Meath... 2-10 Westmeath... 0-10 A goal in each half from Clann Na nGaeil's Ben Corkery made the difference as Meath got their Leinster MFC campaign off to a winning start in Kinnegad tonight.

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.
