    Meath manager Wayne Freeman has announced an unchanged team from that which defeated Tyrone last time out for this evening’s TG4 All Ireland LSFC quarter final against old foes Kerry in Tralee. The match has a 5.15 throw in time and will be broadcast live by the competition sponsors. That means that Karla Kealy and…

    Pragmatic realism for the greater good

    With Sean Corrigan’s U-20 side due to begin their Leinster Championship campaign against Antrim in Kilmessan just 25 hours after his own team line out, Meath senior hurling manager Johnny Greville has taken the pragmatic approach of not starting those involved for Saturday’s final round NHL Div. 2 encounter with high flying Kerry in Trim.…

    The CCCC and The Hooter

    It was this morning announced that CCCC of the GAA – formerly the Games Administration Committee – have decided that henceforth once the Hooter sounds in a Gaelic Football match play stops immediately. Bullshit. Had that system been in place during this season’s championship, Ciaran Moore’s magnificent winner for Donegal against Mayo would never have…

    Jack staying in his box surrounded by riches

    From a neutral perspective, half of you would be saying ‘Damn it, Jack O’Connor is staying put with Kerry for another two seasons at least, knocking them off their f***ing perch isn’t going to be easy’. On the other hand, though, of course he is. Frankly, he’d be insane to vacate the manager’s sideline box…
