As you were for Minors
Meath Minor football manager Trevor Giles has kept the faith with those who lost out to Louth by the narrowest of margins and played amid horrendous conditions 12 days ago ahead of tonight’s Round 2 outing against Kildare at Fr McManus Park, the home of Skryne GFC. There are, however, a number of alterations to…

Louth get another one back in game’s best current rivalry
MEATH… 2-07 LOUTH… 0-14 The first observation to make is that, no matter what how bad the conditions were on Tuesday night that the Brains Trust deemed unsuitable, there’s no way they could have been any worse than what the players had to deal with tonight. It is important to state that in no way…

Strong second half sees off Skryne
St Peter’s, Dunboyne 1-15 Skryne 1-11 On Friday evening, Dunboyne’s second team travelled to Fr McManus Park and came away victorious when a stirring second half put clear daylight between the sides. The eventual victors held sway by 1-05 to 1-04 at the turnaround before kicking on after the break. St Peter’s – J. McCormack;…

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. Alright, alright, romantic dreaming aside, the manner in which the Royal ladies rebounded after last week’s disappointment against Galway was impressive in itself. That, combined with the fact that…

Experience trumps ingenuity but still positives to take
MEATH… 0-15 OFFALY… 2-13 First off, nobody likes losing any game, and the Meath camp would have loved the opportunity to get more top level mileage into the legs of their younger recruits. But, chances are, in the overall context of the season the Royal entourage will probably lose far less sleep about tonight’s outcome…

A studious performance in patches but lessons to be learned
ST PATRICK’S CS NAVAN… 1-16 COLAISTE EOIN… 4-03 First off, the best bits: inclinations that Clann Na nGael’s Cormac Smith is one of the brightest emerging talents in the county apparently are gloriously true. Secondly, the blistering attacking potential which was so apparent against St Joseph’s of Rochfordbridge was once again there in all its…

Seeing the lads from We Are Meath podcast (Davy Rispin and Mickey Brennan) release the nominations for the CICO Sports We Are Meath Club All Stars earlier this week gave yours truly the necessary nudge to kick on with an idea which has been circulating in the upstairs brainstorm for a few weeks now. It’s…

Cover crop showing further green shoots afoot
St Patrick’s CS Navan…1-20 Moate CS (Westmeath)…2-10 In so many facets of life, I have absolutely no problem admitting to being a traditionalist. Perhaps to the point of being old fashioned. For example, if I ever do get back farming, more classic machinery will be added to the PZ Haybob 300 and Amazon half tonne…

Meath Football Championships Update
And breathe! That was some weekend of club championship action in the Royal County. In the interest of fairness and transparency, it will be stated that, due to having to deal with some very trying personal circumstances, I was unable to get to any of the matches, but, thanks to the media miracles that are…
