Hate to be a damp squid but I don't see us beating Westmeath. Our league form was awful to say the least. But it was great that we relegated Laois.

Still early. Let's see what comes.

Think it will be a close one.

We really owe them, but they do have a bit of spring in their step at the moment and we were lucky to not replace them in the cellar.

It won't be easy v Westmeath. They will be favourites, our league form was mixed, lucky to avoid relegation.

I did not see the logic behind cancelling the scheduled championship games 2 weeks ago,and play league games involving senior football panellists. What is the difference?
