I know OLLIE it's ridiculous how our county boards have ignored the dire state of our county grounds, the same could be said for Kildare as well. It's no coincidence though that the 3 worst county grounds in the county happen to be near Croker Park, I'd imagine they aren't exactly giving us priority, although again our county boards need to be stronger and hammer home the point.

Yeah Htaem I agree with you. Another county beside Dublin which could do with an improvement with their County Ground is Wicklow. OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 02/02/2016 11:40:49 1821568 Link 0 |
The Gaa don't seem to care about county grounds close to Dublin. ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 02/02/2016 12:02:38 1821580 Link 0 |
Ye you could throw Wicklow in there as well, the only reason I didn't is because they've recently built a new stand but overall the ground does still need a bit of work. Htaem (Meath) - Posts: 8657 - 02/02/2016 12:48:15 1821607 Link 0 |

Htaem it is a long time since I was down in Aughrim. When was that stand build? OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 02/02/2016 14:42:51 1821652 Link 0 |
Goldrick hopefully some changes will be implemented next season. The Leinster MFL are trialing a maximum of 3 hand-passes and also awarding a mark. crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 02/02/2016 18:28:28 1821730 Link 0 |

The mark should come in.I remember one incident that annoyed me on Sunday,were Armagh let a Meathman catch a ball in midfield.As soon as he came down he was surrounded by Armagh players and Armagh got the free,I think a fine catch in midfield should be rewarded. ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 02/02/2016 21:44:39 1821776 Link 0 |
Ziggy in general that annoys the hell out of mr too. On saying that I would prefer that if a player makes a clean catch he is allowed the time for 2 or 3 steps before he can be tackled. The mark in my opinion would slow the game too much. Armaghball (Armagh) - Posts: 96 - 02/02/2016 21:52:48 1821783 Link 0 |
It's very hard to look past Tyrone 1 and Derry 2 for promotion. bullwork (UK) - Posts: 11 - 03/02/2016 11:27:32 1821839 Link 0 |
As a Meath man personally i am delighted to have the likes of Tyrone, Derry, Armagh in Div 2 this year. highking12 (Meath) - Posts: 184 - 03/02/2016 12:49:04 1821876 Link 0 |
Derry are proven league campaigners, There is no reason yet to believe they will be any less competitive this campaign. derryman (Derry) - Posts: 3246 - 03/02/2016 13:26:48 1821906 Link 0 |
tyrone gettin alot of credit and ritely so, but think some people are under estimating the quality of derry football, now that they have new management in i think they along with tyrone are a step above everyone else in the division. abitawit (Fermanagh) - Posts: 274 - 03/02/2016 13:45:15 1821914 Link 0 |
I think Derry are strong and always do well at this time of year and are usually capable of beating anybody even in Div 1. I would say that in terms of defence play if you are not able to put out a team who can defend man to man then you are not going to be able beat the top two or three teams in the country- indeed you will be able to compete with them, but not beat them. There are at least two if not 3 teams in Div 2 who would beat 50% of what is in Div 1. browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2342 - 03/02/2016 14:14:50 1821925 Link 0 |

I reckon Derry fans get very frustrated,not too long ago they reached the dv1 final,only to have an early summer and lose to Longford. ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 05/02/2016 20:26:50 1822726 Link 0 |
