Westmeath have a free shot on Sunday. No one is giving us a chance . They can take absolutely nothing from last Sunday. If they can go out with the mindset of leaving nothing behind them I think they have a tremendous chance . Meath will come to tullamore full sure they will win . Let's wait and see

oh they will Mick, they brought a huge crowd last year to O'Moore Park. I can imagine they'll have a big crowd in Tullamore too. Hopefully we do as well.

Replying To dickie10:  "same probably said about Louth, Louth havent beaten any top side in championship football and waiting 50 years plus to beat Dublin in the Championship, id say look after your own house first. How many times have Meath beaten Dublin in championship since 1975?"
Meath had to wait 15 years to beat Dublin in the championship , I wouldnt be high and mighty. Yes Meath have improved a tonne since we played in Mullingar last year. Robbie Brennan had inherited Colm O Rourkes team with a perfect age profile, the foundations were already there for him to build the framework. Dermot mcCabe hadnt the same luxury with the amount of players that left after Dessie leaving. We are still building a new team but badly need to get out of Division 3 if we are to improve. However I dont think we are a millions miles off Meath at the moment and the win against Longford will have boosted the confidence in the camp.

"Do us proud" If anything that's a bit condescending to Westmeath from you

Westmeath aren't much behind Meath or Louth. Louth haven't beaten any big team in championship yet . If ever they had the chance to beat dublin it's this year . Laois Westmeath and Kildare all bet dublin when they made the breakthrough
