You're right, it was a poor show from him, some will do their best to deny that but they'd be clutching at straws.

The players have been going through the motions.The culture has to change,you have to be fully committed if you want to be successful and they are not.

Anyone on here who's raising questions about Kevin Reilly's abilities as a top class athlete and footballer has clearly never been marked by him... Wedgie (Meath) - Posts: 253 - 10/07/2016 12:10:20 1879926 Link 0 |
I was never marked by him,but I think he was one of the best full backs in the country.Probably would have been better if it wasn't for injury.

Ah Yes ....Kevin was one of the best around when fit.......all history now.....lets move on ......I wonder will the steering committee do as it says on the tin? Suggest the road ahead ,and have a major input into meeting our immediate needs. Or is this pie in the sky stuff?? I do recall reading where it was planned they would have a major role.... Any updates from anyone on this?

Yeah I think it's unfair to question how good of a footballer he was. Personally I thought he was a great full back. Barney123 (Meath) - Posts: 676 - 10/07/2016 12:46:16 1879954 Link 3 |
There would have been a place for him on present team, badly missing leaders. Thought he was a first class full back who put his body on the line by constantly coming back from serious injury problems to give it his best shot.

No doubt on his day he was excellent fb, however I think these comments showed he was no leader, and should never have been captain.

Why cause Kevin spoke the truth , came out and said it , Instead of hiding here like all us, dnewlad (Meath) - Posts: 137 - 10/07/2016 17:58:16 1880195 Link 0 |
That guy's comments are all over the shop to be honest, after MOD was ratified for another year he tweeted his approval. I questioned him that after such a collapse against Westmeath why he would be ratified, he went on to sing his praises and voice how great the structures he put in place after the shambles left behind by Banty. After the Dublin match he tweeted something like "insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting different results", I replied back well you were the one happy about his re-appointment. Then he comes out and said Meath have no chance of beating Derry, great inspiration for his mates he played with last year.... so did he feel the same going to Omagh last year also?

But the point some were making was that his comments were not helpful and certainly haven't been consistent. He supported a Senior Football Management team who most could see weren't progressing and/or getting the best out of players!

He also supported Banty and said it was very professional....

Chaisleain_Abu (Meath) -You are correct and I would add if you play on a team (or part of a panel) you do not run down your own management unless you are a fool. browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2342 - 11/07/2016 14:40:59 1880978 Link 3 |
So in short , if KR was asked a question he should have said , the guys will do well , we have the measure of Derry , even though we were lucky in the League . Even though we looked like we were trying on a new suit just before a wedding ( defensive system Vs Dublin ) . Chaisleain_Abu (Meath) - Posts: 220 - 11/07/2016 14:41:26 1880979 Link 0 |

He's not part of the team or Management , and I don't think he's a fool ..... Just been honest . Which is sadly lacking in Meath GAA circles at present.. Chaisleain_Abu (Meath) - Posts: 220 - 11/07/2016 14:52:36 1880990 Link 0 |
Problem is we never reach end game without imploding

In my opinion this is a non topic. Royalio11 (Meath) - Posts: 757 - 11/07/2016 20:15:50 1881308 Link 0 |
