giveballaghback thanks for your feedback. You will likely get two of those provincial predictions wrong.

So you cant take a bit of slaging royald, the king of slay cant take it, if you give it you you should be prepared to take it,try growing up, if you ever do you will see things differently and the last thing our neighbours in Galway and Mayo would want is you feeling sorry for them.

@HughHunt24 - Our U21 footballers had plenty of 'stomach for the battle' when we beat ye in the final in 2013.

Massive task ahead of us tonight.

Three years ago this Meath team reached an All Ireland minor final. They've also the added benefit of quite a few of this current side lining out for the senior squad over the last number of weeks.

We know ourselves how big a bonus that type of experience can have on an under 21 team. In 2013 the likes of Flynn, Cribbin, Hurley, Brophy, Fogarty and Kelly all lined out for the senior side in the O'Byrne Cup and league and that was bound to have been influential in the winning of a Leinster under 21 title.

To be honest the win against Offaly in the last round probably came as a bit of a surprise to some of us. I'd love to see us reach another provincial decider, we could badly do with a lift like that but unfortunately it's hard to see. Looks like we're in for a repeat of the minor final from three years ago.

Cillan osullivan (best player Meath has produced in years) James mentee daire Rowe , Kyle Dixon fiachra ward,
Heres a bit of info for you , not one of the starting forward v wmeath played in the minor all ire final, add to that cant see Rooney playing as he has a knock , and will mod allow anything to happen to Eamon Wallace in a u21 game while he is just returning from a cruciate injury? I doubt it.

Ok so you are missing one definite starter in O Sullivan who admittedly is a top player. We ourselves are short a few lads but i dont see the point in coming on here and getting excuses in early so i wont name names. Overall I think Kildare are a more balanced side so expect us to nick it as long as we keep Eamonn Wallace quiet.

You asked me to name names?
Anyway id also say James mentee would be a definite starter ,

11jm11 don't encourage Royaldunne he's a type of poster that will name the kitman and tea lady as ones missing. Looking at Kildare starting 15 tonight off the top of my head they are missing at least 5 top players for one reason or another but credit to the kildare supporters for not looking for excuses before the match is even played.

As for tonights games the very best of luck to the rossies i fancy wins for.

Daire Rowe,Cillian O'Sullivan,Kyle Dixon,James McEntee would all start for Meath.NOt sure if Rooney will play tonight either,he is needed for the Roscommon game and has been injured,BUT,I have a feeling Meath might pinch this tonight..

Yeah half expected that result, congrats to Kildare, better team on the night, positive is now the U21 lads can solely concentrate on senior, again well done to Kildare and best wishes against dubs.
