Have Meath improved in 2017? - 2 Like(s)
Replying To royaldunne: "How many points did we beat galway by last year? Or how did we finish in same position in league? Yes the were just two doozies I can recal about how little you know about meath football. I may not get to go to every club game I want to. But I do travel to what is becoming the anual beating of meath senior winners every year. And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the structure of the meath senior club championship is a joke. It is letting down the players and the clubs in the way it is set up. Now I wouldn't expect you to agree , but vast majority would" "Letting down the clubs and the players"
Are you having a laugh when change was agreed to drop to 16 in senior and intermediate who changed it back ... yes you guessed right.... the clubs changed it back led by a fee old fogies of delegates It is the clubs that have the final say in everything

The O'Byrne Cup - 2 Like(s)
Replying To oldsam_newsam: "Either way Biggy should have been replaced at half time. He was being targeted by louth players (again) and we had an ineffectual referee who was doing v little to protect him. Cillian O'Sullivan should have been brought on at that stage. This is not hindsight, I and others were saying this at half time.
I am 100% behind Andy Mac and am impressed with his demeanor on the sideline and how he is conducting interviews etc but he is not infallible & I think he made an error there." Bad bad Louth lads imagine targeting our best player. Not as if it would happen in a meath IFC final

Meath v Kildare Semi-final - 2 Like(s)
Novice my ass. We not fit enough not fast enough not tough enough not cute enough.
No plan other than kick high balls into 2 small men the rest of our forwards playing behind midfield every over hit lockout won by unmarked Kildare back. Every high kick out won easily by Kildare every short lockout put meath under pressure. You could not play any poorer if you tried.
Our plan seemed to be when we got the ball to go on solo run up the pitch and into the nearest crowded corner. and then kick it anywhere and say a prayer some meath man might get it
Whereas Kildare worked ball found the man on the shoulder and lay it off to 13 or 14 to kick a point
People will say we did better in 2nd half course we did as Kildare soaked up and let us play a bit.
65 minutes before a meath man got booked says it all.

Replying To nobull456: "Mayhem..............ABSOLUTELY well said this MOLLYCODDLING is a pain....It applies to other players on this forum as well. I cannot understand it as you say it is March etc. You wear the Meath jersey....thats the reward. If you dont give it your best you deserve any critisism that comes your way.
I imagine Andy wont be doing ANY mollycoddling from here forward. Some players when blown up to be better than they are lose it , and feel its ok to wear the jersey,and stand with hands on hips when the need is greatest. Andy keep the pressure on." Mollycoddling is not in McEntee physic

No Navan club players on the team? - 2 Like(s)
Replying To Meath_True: "Go away outta that BigJoe , can you tell me where Seamie Mattimoe comes in here . He's been tormenting Senior teams for the last 2-3 years for Kells . And done the same at Intermediate level for years before , I don't see him on the panel now . What's that about .I go to matchs and see who the real players are . Token players from the regions is not what its about .
Look at the Ratoath/Dunboyne bias , what's that about . half the County team is supplied by 2 clubs in the county .
Its a number of years since Dunboyne won the Championship . But they have a solid representation . DUNBOYNE.
Navan O Mahony's won the title in the last 3 years and who have they on it ........ Smell the coffee .
The Meath Juniors are managed by Conor O Donoghue , what club is he with/ from DUNBOYNE
The 2 recent debutants on the Meath Squad for the championships are from what Club DUNBOYNE
A player who is currently playing with a Senior Club ( but who no one has heard off outside of a particular club ) , came on as a sub in Meaths Junior Championship Leinster Match recently , what Club is he from DUNBOYNE .
Now I don't have a chip on my shoulder about this or any other thing in relation to GAA , but please don't tell me this is co-incidental .
Oh I forgot , what club did the current Meath Senior manager played football with and lives in DUNBOYNE
Smell the Coffee . BigJoe and the rest of the County" No chip on your shoulder more like a bag of spuds

Meath v Louth - 2 Like(s)
Replying To Meath_True: "Criningan, I've seen both players at their best and their worst . Burke , will have to foul to curtail Burns , and with that comes its pain , however Donnacha T is a better overall defender BUT , I have seen him loose his footing at the wrong time . And with Burns in flying form , that's not a good thing . I hope I'm wrong in either case .
I believe the best way to defeat Burns is with Speed , someone who can complete with Burns in the speeds stakes ... Do Burke / Tobin give you that . Will they be first to the 1 Vs 1 ball ." Aye ... lose his footing at the wrong time..... what sort of drizzle are you talking... suppose some great coaching manual would sort that out....

Replying To Cabbagepatch1667: "Referee is correct in this instance.
The rules state the ball must go straight over the bar, it can't be touched by anyone or bounce over it's a 1 pointer. I also believe if it hits the post and goes over it's a also a one pointer but would need or double check that." I think you wrong there if the ball bounces over its 2 points

He be the one smiling tru gritted teeth if meath do well or if the opposite he will be have a big sad face but on closer inspection will have smiling eyes. He will stand about consoling anyone who will listen to him saying I told you so. He normally can be seen in green and can be recognised by his hard neck.

Keegan Cup - 1 Like(s)
Janey a few years ago anyone that sneezed it was Micko's fault they left the panel. Now it seems the "reports" are there are lots of drop outs of course none is due to McEntees....... Fact is lads have lives to live and can do as they like.... Can it be seen as a lack of commitment in this day and age I dont think so. The expectation on commitment is massive, the expectation on success is minimal. Can it be seen as lack of ambition due to the Dublin factor ....Maybe.... But at the end of the day can it be seen as one of the reasons Meath are now well done the pecking order....Yes.... The players arent there to start and the few that are appear to be going away

Down v Meath - 1 Like(s)
Replying To brian: "Lads am i wrong i thinking is Firde not suspended or has he served that already?
On Harnan - maybe they're giving him club games to get back up to speed. Didn't he go abroad for the summer for study/ work reasons? And needs games rather than gathering splinters?
On the bench, i think it looks very light. There's no one there that strikes me as thats an impact guy who'll get a bunch of scores or will improve the defence. Maybe the wallaces and McMahon but they're three similar players.
On injuries - Tobin, James McEntee and Newman not being involved will improve the situation and strengthen the panel when fully fit and available
On U21's - i'm sure they've been given the week off and will be in fit and raring to go come the next match. I'd expect the two Conlons on the panel. (St Colmcilles guy might not play but have him involved for experience). Dan O'Neill and Ronan Jones once injuries clear should be pushing for starting spots. Personally think David McLoughlin will be brought in too. Being doing well the past two summers with Moynalvey in sneior championship.
I've seen in other forums a lot of posters writing these U21's off already, lads Kerry won an all ireland in 2014 with 11 players on the panel (that number might be wrong) from a team that got hammered by Cork at U21 level two years previous. Its never about the underage team and how it performed at senior, its about the players and how good they can be at the next level. The fact Jones, O'Neill etc were involved last year indicates they should be involved this year too (although we all know how odd MOD could be so maybe i should temper that expectation)" Harnan got injured with club last weekend
