Replying To bobkarlgees: "I heard a rumor that Andy Mc banned flashy boots and long hair. I did take a quick look and didn't see any yellow or orange boots on the Meath lads. I see a bit about on Balls.ie, talking to Mickey Burke. But Mickey never said nothing on it." Cillan osullivan still had long hair today. GG never went to wrong with the white boots and mad hairstyles. But I guess when you were that good it didn't matter if you turned up in a pink tutu :). Ahh a bit of discipline in it is no harm royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 08/01/2017 21:17:38 1944122 Link

Apparently there is a science behind some rugby teams have banned them, apparently they can be a distraction. I not sure Andy is worried about the science any just do sent want any individualism building up. bobkarlgees (Meath) - Posts: 1291 - 08/01/2017 21:37:42 1944129 Link

The first thing fergie did when he took over Manchester United back in 1986 was make the players cut their hair.and i think he ended up doing ok.

And when Moyes signed Fellaini everything went downhill :) I blame Eamonn O'Hara for all this fancy boot nonsense. GlasagusOr (Meath) - Posts: 1348 - 08/01/2017 22:11:01 1944151 Link

Yeah I heard that before, the science behind it has something to do with instilling a team ethic rater than any individuality. Again doubt Andy would care about that. Still good to see a bit of discipline royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 08/01/2017 22:22:51 1944157 Link

Ok I'm going to post a negative on todays game. We were missing someone to take a free from around 45 line. I know it will be sorted but its the only thing I could see wrong today. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 08/01/2017 22:28:49 1944159 Link
Replying To bobkarlgees: "Taught Downey was excellent especially First half linking up well with Menton for the breaking ball, and never wasted anything, and never looked to pass back either. I was really impressed with kennelly looked real good in the air also winning a lot a kick outs and set up some good attacks also. Also I was delighted to Ruairi O Coileain come I know very little about him but he played well when came has pace to burn, Some real intelligent play from him with nice vision on cross field passing. Jack Hannigan kick outs where excellent looked really comfortable, but all to easy for me. As compared to the Wicklow keeper he poor and that's been nice. He Killed Wicklow with some shocking kick outs. Over all Meath look very organized smothered and snuffed out Wicklow attacks Meath defense where never threatened, COS, I was on my own at the game and I half thinking of legging at half time only wanted to see some subs so stayed to end. Hope the next game will be changeling and Meath lads will rise to it. Good attendance hopefully that will continue." Agreed, I thought Downey was man of the match closely followed by G. Reilly, C. O'Sullivan & D. Keoghan. oldsam_newsam (Meath) - Posts: 638 - 08/01/2017 22:44:27 1944164 Link

I don't care if lads have hair down to their arses as long as they put in a shift every game. BarneysTie (Meath) - Posts: 263 - 08/01/2017 23:09:42 1944173 Link

Nothing to be learned from that. Wicklow went there to lose. RoyalBadger (Meath) - Posts: 600 - 09/01/2017 08:48:34 1944199 Link
Replying To ziggy32001: "Thoughts on D.Tobin at full back?" I don't think its a long term solution but minutes in the legs for DT which helps I think it'll be Dan o'Neill or Cormac McGill come championship time brian (Meath) - Posts: 2001 - 09/01/2017 08:58:09 1944203 Link
