Super Smyth sparkles as Meath brilliantly steady the ship
MEATH…2-14 DUBLIN…1-04 Do not adjust your screens. The score before you is indeed correct. Some turnaround from 0-10 to 2-16 on the August Bank Holiday weekend.

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…
