    Another task ticked off the list but nothing on the shelf yet

    MEATH…1-21 KILDARE…0-10 Balancing gut feeling with reality can be a very tricky task indeed. Six days ago, from a certain angle, Meath were somewhat unlucky to come away from Pairc Ui Rinn empty handed, yet an objective analysis would also conclude that they left enough waste behind them to have had the game won.

    Strong Coffey and The Duke Of Dunshaughlin concoct a winning recipe

    MEATH… 2-18 ROSCOMMON… 0-17 Do not adjust your sets. This is not a drill. There may be genuine grounds for optinism. Not cockiness. Not arrogance. Hope. Whilst loathe to over egg the pudding, this was a significant shift put in by this Meath team. For not only was it a victory over a team who,…

    Seamus Lavin, Bryan Menton and Jack Flynn make intriguing returns to the Meath team while there are first National League starts for Brian O’Halloran (?) and Jack Kinlough as Robbie Brennan has revealed his first matchday panel to take on Cork at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

    Dunboyne take care of business

    St Peter’s, Dunboyne… 0-20 Curraha… 0-09 ‘The Who’ had one of their most famous hits with Taking Care Of Business and it would have been the perfect soundtrack as those who last lifted the Keegan Cup in 2018 got their quest for this year underway in Dunshaughlin on Friday evening.  In contrast, Curraha would most…

    Brave Display Points To Better Days Ahead

    Meath…..1-13 Dublin……2-16 Tears. The first reaction that comes to mind. Emotion for very personal reasons, immense pride at a performance woven thick with the acrylic of the famed Meath never-say-die attitude and then finally heartache at what felt like one that certainly got away. Items two and three are what need to be focused upon…

  • Lavin, McGill and McMahon return as Championship team takes shape

    Meath have made three changes for tomorrow’s NFL clash with Monaghan in Clones. The game – which will be shown live on TG4’s YouTube Channel – is of no material significance to already relegated Meath, however, there are bound to be players hoping to at least give the management a decision to make ahead of…
