What other very weak team? The system last year had an even better 'gradual increase in difficulty'. The knock out game against tier 1 opposition was against the bottom team in the group. Not sure how anyone could defend a system where a tean could win 3 out of 3 and get knocked out while up to 2 teams losing 3 out of 3 could go through. Kind of explains where these systems come from I suppose. Maroooned (Westmeath) - Posts: 13 - 26/04/2026 17:35:00 2668849 Link 0 |

You are the one spouting nonsense. Firstly the 2025 minor championship has nothing to do with 2026 as the vast majority of the players are not eligible. If you have to seed teams it should be done on the basis of under 16 results. Secondly any team entering any championship should do so on a level playing field which is clearly not the case as Kilkenny,Dublin,Wexford and Galway a non Leinster county were GUARANTEED THREE games, Westmeath were guaranteed ONE against another non Leinster county with a game under their belt. I have spoken to players. Have you? They are as young men shocked by this ludicrous championship where you dont play any matches against the teams in the group they are in. Name me one successful championship run on this basis. You are defending the indefensible and it appears to me you doth protest too much which opens up many scenarios as to why you are so aggressive in its defence. jobber (Westmeath) - Posts: 1930 - 26/04/2026 18:42:42 2668903 Link 0 |
