Wexford manager David Power is adamant that his side are making progress despite exiting the Leinster SFC at the first hurdle.

The Model County lost out to Kildare in last Saturday's showdown at Croke Park by the minimum of margins.

Wexford had their chances to earn a draw but failed to take them and looking at the positives from the game, Power was pleased with his charges' efforts.

"I am proud of the effort the team put in. We are a young side, we are making progress," Power told the Wexford People.

"I think we've proven one fact and I want to make this clear - thank God it (the 'B' All-Ireland) didn't go to a vote in Congress.

"There are teams down in Division Four that can compete against definitely Division Three and mid-Division Two teams as well.

"There's a good young group of players coming in Wexford again. It will take a bit of time. You had maybe six of seven under-21s playing. It does take time. We have a lot of things to improve on but there's a lot of good things there as well."
