Anyone sitting at the table needs a Jack in the pack!
Meath… 2-22 London… 2-21 Jack Regan pointed twice in injury time to ensure Meath left McGovern Park in Ruislip with their unbeaten record in this year’s Allianz NHL intact, but that only tells a fraction of the story. Now read on… The prolific Kiltale clubman has been gradually introduced to Meath’s campaign in recent weeks,…

Spuds are only as good as what you serve with them
Meath…1-11 Dublin…2-19 When Sean Boylan took over as Meath manager in October of 1982, the Royal County hadn’t beaten Dublin in quite some time. Whether it was quite as long as is the current chasm I am unsure, but, in an effort to re-invigorate his then charges in readiness for the battle with the two…

ST PETER’S GAA FOOTBALL BULLETIN – 17/3/23
With it being the first weekend of club hurling action in the county, it’s a quiet one on the football front, though our two Minor teams do belatedly get their seasons underway and there’s also the small matter of a certain local derby in the National Football League in which our club will be very…

A handful of changes ahead of battle Royal
Colm O’Rourke and his fellow mentors have made five changes to the side which drew against Limerick ahead of tomorrow’s eagerly awaited clash with Dublin in the penultimate round of fixtures in Div. 2 of the Allianz NFL at Pairc Tailteann.

Royals reserve final berth with a game to spare
Meath…2-17 Tyrone…0-08 Second half goals from Eamon Og O’Donnchadh and substitute Paddy Barnwell put a coat of gloss on a polished Meath performance in O’Neill’s Healy Park, Omagh as the visitors booked their place in the Allianz NHL Div. 2B Final with a game to spare. On a weekend that, locally at least, was a…

Meath team for Tyrone trip
Meath manager Seoirse Bulfin has shuffled his deck somewhat ahead of tomorrow’s Allianz NHL Div. 2B clash with Tyrone at O’Neill’s Healy Park. The Royal County will be aiming to continue their unbeaten run in the competition. Ace marksman Jack Regan (Kiltale) will lead the attack from the 40, while Seanie Geraghty reverts to midfield…

A hard habit to break
Meath…2-11 Limerick…0-17 In what turned out to be Mick O’Dowd’s last game as Meath manager, his charges led Derry by seven points at half time in an All Ireland SFC Qualifier before capitulating spectacularly after half time. This corner cannot recall whether it had happened prior to that, but it certainly has been a habit…

Two changes for Treaty trip
The Meath team for Sunday’s crucial Allianz NFL clash with Limerick shows two changes from that which lost out to Louth last weekend. Both alterations are enforced, with Seneschalstown’s Cathal Hickey replacing the suspended Harry O’Higgins and the experienced Padraic Harnan making his first appearance of the season. The Moynalvey clubman is listed to start…

Meath self destruct in derby disaster
Meath… 1-12 Louth… 1-15 I only wish our manager’s optimism in his post match comments after Meath had somehow contrived to throw away a hard earned front foot position against Louth in Round 4 of the Allianz NFL at Pairc Tailteann could be shared. When asked by Brendan Cummins about looking down the table rather…
