Meath LGFA will, at their meeting of September 11th, put forward the name of Kildare man Shane McCormack as the preferred candidate to be ratified to assume the position of county senior team manager. The former Kildare men’s custodian has plenty of managerial experience having most recently guided Armagh to a Lidl Ladies NFL Div.… Read More Meath opt for McCormack
No doubt there will be players who weren’t part of the Meath senior football panel this season will have caught the eye of Colm O’Rourke and his fellow mentors thus far in the local club championships and – if they aren’t called in directly – they will surely be aiming to utilise the Regional Championships… Read More Royal rethink required as duo depart
If there’s a sound system being piped into the Meath Ladies dressing room, you suspect Willie Nelson would be atop the playlist from Spotify at presently – I can’t wait to be on the road again. I do not know the ins and outs of what ultimately led to Davy Nelson’s departure as their manager,… Read More Champions ready for the road again

This corner has no intention of going into the nuts and bolts of why Davy Nelson and his team stepped down. Quite simply because they are not known.

Now… Read More Return of three jewels boost hopes of holding onto the crown

MEATH:… Read More Meath bolster their spine for voyage to The ‘Lough
Back with another video update after far too long (again, I know) having been held up with a bad run of injuries and illness. The main focus of this offering centres on the unacceptable conundrum faced by dual players of Camogie and Ladies Football and how everyone – individual players and teams alike – suffer… Read More Watch “Fixture chaos for lady dual players” on YouTube
Emma Duggan’s inclusion at centre field is most noteworthy of three changes announced by Meath manager Davy Nelson from the side which lost to Mayo ahead of the trip to Kerry in the latest round of the Lidl Ladies NFL. While it seems highly unlikely the Dunboyne clubwoman will line out as selected, her inclusion… Read More Meath make three changes for Kerry trip
Meath…0-09 Galway…0-09 The above headline might give the impression that it was the Davy Nelson’s side who equalised – which wasn’t the case – but given the way the Connacht side dominated for long spells over the hour, it’d be ventured the locals will be glad to have got something from their third Lidl Ladies… Read More Duggy makes the difference as Royals rally for draw
