Dunboyne up and trotting at least!
St Peter’s, Dunboyne… 0-17Trim… 1-14 A draw was probably the fairest outcome as the home side eventually got their season off the ground with a draw having trailed for the majority of the contest.

Ronan Keating was right! – 4/11/2023
How often have you seen a player excel at Minor level and be earmarked, as Michael O’Leary once said people were making Samcro out to be “The next coming of Jesus Christ” only for their careers to dissipate disappointingly before, in essence, they had even begun? Now, there’s often a very valid reason for such…

Natural leader Niamh lays down the baton
Hardly surprisingly, Meath manager Shane McCormack kept faith with the 15 who started last Sunday’s victory over Mayo for today’s local derby against the Dubs. The team announcement was, however, overshadowed by the fact the great Niamh O’Sullivan has taken her leave of the inter county stage. If ever scientists are attempting to build a…
