Replying To Royalblufill: "Well - we have more than a 2 horse race now!!! After the weekend fixtures, Summerhill and Tones look most impressive Ratoath will be ecstatic about scraping through and will undoubtedly be hoping they can get their injured squad members back to full fitness Ashbourne after scraping through the group stage - minutes away from a relegation game won't be too afraid of any of the other 3! Summerhill probably favourites now! As for the relegation battle - it will be equally as enthralling for followers (although not for the clubs themselves!) probably harder to call than the championship itself - na Fianna - minutes away from a championship quarter final probably can't believe where they are! Likewise Moynalvey who only lost one game in the group stages! Can Skyrne avoid the big drop!!" Have no skin in the game in either winners or relegation. But I think based on what I've seen so far summerhill will win it out. And skyrne will be relegated. Nothing against any one of the other clubs involved royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 11/09/2023 13:11:56 2503793 Link
Ratoath Dunshaughlin match was a great game and Dunshaughlin were very unlucky. Dunshaughlin management did a marvellous job and deserve a manager of the year award. Ratoath had the player resources but Dunshaughlin had the best strategies I have seen. They seemed to know everything Ratoath were going to do and had a plan for it Ashrules (Dublin) - Posts: 553 - 11/09/2023 13:41:29 2503801 Link
Replying To Maestro: "I will mark your words alright. I am not worried about Na Fianna, I am worried about them ruining the meath championship with silly appeals that they are not going to win. I see Meath GAA won their appeal with the Central Appeals Committee last night." Are longwood making a mockery of hurling one appealing ?

Replying To hyperache: "The Meath Senior Championship is absolute muck, Ratoath and Dunshaughlin was some of the worst football you'll ever see. A point each at half time.. Ratoath managed 3 points by the 45th min. Mad scenes at the end though. Trim managed a grand total of 2 points after 43 mins against Summerhill, Simonstown kicking 1-1 in the second half against Tones. Is the standard really gone that bad? No wonder our championship winners barely get past the 1st round in the Leinster club championship." Very harsh! Last year's champions in Kildare only managed a 0-6 a piece draw with Athy yesterday. And last years Champions in Westmeath were knocked out of the competition 5weeks ago! Ratoath hit 14 wides yesterday and Dunshaughlin 8. If both teams scored half of what they missed, we'd be talking about a cracker! Summerhill and Tones look best based on form. Ratoath have work to do and form to find!

I 'm not sure who will go down and there could be a couple surprises yet. browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2342 - 11/09/2023 16:01:19 2503845 Link

Replying To LettuceBFrank: "Any word on when the quarter finals for junior will be? Nothing on website and rumour has it, its this weekend" I can't seem them being this weekend. Ballinlough and Molyagh will have lads hurling this weekend for example Belt (Meath) - Posts: 272 - 12/09/2023 10:21:40 2503937 Link
When will the result of Na Fianna's latest appeal be known? Could cause serious problems if it is successful, which it has a high chance of being successful. BigJoe14 (Meath) - Posts: 998 - 12/09/2023 10:59:56 2503952 Link
Sure they've played a relegation match with another incoming. What are they appealing now. Foley91 (Meath) - Posts: 418 - 12/09/2023 11:21:09 2503953 Link

Seriously, no way,with the games played over the weekend is not done and dusted, is this a windup ? royler (Meath) - Posts: 278 - 12/09/2023 11:54:49 2503959 Link
Replying To BigJoe14: "When will the result of Na Fianna's latest appeal be known? Could cause serious problems if it is successful, which it has a high chance of being successful." Surely that is dead and buried at this stage with Don/Ash having progressed to semi-final and Na Fianna in relegation semi-final ? kingofclubs (Meath) - Posts: 330 - 12/09/2023 12:19:41 2503963 Link
Replying To BigJoe14: "When will the result of Na Fianna's latest appeal be known? Could cause serious problems if it is successful, which it has a high chance of being successful." Zero chance of any DRA appeal being successful, if even they will proceed at this point. Na Fianna's appeal was based on the fact that the Offaly Co Board deemed that their own regulations for deciding three way ties were secondary to the new Croke Park regulations. Having seen that, understandably Na Fianna appealed. However, last Wednesday the DRA ruled that Offaly Co Board were incorrect in their interpretation and that the county regulations take precedence.

Replying To LettuceBFrank: "Any word on when the quarter finals for junior will be? Nothing on website and rumour has it, its this weekend" Someone had a big boo-boo on the fixture planner missing a weekend for the junior q/f's. Not fair on players involved with Moylagh/Kilskyre in the hurling who have players involved with both Moylagh and Ballinlough. On the flip side Syddan and Kilbride also disadvantaged and could be asked to play at the drop of a hat. Terrible situation considering lads are now back at college and the evenings are gone making midweek game's extremely messy. Hard to see where and when these games will be played. 3rdmanin (Meath) - Posts: 19 - 12/09/2023 16:39:27 2504024 Link

They really need to push out the finals by a week to get all games finished on the same weekend. Cant see that happening either as Leinster starts the week after whats in the current calender LettuceBFrank (Meath) - Posts: 19 - 12/09/2023 17:27:19 2504030 Link
