadog54 (Meath) - Posts: 2195 - 02/05/2023 15:11:15 2475127 Link
Lads If we cant win this competition I give up. We need to get best 15 on the pitch and we should beat any of these teams. thelutch (Meath) - Posts: 1073 - 02/05/2023 15:19:17 2475133 Link
Replying To thelutch: "Lads If we cant win this competition I give up. We need to get best 15 on the pitch and we should beat any of these teams." We won't even get out of our group let alone win it down and Tipperary will beat us id imagine we should be beating Waterford but with this team and management I wouldn't trust them to beat anyone Meathfor@life (Meath) - Posts: 85 - 02/05/2023 15:43:35 2475151 Link

Replying To thelutch: "Lads If we cant win this competition I give up. We need to get best 15 on the pitch and we should beat any of these teams." That brings up another question - who are the best 15 available to management and willing to play! ASaminthehand (Meath) - Posts: 422 - 02/05/2023 16:34:07 2475171 Link
Replying To Meathfor@life: "We won't even get out of our group let alone win it down and Tipperary will beat us id imagine we should be beating Waterford but with this team and management I wouldn't trust them to beat anyone" If we don't beat Tipperary (and I'm half Tipp myself!!) and Waterford then things are worse that I thought!!

Replying To Jinxie: "We wont win nothing.... So you reckon we will win it?.. ;-)" Haha only noticed that there ! Was fustrated when I wrote that there ! To be honest dont think we will win it ! But would like to see a few wins grahamc9897 (Meath) - Posts: 1175 - 02/05/2023 17:49:24 2475208 Link
Replying To mmc: "Full of positives" Ah yes because there's so much to be positive about this team Meathfor@life (Meath) - Posts: 85 - 02/05/2023 20:18:43 2475252 Link
Replying To Meathfor@life: "We won't even get out of our group let alone win it down and Tipperary will beat us id imagine we should be beating Waterford but with this team and management I wouldn't trust them to beat anyone" Three third placed teams actually qualify for the knockouts. It's then that the men, the boys and the lazy will be separated. So far we couldn't be described as men…..prove me wrong…….don't be lazy boys!!!!

Replying To grahamc9897: "Haha only noticed that there ! Was fustrated when I wrote that there ! To be honest dont think we will win it ! But would like to see a few wins" Kinda same boat myself. Probably around semi final level is where I'd see us sit at the minute. Whether a few wins on the way to a semi final would bring confidence on enough to go any further is another question...

Any idea when GAA will announce the confirmed fixture times and venues? urizen (Meath) - Posts: 116 - 03/05/2023 11:41:19 2475364 Link
Tipperary and Waterford is a good opportunity to build momentum, we shouldn't be slipping up in either game. The neutral game against Down, likely to be in Clones or Breffni Pk I'd imagine should be the group winner decider. Down going to Thurles is no gimme either, they won there by 3 in the opening round of the league so not a certainty they go there an win. But they looked very strong against albeit a feeble Donegal side, so Meath will certainly need a massive improvement from what we've seen thus far to win that game. hyperache (Meath) - Posts: 251 - 03/05/2023 12:28:53 2475378 Link
