Lads in fairness if we had a time machine and brought back Liam Harnan to 6 it wouldn't make a difference. Uncle_Fester (Meath) - Posts: 217 - 01/07/2015 08:36:47 1745748 Link 0 |

They need to get the midfield pairing right this time, as well as preventing Sean Kavanagh and Peter Harte dictating play. That means no player who is less than 100% match fit should play. Thankfully no double marking of Stephen O'Neill required this year. GlasagusOr (Meath) - Posts: 1348 - 01/07/2015 11:04:47 1745841 Link 0 |
It's crying out for donnacha Tobin to be pushed up as the legs in midfield....if he doesn't play in the middle third then he shouldn't play at all cause he's not intercounty man marker. A brilliant wing back/midfielder he is tho. Another example of the many players being played out of possition. Menton maybe too midfield either cause his defensive frailties were exposed when ran at the other day. Keoghan..Reilly..mcentee..Tobin...tormey..menton...Harnan all played out of possition Sunday....harnan maybe not, we don't know where he plays at this stage, he did I do well in the league at 11 tho. This is simple stuff, no elaborate system going to make a blind bit of difference unless lads are playing where there comfortable and able southmeathgael (Meath) - Posts: 914 - 01/07/2015 11:40:18 1745861 Link 0 |

I presume Jamie Queeney was on the bench last Sunday. I've given away my match programme! He would have offered some physicality and experience around the middle, for the final few minutes. GlasagusOr (Meath) - Posts: 1348 - 01/07/2015 15:45:50 1746081 Link 0 |
It is baffling how Meath have conceded so much in the two championship games when you consider that they had the best defensive record in Division 2 of the league this year. I agree with some posters that a number of our backs are being played out of position. Tobin should be wing back, Keoghan should be corner back. If Kevin Reilly is fit he should be full back or not on the team. subzero (Meath) - Posts: 69 - 01/07/2015 16:08:58 1746094 Link 0 |

So after the shock of Sunday, only today have I been able to look forward to the Tyrone game, when I first heard we had drawn Tyrone I immediately thought of 2008 when we played limerick and it was a disaster but as the days have passed I feel more optimistic about playing Tyrone, they were the toughest team we could've drawn so hopefully instead of the players thinking about the Westmeath game they can look forward to the big game ahead. with Shane O'rourke and possibly Conor Gillespie to come back for this game I can't help but think that the quality of players we have we can't lose this game. meathalltheway (Meath) - Posts: 789 - 01/07/2015 19:01:28 1746190 Link 0 |
Bitterly disappointing in Sunday and lots of blame to go round. If we had won the match we would be focussing more on the positives and there was a lot. We played great meath football and should have do sighed the game off. We didn't and that game back to haunt us. Meathmen (Meath) - Posts: 73 - 01/07/2015 19:20:19 1746201 Link 0 |
dreading next saturday. cant see us scoring much against a very defensive ulster team, and cant see us coping with our very weak defence. how you can concede 6-31 in 2 championship matches in football is beyond me. and its not like we were playing the dubs or kerry we were playing the average enough westmeath and lowly wicklow. niallermcna99 (Meath) - Posts: 7 - 01/07/2015 19:21:35 1746203 Link 0 |
Now you're talking meathalltheway! I'm certain meath will give Tyrone a good rattle. bert09 (Meath) - Posts: 1794 - 01/07/2015 19:41:07 1746216 Link 0 |
meathmen. you say we played great meath football,yet i dont remember any great meath teams of the past conceding 3-19 against a team that have never beaten us before. niallermcna99 (Meath) - Posts: 7 - 01/07/2015 19:53:16 1746220 Link 0 |
