It finished 0-17 to 1-7. We dominated most of the match, but had a poor spell in the 3rd quarter. The final is next Wednesday in Tuam.

Ya. They have a few survivors from last year's All Ireland final team and look strong. We have a very good record against them at all levels in recent years, but this one looks like it could be a cracker.

It is watered down competition where its scheduled very poorly. Sorry Kildare supporters but Kerry would have won the U20 AI last year if Clifford and O'Shea was allowed to play as was the case with U21. We only promoted up one U20 this year to senior ranks and he got ACL injury since. We competed alright against a highly fancied Galway last night but weren't ever going to beat them when a number of our key players are missing because they are either injured or couldn't take part in training due to exams. Not much of a development grade for those lads if you ask men. ispeakwisdom (Roscommon) - Posts: 2487 - 04/07/2019 14:49:51 2205473 Link 1 |
Hopefully tg4 might show that game.

Laois easily beat meath and will face Dublin who Hammered wexford to make the final. Should be an easy leinster final win for the Dubs. They've dominated u20/21 in Leinster over the last 10 years and will continue to do so. Jack_Goff (Meath) - Posts: 2920 - 10/07/2019 02:59:31 2208818 Link 7 |
Absolutely......Dublin and Kerry are way ahead of the rest at under 20 this year. Tyrone and Mayo next best. Rayo1 (Galway) - Posts: 140 - 10/07/2019 09:10:17 2208853 Link 0 |
We're missing Diarmuid o'connor Dara Moynihan and David Clifford who are all starting for the seniors so we won't be doing too much I'd say. But I'll get a proper look at them tomorrow night in Tralee so il see if my mind will change on that. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 10/07/2019 10:11:51 2208885 Link 0 |
Galway hammered both Dublin and Kerry in the recent development league they look the team to beat. Kerry beat us as well, though the conditions were dreadful for good football. Some of these young Jacks are already in training with the seniors im led to believe in prep for 2020, so hopefully they might kick on for this championship with training with the seniors and being coached by Jim Gavin. There are a few i would be confident off going on to be seniors if not a special bunch overall, hopefully we get a run for our money, i believe Laois are handy at this level.

Given that Kildare won the All Ireland last year, I'd dispute that the rest have "no chance". U20/U21 has been the most competitive intercounty competition over the past 20 years. It's almost 20 years in fact since any county went back-to-back in the All-Ireland. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2018 - 10/07/2019 11:06:23 2208933 Link 1 |
Laois looked pretty impressive against us in the first round to be fair to them, we had only a handful of lads left from last year's side and new management team as well but Laois we well organised and had some talented forwards. if_in_doubt (Kildare) - Posts: 3685 - 10/07/2019 11:38:30 2208957 Link 0 |
Big game in Tuam tonight and a big crowd will be present. Could go either way. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11219 - 10/07/2019 13:06:03 2209022 Link 6 |
We could be up against it Vs Laois hearing that a couple of lads who were playing Senior for Laois this year will be back for the U20's and going all out in the Leinster final, now the seniors have been knocked out. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4441 - 10/07/2019 14:11:56 2209060 Link 5 |
Ya. I think it could be a cracker. It's more difficult to predict form at underage, but these look like 2 very good teams. If we lose, that's the clean-sweep for Mayo against us on the lads' side.

A very good win for our lads this evening which is a nice boost was after the weekend. PJ and his team have this group playing a nice brand of football and we kicked some lovely scores on greasy evening. We'll have either the Dubs or Laois in the semi final in a couple of weeks.
