http://www.hoganstand.com/ArticleForm.aspx?ID=277439 Good article there on the main page about a Meath footballer being on Ireland's rugby league squad. Says he took up rugby in 2010............ he must have been inspired by Joe Sheridan's exploits that year. HurlingSnob (Dublin) - Posts: 220 - 27/10/2017 17:41:04 2058649 Link

His club is an amalgamation of two clubs that came together ten years and one of them clubs Shane Hogan played with it before he turned his attention to rugby.

Jesus you must have been up all night thinking of that comparison. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 27/10/2017 19:19:05 2058674 Link

Yeah it was original, seeing as nobody else made a link between that article and Sheridan. No I wasn't up all night since that article only got published today. And I started the thread about two minutes after reading the article. Happy to clear up your questions though. HurlingSnob (Dublin) - Posts: 220 - 27/10/2017 19:26:17 2058677 Link

Rugby is growing at a rapid rate in Meath. Is it to blame for the current malaise meath football finds itself in? 11jm11 (Kildare) - Posts: 365 - 02/11/2017 18:15:56 2059839 Link

Odd that some Meath posters are still sore about 2010 and the Louth posters in general have moved on. A guilty conscience is a terrible thing :) Breffni40 (Cavan) - Posts: 12118 - 03/11/2017 12:03:24 2060033 Link
slightly off topic but does anyone else find league far more enjoyable to watch than Union? leftandwide (Meath) - Posts: 91 - 03/11/2017 12:16:51 2060041 Link
Rugby League is very one dimensional. Run, tackle x5, kick. Repeat. m_the_d (None) - Posts: 1099 - 03/11/2017 13:18:58 2060076 Link
Replying To leftandwide: "slightly off topic but does anyone else find league far more enjoyable to watch than Union?" Definitely not, as the poster above says, too one dimensional. realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8591 - 03/11/2017 13:30:15 2060085 Link
Replying To leftandwide: "slightly off topic but does anyone else find league far more enjoyable to watch than Union?" I do enjoy league more than union but I know I'd be in the minority. I enjoy union too, but only Internationals really. Wouldn't watch too much Super League though, mostly NRL HandballRef (Donegal) - Posts: 520 - 03/11/2017 14:25:36 2060116 Link
