Encouraging display in FF, great to win convincingly, we faded in last quarter with some players looking gassed out but they had worked hard, Shane Corcoran, Ryan Kelly and Finn Duffy lively in attack, midfielders were good and used ball well, defence solid.

Not sure about Offaly bigging themselves up, they won one match in the build up and lost six, they played Kerry in a challenge recently and were annihilated, lost to Wexford and Limerick too. There's some difference between sides at this level, we lost recently to Fermanagh and they lost tonight to Tyrone by 33 points. Antrim also hammered by Donegal and Kildare likewise beat Laois by over twenty points. Claretandblue (Westmeath) - Posts: 2080 - 26/03/2025 21:35:03 2598780 Link 1 |
To be fair Offaly did not build up this team at all. They had zero expectations. I thought Ormsby and Baker were absolutely outstanding. Duffy had a very good game also. Duncan, Corcoran and Boffatt also had good games. Meath will be a lot tougher test! It would be a great boost if the minors could also win on Saturday.

Ridiculous comment Offaly haven't been going well and a lot of our stronger footballers were playing hurling . Well done Westmeath better team tonight but to say we were blowing ourselves up is ridiculous.

Very good performance by the u20s tonight in their win over Offaly.Defence was very solid and the pace at which they moved the ball was very impressive and scored some great points.Shane Ormsby is a very good player and his high fielding from kickouts was brilliant but to be fair all the players put in a huge effort.A mention and congrats to Offaly GAA on the wonderful facilty at the Faithful Field arena-a fantastic set up.

Top class facility In Kilcormac. Congratulations to our lads on a great performance , we were almost completely dominant around the middle and it paid dividends.i think all our forwards scored from play which bodes well. Meath will be a step up in class but nothing to fear about these games against our neighbours.
