Meath V Offaly - 7 Like(s)
By all accounts Meath were beaten by the better team today, I'm surprised with supporters wanting O Rourke gone so quickly like what have Meath done in the last 20 years ? I'm sure O Rourke did a lot of work with underage players in St.Pats over a 30 year career. Maybe it's time to face the fact that the quality of players you once had are just not there at this moment in time! Every team has to go through a transition period, living on past glories won't bring future success, putting the ground work in from the bottom up is what's needed, encourage and look after the successful Minor All Ireland champions from a few years ago. Embrace the TC and try and win it,

Galway V Limerick - 4 Like(s)
Can he give some examples of the simulation? I think Galway were by far the better team, if fouls are committed then frees are given and Galway have two unbelievable free takers to punish teams. Bad from the All Ireland champions moaning, defend the title and take a beaten fair and square , nearly two years since Limerick were defeated be extremely proud of that!!

Down Manager Alleges Sectarian Abuse - 4 Like(s)
It's shameful in this day and age and all that went on in the past. I remember well the respect given by Offaly hurlers in 89 when Antrim beat them they gave a guard of honour at the end of the game. Respect each other respect the game !

Replying To Awwwwnow:  "There plenty of 1 trick ponies giving their opinion on RTÉ and SKY. Some were lucky enough to win 1 all Ireland and some never won anything at the highest level. The secret is ... don't listen to them . Especially the 1 trick 1,footers..Then their opinion won't rag"
A good player but no where near the greatest to ever play the game. The tributes are way over the top, Kilkenny have lost players who have won 7/8/9/10 all irelands and there was maybe a piece in the papers and bit online and rightly so and that was it , they didn't get the RTE treatment. Brolly was 100% right.

How would Carlow win when the ref is giving handy frees to the Dubs. Very average from the All Ireland champions fair play to Carlow

Another great gone, what a player he will be badly missed by Offaly. Skill, accuracy and speed a player that would have got on any team in Ireland. All the best in your retirement

All Ireland Final - Who You Shouting For? - 3 Like(s)
Dublin, the attitude of the players, management and style of play is the best we are likely ever to see. 5 years on the road and it hasn't been one bit rocky, exceptional team, exceptional hunger every year. Let's just hope it's close and entertaining, good luck to both teams on Sunday!!

Leinster Football Championship - 3 Like(s)
Some effort from Offaly, played a nice brand of attacking football in contrast to Meath who at times had 13 behind the ball. Offaly had two glorious goal chances that they didn't take and some of their points were very good scores. The atmosphere in Navan seemed very nervous and the team seemed the same. Carlow up next for Meath which won't be easy either, Meath need to up the effort hugely if they think they will challenge the Dubs. As for Offaly they should get a bit of a run in qualifiers they look fit and put together well by Maughan

Replying To bennybunny:  "Westmeath are at about the same level as Offaly at the moment.. Offaly were hammered today.. And so were Westmeath. There is some progress. As Somebody else has said, their next game is not for 7 months"
Westmeath hammered!! They put it up to all Ireland champions. Westmeath are improving and should have beaten Offaly, they also have one of the best full backs in the country .

Offaly and Down are still in the All-Ireland hunt. Louth, Cork and Kildare are still sweating over qualification."
Sad to see Meath fall so low. They were 8/9 down at one stage I checked but must have staged a bit of a fight back. I'd imagine O'Rourke may be regretting he took the job after all. They are as bad a Meath team as any time in 60 years."]Gas the way there's no credit for Offaly beaten Meath, it's all about how sad for Meath. Is it a major surprise that Offaly won? 2019 Meath needed a goal in the dying minutes to beat Offaly, O Rourke getting a lot of stick for taking the job , Meath haven't been at the top table for 20+ years.

Galvin in fairness made a huge difference when moved back as sweeper, for me it was between him and Duggan for motm. Duggans point was outrageous, took few hits and surrounded by Galway players and still pointed
