Replying To endgame: "A provincial title is a big deal for Westmeath who have only won two of them. It's also a big deal in Roscommon even though we have 25 of them. I hope I'm wrong but both teams may struggle to maintain the momentum into the All Ireland series even though Westmeath have a lot a handier game than Roscommon have next. Our match against Tyrone will be a really tough one and a big test for Roscommon."
Momentum is a big thing though and you rather have it than not.

Where's the positivity. With the right mindset everything is possible.

It's great to be where Roscommon are. A first home Connacht title for 25 years and a first home championship win over Galway for 36 years. We're smiling but Tyrone are a tough draw. Best of luck to Roscommon team and management on Sunday.

No Darragh Canavan for Tyrone but he missed the majority of last game where they pushed Armagh all the way.
Tough competitive encounter expected. In Kennedy,Fitzpatrick they have one of the best midfield pairings in the country and good full forward in Donnelly,McCurry,Jordan that will need to be kept tabs on. Kieran McGeary returning to their starting team a major boost also.
The very best of luck to all the Roscommon players and management on Sunday in Dr Hyde Park.
