My point is if we got the millions Dublin got specifically for underage then we'd be competing for minor all irelands most years.

And it's vital because rugby and soccer are very strong underage in meath particularly soccer.
So much of our best underage talent end up persuing other means .

I was at an underage recruitment drive in Crokes on the Southside a couple of years ago, and honestly the facilities there, and what the club could afford to lay on for the kids and parents was unbelievable.

No way any club in Kildare or Meath could hope to compete with that.

Still whinging!!

True,but you don't have to spend millions to get things right.The underage coaching structure in Meath is weaker than an awful lot of counties.

Kids have so many recreational options nowadays, that the GAA will have to offer more than just a slice of orange at half time, the days of kids settling for that are gone. The dubs have the spending power to entice young people into the sport in Dublin, whereas clubs in other counties are struggling to survive.

There you go whineadams.

There's what a bit of self-belief will do. All the money/advantages count for nothing inside the white line once whistle goes. Pathetic moaning from you.

Well done to the Kildare minors.

Well done to Kildare Minors, Leinster champions 2015, after a slow start to the campaign they have improved each game and deservedly won today, Hopefully they can continue their upward curve in the all Ireland series. Well done lads!

Is there a back-door for minors in Leinster?

Don't think that's the case in Ulster; is that a bit unfair?
