Yeah im gonna get mine today. Really baffled by the attendance figure. Think its really unfair on the stewards also who are gonna have a huge job on the their hands tomorrow.

This is where the trust comes in, where we have to trust Andys judgement. Granted idoesnt look the strongest. Hope majority of starters have 70+ mins in them.

I know you are right lads saying on here the lads that left the panel are no loss if longford are good enough to catch us tomorrow this will be the reason. we have to be honest there is one or two lads on the first 15 that may not be good enough too I hope I am wrong

They would not be there if they didn't have ability imo. O'Brien O'Neill 2 wallace's Glynn. O'Reilly not bad players

Well imo if he is in the team he is good enough.
I have heard the name, but I'll be honest I've never seen him play to my knowledge, maybe I did. But I'd love be to know bit more about him, can you give some details? I'd appreciate it.

If he comes on tmw dunne you will get a look at him like prob the whole of meath. It's a strange one but maybe McEntee is pulling a rabbit out of his hat.lets hope so. Sounds like it's goin to b tight for space in this venue tmw.
Sean curran hasn't played all league has to b rusty could bite us there.

He's only back from a bad injury, Was out for over a year. Played really well in the O'Byrne Cup last year before sustaining the injury.

Why bring up McCoy? But to answer your question yes I have seen him play a couple of times, I did not single him out I just stated it was the worst Meath bench I remember. Interesting to see the club he plays with, wouldn't help with some of the criticism aimed at the manager in the past.

Agree with you RD. 2 wallaces are 2 pluses on the bench can do alot of damage when we need them.
Id a bet on with a lad during the week Ben would be starting he laughed in my face. Sweet 20 notes coming my way! Super starting team. He has picked the cream of the crop for this team. Some of what i believe to be up there with the top players in the country. Im well impressed & know he got it right. Bench remains to be seen but we will worry bout that tomorrow. With such a strong team starting i can foresee us going home on those buses/cars/bicycles very happy chappies, providing we have no injuries. I believe camp is in top form. Lads are positive, fit & raring to go from what i hear. Going into this game positive but not cocky is where we need the lads heads to be.

This has to be our year lads. Hon the Royal!!

Jesus you even more positive than me lol.
As I said I have seen most of the players. Curran was very highly rated in the past, if he back to near that then we settled at back. I agree apart from 2 wallace bench is a little inexperienced. However they are the ones putting in a shift, in training. Also heard the mood is excellent, everyone pulling in one direction and playing for management. Which hasn't always been the case as we all know. These are the lads who we have. I am actually getting sick of talk of those we haven't. 100% behind the team. I'm
Like a kid on Xmas eve. I absolutely can't wait.

Don't know of ANYONE who read too much into that win. Or actually who made anything of it. ?
It was a obc final. I'd be more interested in the win of Down today. Why u didn't mention that?
