Replying To AthCliath: "That's the problem. Straight there. " We will win it". You've no divine right to win anything." Exactly. Wrong mentality altogether. Great win for the Dublin minors today. Excellent and mental strength shown to come back from 10pts down at half time. Proper attitude by our lads and will do them the world of good hopefully. Never mind the excuses from the meath lads...!

Replying To royaldunne: "That's it in a nutshell, we will reach final and probably win it. Things like today will make them better equipped to handle big leads in future." Yeah Meath are certs to win Leinster and maybe the AI too. THE_SNAPPER (Louth) - Posts: 2019 - 23/04/2017 00:11:11 1981799 Link
Replying To AthCliath: "That's the problem. Straight there. " We will win it". You've no divine right to win anything." Indeed we haven't, I agree with you. However this team are better than rest of Leinster including Dublin . They managed to beat themselves. Put it down to inexperience , dont let it happen again and move on. If that happens then all things been equal Meath should win it out. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 23/04/2017 07:33:45 1981809 Link
Replying To AthCliath: "That's the problem. Straight there. " We will win it". You've no divine right to win anything." Did you even read my message? You quote me as saying , "we will win it" when what I wrote was "we PROBABLY will win" big difference royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 23/04/2017 09:16:25 1981812 Link

Replying To THE_SNAPPER: "Yeah Meath are certs to win Leinster and maybe the AI too." Well we are certs to beat the likes of Louth should we be so lucky to meet :) royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 23/04/2017 09:54:04 1981816 Link
Replying To THE_SNAPPER: "Yeah Meath are certs to win Leinster and maybe the AI too." Exactly - according to one Meath poster they are certs for the Minor and their Senior team with the MESSIAH, will be world beaters soon also. Time for his meds I think...! ;o) Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3720 - 23/04/2017 10:30:17 1981822 Link
Replying To JayP: "Ah jasus lad...... Meath threw it away! No penalty at all. He just jumped on the ground! Meath 10 pts up couldnt miss. They just didnt turn up 2nd half. Strange" when a dub lad says to me at the game. "that was a pen" you know it was! :) ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 23/04/2017 10:45:50 1981825 Link
How can Meath be better than the rest of Leinster including Dublin......when they lost against Dublin in a Championship Match? Thats crazy thinking! Looking at Meath yesterday, first half, a strong disciplined well coached team. Second half.....ragball rovers. As someone who goes to a lot of games, that Dublin team and that Meath team are miles off the pace of AI winner Minor team. Stronger groups have come before them. Fair play to Dublin.....10 points back and pulled it out of the fire. Meath looked dominant first half and were dominated for the remainder of the game. To say they are the best Minor team in the Leinster after that performance is crazy stuff. JayP (Dublin) - Posts: 1772 - 23/04/2017 10:47:37 1981826 Link
Replying To ziggy32001: "when a dub lad says to me at the game. "that was a pen" you know it was! :)" Ah Ziggy it is not like you to go on about a penalty decision that wasnt even warranted. Meath collapsed but still get a 2nd chance so time too move on. On a side note - that rule to allow a team to revert back to 15 players in extra time when a player is sent off in normal time really needs to be scrapped. Crazy that it is still in place. Treating extra time as a separate match is so out of date...! Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3720 - 23/04/2017 10:59:18 1981831 Link
To all my fellow Meath supporters can we all just calm down. I have seen it with senior and with minor. We are lumping expectations onto these teams. We need to stop it. These aren't the Boylan Meath teams. Expectations are way too high and we can't live up to them. That's not to say we accept failure. Keep expectations low but when unacceptable things like losing a 10 point lead happen then we have to say it's unacceptable and not blame penalty calls. This stuff is embarrassing me as a Meath supporter. This loudmouth, self praise is what I expect from the Hill 16 Dubs not from Meath people LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 1452 - 23/04/2017 12:50:47 1981850 Link
Really looking forward to a potential game between Dublin v Meath A few lads need a good dose of reality. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20598 - 23/04/2017 14:09:56 1981859 Link

Replying To jimbodub: "Really looking forward to a potential game between Dublin v Meath A few lads need a good dose of reality." Can't wait for the final, really looking forward, and hopefully seniors along with minors will be there. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 23/04/2017 14:59:12 1981868 Link
Well done to the Dubs yesterday, it was a fine win in the end. I was at the game and our first half performance was very good but a game is never won in the first half unfortunately. After that we were very ordinary. Don't mind RoyalDunne he is forever spouting out nonsense. All our focus is on Laois now. RoylerKing (Meath) - Posts: 809 - 23/04/2017 15:02:41 1981869 Link

You weren't at the Meath v Dublin match and you haven't seen any of the other teams play. Yet you can say Meath are best in Leinster . How do you work that one out??

Replying To royaldunne: "Can't wait for the final, really looking forward, and hopefully seniors along with minors will be there." why are you saying this ?, It is a straight knockout championship. We have to beat Laois, then we could end up getting Offaly and Kildare or something. Minor championships are hard to win and when you take into account these lads are 16,17,18 anything could happen. Putting expectations on them for the sake of it. LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 1452 - 23/04/2017 16:13:51 1981881 Link
Replying To royaldunne: "Says the guy who said mod was a fantastic manager and should have stayed . Nuff said." Absolutely pathetic thing to say, I never once said this. This is a thread about the All-Ireland MFC yet you feel the need to bring the name of MOD into it. One word - Obsessed. RoylerKing (Meath) - Posts: 809 - 23/04/2017 16:43:04 1981891 Link
