Not expecting a great game of football if the weather is as bad as ppl say. Hopefully we don't fall into the trap Louth will have of trying to get us to hit them back. Louth won't care if they 2/3 sent off as long as they can get a few from Meath sent off too.
Horrible game to finish with. Hope we can build a lead early to take the pressure off

We can expect a midly dirty game here, Louth has 0% to lose in this game except their dignity over letting us win to them. But if we can keep our heads out there which we should bar one or two who do stick out that will fight back, if i can see it Louth can too, i just hope Andy has it beat into them not to react. Overcome this early on and go off at half time up at least 4 -5 points. Louth are not half as fit as us so if we give them a good run around in 1st half they wont be able for us in 2nd half but this is when things will get messy, so we need to be up going into those changing rooms after 35 mins. I foresee this game been all over the place if im honest but i really dont care once we come away with a win which i do believe we will get.

Graham Reilly always plays his best game against Louth and at least he won't have to contend with Paddy Reilly kicking the shins off him. Paddy Reilly isn't with the Louth squad anymore.

Biggy plays his socks off against Louth, last year McNally was his manager for the Cilles and he made sure he played the best game of his life. Sunday will be no different, been such a close neighbouring town to him he always makes sure he in top form for these games. Dont worry there will always be someone there to kick the shins and the rest off him, but he knows the form at this stage, dont expect a reaction but i do fear he will be fouled and put out of game.

I'd leave well enough alone. Unless Rooney is recovered from his knock, replace Flanagan for him. Although Kennelly did enough last day to be considered.

I think it's just the Easter holidays, coupled with many seeing it as a penalty kick (not me)
I'm actually very excited about the game.

Team named what you all think?

Dec that team will 100% not start. I don't see the sense in Andy constantly naming 'dummy' teams. I see the Meath Chronicle lads are also slating him for this.

Well there was only one change the last.
Look I'm not a fan of dummy teams either, but a lot of country seem to be doing. I would prefer if named starting a 15 (barring a late injury or illness) and see what happens. Personally I see no advantages

We can't persist with him at the detriment of winning
I'm not convinced, if I've is going to improve it should be at his club

Haven't been convinced by him at all yet. That been said I agree a fantastic talent. Hopefully game over early today and bring him on and let him show what he can do.

You would think we had a side of household names that the opposition were studying to work out any weaknesses. Should be fines for all county boards for messing supporters and media about

At best immaturity . Maybe just simply incompetence. This approach does not seem to have any impact that helps to improve performance.

Ouch my eyes. Poor game all around, Louth didn't turn up to play football, and we are getting sucked into a dogfight, some bad misses , but there is a strong enough breeze. We will win as our fitness and forwards are superior to Louth, but it will be squeaky bum time. Let's see how good the character is , this is type of situation that makes it breaks a team.
