Well. What do people make of the hurling draws. Group A looks to be a tougher group with a few of the bigger hitters in that one. Hard to make a call to what 3 teams will come out of that one. You'd imagine Kiltale and Dunboyne should come out of the second group with a dog fight for third. hurlinglad (Meath) - Posts: 45 - 09/02/2016 09:42:44 1823778 Link 0 |
Will be interesting to see who kiltale play in the semi's. It may be better to finish 2nd in group A to have a more continuous run of games. Hard to see anyone touching them this year.. They are beatable, but the likes of trim and kildalky will need to be maxed out to get near them in a knock out game. They are the only two teams that can really give them trouble.

Kilmessan will have a big say this year. Paul Reilly taking charge as well as Marsh and Clynch returning to full fitness so they'll be there or there abouts. Kiltales biggest threat I'd say. begining (UK) - Posts: 300 - 09/02/2016 12:03:54 1823879 Link 0 |
Tones should walk the Intermediate. Agree that Kilmessan are probably Kiltale's big threat at senior RR (Meath) - Posts: 139 - 14/02/2016 20:31:57 1825343 Link 0 |
Are you mad Na Fianna will stroll through the Intermediate, Serious young hurlers coming through there. They won the Minor last year and will win it again this year. Will have a very strong senior team in a couple of years. Have a great manager who has experience in winning. latouche25 (Meath) - Posts: 520 - 17/02/2016 11:48:12 1826045 Link 0 |
It's funny seeing the "Only Kilmessan can really challenge Kiltale, Na Fianna to cruise through intermediate" messages. I'm pretty sure I saw those same predictions word for word written here this time last year as well. CastleBravo (Meath) - Posts: 1643 - 17/02/2016 13:42:03 1826100 Link 0 |
Be interesting to see you predictions castlebravo. Who do you fancy for the SHC? Who has a chance? begining (UK) - Posts: 300 - 18/02/2016 09:59:36 1826252 Link 0 |
Kiltale. Again. They're not invincible but they just have it all. They've the talent and a large panel where lads seem to slot in and out with no less effectiveness. On top of that is a ruthlessness, they can just put teams away and make matches a no contest, like with Kildalkey last year, and even more for Trim the year before.

Agree with the lobsided groups Castlebravo. Seen an article on here after the draws were made saying the groups are more even than they have been the last few years. Wouldn't agree with that at all. Kiltale and dunboyne will stroll through their group, with group A being the group of death. Be interesting to see how the easy run of games effect Kiltale when it comes to the knockouts. Didn't do Kildalkey any favors last year. begining (UK) - Posts: 300 - 18/02/2016 14:45:43 1826355 Link 0 |
no matter how unbeatable Kiltale look, it's very hard to do 3 in a row and there are 3-4 teams who could beat them on any given day. overthehill72 (Meath) - Posts: 334 - 19/02/2016 12:22:52 1826594 Link 0 |
Also on a side note I heard the Niall Murray is back in trim after a few years in oz.. Big addition for them. Good midfielder in the hurling and an excellent goalkeeper. Was sub to paddy o rouke on the county setup a few years ago but that was when paddy's long range was being preached to the heavens.
