No Rowe for Dubs as Royals stay the same
Carla Rowe is a notable absentee from the Dublin starting 15 ahead of Sunday’s TG4 Leinster LSFC Final in Croke Park, while opponents Meath have named an unchanged line up from that which survived a late scare against Kildare in Newbridge on Sunday last. Country Crest Farms employee Rowe will be joined on the Dublin…

We can but hope for better leadership next time around
Did you ever look forward to something in life – like really pin ALL your hopes on it – only for the matter to turn out damp squib at best or heart breaking disaster at worst? How long have you got, because I have a list that could stretch from Dunboyne to Kilmainhamwood and then…

One change for the Ladies
In a nod to the fact that while a few results haven’t gone their way of late but at the same time they haven’t been doing a whole lot wrong, Meath have made just one change ahead of what amounts to a semi final in the TG4 Leinster LSFC against Kildare at Cedral St Conleth’s…

Cleary straight back in to skipper Royals
Meath manager Shane McCormack has opted to put captain Aisling Cleary straight back into his starting 15 ahead of their showdown with Dublin in the first round of the TG4 Leinster LSFC at Pairc Tailteann. This despite the fact that the Donaghmore/Ashbourne clubwoman missed the closing stages of the National League. Presumably in readying herself…

Opportunity , not redemption
There are those who would contend that the FA Cup doesn’t matter any more. That the big clubs don’t care. Bovine excrement. Manchester United would take your arm off to be still therein. Arsenal too.

Housekeeping with one eye on the next part of the odyssey
A couple of horrendous refereeing decisions – which of course the whistler will not face any censure for – may have cost Meath a place in the Lidl LNFL Div. 1 final, but it can still regarded as a successful spring sojourn for the green and gold. With that in mind, manager Shane McCormack has…

Another new midfield combination for the Ladies
Manager Shane McCormack has again shuffled his deck in preparation for Saturday’s date with the Dubs in Round 5 of the Lidl Ladies NFL at Parnell Park. Throw in is at 3pm and the game will be shown live on TG4. The positional switches see Nicole Troy reclaim her usual corner back berth with Ratoath’s…

Two sides to every story? You don’t always hear both
So Aoibhin Cleary is the latest Royal County star to be recruited to play Austalian Football League or AFLW, as it’s known in the Ladies sphere. Following Conor Nash, Cian McBride, Vikki Wall, Orlagh Lally and Eamonn Armstrong. Of those, only Cian and Vikki – temporarily – have returned to give something back. Granted, Eamonn…

Bermingham to make Royal bow
Dunboyne’s Katie Bermingham will make her first start for the Royal County in Sunday’s Lidl Ladies NFL encounter against Kildare at Pairc Tailteann. Meath boss Shane McCormack has made two changes in all to the side which defeated Mayo a fortnight ago for the clash with his native county. The debutant and the also included…
