I must admit I don't know much about the minors this year.

Who are the players to watch out for and can they do well?

A draw against Longford today,we always seem to struggle against them at underage level.

Barry callaghan and his team have done a good job with the Minors over the winter and in the early part of the year. They beat Offaly well in the first league game and should have beaten Longford last week but conceded 2 goals in a minute - lack of concentration I think! There are still a few guys to comeback - James Conlon in particular will make a difference.

They are still trying out formations so it is still a learning phase - It will be good to see a few more of the panel get a run out - The next few weeks will be a good guide to where they are at!

Colm Coyle has the U17 squad this year.
Anyone named for the U16, U15 and U14 Development teams or do the management teams move up with their team meaning that only the U14 Manager needs to be recruited.

Colm Coyle and Kenny Morgan and the lads with the 17's are doing a great job with that crew too. A number of that team have moved up to the minor squad - Robbie Clarke, Oisin Martin and Daragh Nolan have started the last 2 weeks and a couple of others like Diramuid McCabe, Dan Devine and Connall Aherne have also featured

The 17s are out against Monaghan this weekend and the Minors play Limerick

Joe Treanor moved up with last years 14's to this years 15's - and he has a good bunch too! All the development squads will benefit from the facilities in Dunganny and it is great to see the likes of darren fay involved with the under age set up!

I've seen thye U15s a few times and from last year when U14,they are coached very well I must say.

After yesterdays result let's hope that Barry Callaghan, Colm Coyle, Joe Treanor and whoever else is looking after the Development teams is getting the full support and financial backing of the Co. Board. Supply chain needs to deliver.

An fear there is little hope in the county board backing the underage with finances they've cut back if anything. Shame really we completely neglect future players for meath and I'm afraid results like Sunday will happen more often. minors having to pay for their own gear or get nothing is wrong. I can only imagine what funds are available for the younger teams. Why can't the underage section not have its own sponsor? We are losing young players because we're not offering enough.

Just looking at pic of Adam Kealy for Dunshaughlin CC on homepage .....can anyone tell me if he's on the county minor panel ? The chap has pedigree and is a quality defender in his own right.
