What are the predictions for weekend games.The bottom of both divisions in senior will tell a lot .Shandonagh and Malachys should be interesting. I think Killucan will beat Moate. Tang an Caulry will be close but I think Caulry.Lomans to see off Kgad.. The Downs have players back against Shamrocks but I favour Shamrocks slightly.

Just stick to facts rather than smart comments. Ciarán Kilmurray has been Declan Kelly's right hand man in Offaly last 12 months. Buddah has been a county hurling selector in the past, trained Tyrrellspass successfully and Castletown hurlers and still playing senior football championship. Have you any suggestions?

He got promoted in the covid year when they split the league into two geographically and his side was far kinder.

Actually think Kgad might beat Lomans as they need a win. Caulry to beat tang. Athlone and Tpass to draw. Downs will beat shamrocks. Killucan to beat Moate. Malachys to beat Shandonagh

Why not wouldn't see issue Mangan as wedtmeath know his base or have him in as selector you aren't spoilt for choice do you want insider or outsider and Mangan while not intercounty would be assess even as selvtor possible with Keane maybe as he knows westmeath scene and has some management experience with good clubs. Not saying manager but could be choice as insider as a resort or as a selector Anyway no need to Diss someone's opinion it's valid and fair opinion .

Agree I don't see what you said as big issue if want insider even as selector Buddah could be under consideration if he wanted even as selector or some role.

Playing down your teams chances I see. You know and i know Lomans will beat Kinnegad easy. Easiest title for ye yet but O Keefe is a big worry if Niall Mitchell is available John Heslin would be be my pick as next Westmeath manager. lakecounty90 (Westmeath) - Posts: 106 - 23/08/2024 15:55:14 2566472 Link 0 |

Hearing The Downs have Mitchell, Loughlin, Lyram and O Sullivan all fit to play surely be very hard bet?

Lomans have never beaten Kgad easy and this year has been far from straight forward even if they're red hot favourites. Not playing down their chances just know it'll be a dog fight. Call it as I see it. All our inside defenders need protection I'll give you that and Mitchell is always a worry. However, people forget it was actually Jack Geoghegan who picked him up in that county final.

Why would Tyrrellspass suit Killucan? It's a very tight pitch and Killucan have a young, pacy side that would love a big pitch, likes of Clarke, Hill, Aherne, Leech and Cunneen.

Multy almost guaranteed quarter final spot in Intermediate championship after drawing tonight with Maryland. Possibly will need a point from Kilbeggan match depending how the bridge versus Kilbeggan finishes. A Kilbeggan win will mean both Maroon and white sides go through. Good result for Maryland as the draw virtually guarantees their intermediate status. Ballynacargy need to beat Ballymore to keep their Intermediate status. A Ballymore win this weekend relegates Ballynacargy. Loman's impressive dominance of their section of the junior championship continued as they easily beat The Downs. The Downs are not as strong as expected in junior having played 23-24 players in the senior championship but Loman's look favourites to win this championship. Their senior side looks settled and their juniors are notching huge scoring tallies, 2-20 tonight won't be beaten by any side in the various championships this weekend. They have lots of pace, fitness, experience and youth which the sole junior clubs will all struggle to cope with. Claretandblue (Westmeath) - Posts: 1840 - 24/08/2024 00:02:49 2566512 Link 1 |

The Intermediate Championship has been fiercely competitive, with only a couple of exceptions. Last night's draw between Multy and Maryland means that a Kilbeggan win against Bridge will secure both maroon teams' places in the next round. However, if Bridge wins, the group is wide open, with everything still to play for between Bridge, Kilbeggan, and Multy. In that case, the Multy vs. Kilbeggan game essentially becomes a knockout match. I attended the game last night since it was nearby. Ronan W was starved of possession, but when he did get on the ball, I don't think there's anyone in the county who can mark him. His accuracy on frees is impressive-anything within 50 yards is almost guaranteed to go over. From what I've seen so far, it's hard to imagine the winner coming from the B side this year. While their defensive play has been solid, their forward play doesn't quite match up. Garrycastle looks strong, and I expect Miltown to reach the final alongside them. Initially, I expected Rosemount to make the final, especially with how they were being managed, but after losing some key players, they won't be the same team. I do think Rosemount will make it to the semi-finals, but that's likely as far as they'll go. As for Multy, if they can sort out their forward play and reduce unforced errors, I expect them to make it to the semi-finals.

Wow really didn't see that win coming. Fair play to Shamrocks who are real contenders now. Bluelake (Westmeath) - Posts: 129 - 24/08/2024 19:36:36 2566603 Link 0 |

Really didn't expect Shamrocks to get that result, some amount of goal chances missed too. Shamrocks goalie is phenomenal and their defence was superb. Augustine (Westmeath) - Posts: 5 - 24/08/2024 19:54:28 2566604 Link 0 |

I told ye so. Missed a penalty and more. The Downs were very disappointing
