Best of luck to St Marys in the Hogan cup final in Croke Park. Theyve brought a great buzz to the town and the county doing there school, clubs and County proud . Great bunch of lads and coaches . Lets hope they can finish the job and bring the Hogan cup back home to Mullingar

Replying To Afinestick96:  "Thought that was a strange comment myself mickcunningham. Wexford and Westmeath is the only game that really matters for both counties next weekend . Its a real 50/50 game in my opinion"
Of course our game is the one of primary importance, but if Sam Maguire is what we are aiming at-then the Louth, Kildare game IS significant as relegation for Kildare makes reaching Sam Maguire more difficult. But yes, that would be academic if we lost to Wexford. I think one has to keep an eye on those other results though, to get the full picture. Not so sure what was too strange about the comment.

Replying To GCCABU:  "If Kildare lose they could be relagated, but would remain in Sam Maguire having won Tailtann Cup
which means only one team from Divison 3 would be the hunt for SAm"
Exactly

Wouldn't say there will be anyone down here checking that result unless we win Sunday.

Congratulations to Coláiste Mhuire. Thought they had thrown it away near end.

Many of them county minor?

Congrats to St Mary's CBS. Some performance.

The future looks so bright. Hopefully we can follow this success with our seniors on Sunday.
