Meath 20'S - 2 Like(s)

Replying To Nothingbutthetruth:  "Cathal O'Bric has a two year term with the 20's. I think were getting a bit carried away, we still have the semi final to play and he doesn't need the distraction."
Wasn't aware of this. Certainly wouldn't be opposed to O'Bric doing another year with the under 20's and the development panel to get players ready. But we need more coaching expertise on the senior panel to help those lads ages 21-25 who will be key players on the seniors for the coming years. If we were to go out and lose the 3 group games there would be huge pressure to have O'Bric replace the current management

Replying To northmeathloyal:  "A good win against the local rivals. Armstrong should be called into the Meath seniors for the all Ireland series. Hopefully Niall finnerty back for the semi final against Kerry. An mhí abu"
A brilliant player, his time will come once he keeps progressing, but to put him into the senior panel now would be madness, he's 18, has another 2 years u20. A sure fire way of jeopardising his footballing future. The Clifford example is a standout, by and large ya have to wait till it is at last their last year of 20s, example OHalloran.

Don't think COB will be distracted by a few of us shooting the breeze. But succession planing is never a bad idea, but I get your point, he is doing a good job with u20's and for now maybe that' the priority.

Replying To Fionn:  "Excellent idea in fairness. If COR has his wits about him, he would bring COB in as part of his backroom coaching team next year, the final year of his contract. He has nothing to lose, and Meath would have everything to gain."
100%! OBric knows the young lads very well but the final year with COR would give him a chance to get to know the older lads and for them to know him He could still do the 20s too!
