Senior Predictions Caulry vs Garrycastle - Garrycastle Coralstown‑Kinnegad vs The Downs - Kinnegad Tubberclair vs Tyrrellspass - Tubber Athlone vs Moate All Whites - Moate Killucan vs Tang - Killucan St Lomans vs Mullingar Shamrocks - Draw Hard to predict some games, but I think the Downs will struggle unless Luke and Kevin are back, especially with Andy Kilmartin and a few others out for the year. Also, listening to the podcast, what happened over the flaggate last year between the Downs and Kenneged regarding the theft of flags? Could have just been a few young lads messing around, but does anyone know the actual story? Fighting-Cocks69 (Westmeath) - Posts: 211 - 05/08/2026 09:15:26 2688697 Link
Club Chairpersons and Secretary's are to attend a meeting this Saturday at 11am. One item on the Agenda. The Centre of Excellence. Any ideas what they have planned to put to the clubs. Also 11am wont suit many! gti (Westmeath) - Posts: 249 - 05/08/2026 10:45:27 2688707 Link
Senior predictions: Tubberclaire v Tyrrellspass- Tubberclaire on a high after first win and should do it again Athlone v Moate Hard to call but Moate poor enough last game and Athlone managed a win so probably Athlone. Killucan v Tang Killucan will be to strong and should win Garrycastle v Caulry Must win for both sides but Garrycastle are stronger and should win.Caulry without Senan Baker and Conor McCormack are not good enough. Lomans v Shamrocks Shamrocks have good up and coming players but were poor at times against Caulry.Lomans experienced players will see them over the line. Kinnegad v Downs Has the making of a cracker and if Luke is back id fancy the Downs-this years format means you cant drop points early on but Kinnegad impressed in first game-going to call it a draw Bruno@1 (Westmeath) - Posts: 346 - 05/08/2026 11:16:01 2688708 Link

More than likely the onus will be pushed again onto the clubs to fundraise for the COE. kingfixer1 (Westmeath) - Posts: 6 - 05/08/2026 12:09:41 2688712 Link

Replying To Claretandblue: "Who should pay for it?" The county board you would imagine should pay for their own facilities. Who else would you expect to pay for it? DelaneyCup2026 (Westmeath) - Posts: 16 - 05/08/2026 16:15:11 2688742 Link

County boards and fundraisets should be kept apart-way to many spanners in the works Set up a good organising committee and let them at it-no interferance.A lot of good knowledgeable people out there who know how to get things done.Other organisations can successfully fundraise so surely Westmeath GAA can get the right people in situ and let the at it Bruno@1 (Westmeath) - Posts: 346 - 05/08/2026 17:26:56 2688746 Link

Replying To Iarmhisamhi: "Possible team next year injuries permitting. J Mitchell D Scahill C Drumm C Dillon T Baker S Allen S Mc Cartan J Lynam R Connellan M Whittaker R Wallace K O Sullivan B Kelly L Loughlin S Baker Half back/forwards are interchangeable ie Wallace/Mc Cartan Good bench options too" Ronan O'Toole is likely to enter the conversation. The panel will be stronger next year. The majority of players will benefit from the confidence gained this year. Some of the younger lads will be physically stronger with an extra year in the gym. Lads that were subs this year will hopefully push forward too. Johnny Lynam, Luke and Ronan O'Toole will be like three new players. Hopefully we'll see a few new names emerge also.
