Replying To Gantric: "Down in the Tailteann Cup so, they might offer some challenge but I would still not show my hand here and wait for the proper qualifiers." It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

Replying To hootervillian: "How many All Irelands have you got. You win a game and you start spouting. The Kerrys, Galways, Corks and Dubs can talk but Westmeath really have very little to talk about." Lot more tonight than ye. What's Robbie B doing with the lads in the five weeks off!!!!!!

Replying To southmeathgael: "I was there, no they didnt, stop making stuff up. Lack of humility in victory just shows how winning isn't really something you are used too. We take it as a compliment when a team goes on like beating us is winning their all ireland. Hope you enjoyed the 2 week celebrations" Two more weeks now to celebrate and plan for final!!!

Brilliant from Westmeath all over the park today especially in extra time when after being deflated with a last second point taking victory away from them -they powered on in extra time and were worthy winners.Huge support for Westmeath today which was great to see and great for the lads-roll on the 17th and a crack at the Dubs in Croker.

Replying To Joeynyc: "Time to stop crying about Luke not playing.
Yea be good to have him.They lost to wexford and Laois with him, Wicklow last year.
So be it. There's enough talent on the pitch to win today." Pretty prophetic post. One of our greatest ever victories. Every player a hero. Three more championship games guaranteed. Brilliant support too.

Replying To Tadhg2020: "Sure that was decided too.." Thats a decision that would need revisiting if we went back to a 5 team Leinster Championship. Not fair that any Munster county can have a poor year with no penalty for it, while no Leinster county can.
Relegation would add a layer of excitement to the Munster Championship also.

Replying To Doylerwex: "You realise areas not colonised by Britain leaves pretty slim pickings. I'm sure you're mistaken. Where are "all the immigrants" from Mars?" Slim pickings? The top 10 countries of origin for migrants in the UK, by country of birth. According to the 2020/2021 census, includes Poland, Romania, Italy and Germany (over a million and half in total). That's the official list. But you can be sure, there are hundreds of thousands more from all over the world, who would not like to be on a census form.

It will be a hard place to go, but Monaghan are likely to be coming into it on the back of a heavy defeat to Armagh. We might get a second crack at the Rossies then....." Yes keep these posts coming lads!!!

To a man westmeath were outstanding today but I have to give special credit to the back three dillion, drumm and scahill outstanding. Defenders dont get much credit but the tackling and turn overs were brilliant. Brandon deservedly gets man of match and took the game to kildare. No doubt tge best team won today, well done mark mchugh and his management, what a turnaround in player belief in a year, roll on leinster.

Replying To M Lyster: "Down had to beat Donegal (1st in National League) then Armagh (6th in NL) to reach the Sam Maguire stage,
Meanwhile Kerry just had to beat Clare (24th in NL) to make it. Until this discrepancy is rectified we'll never have a truly level championship." But Kerry would have qualified anyway as 2nd in the League. The Clare game was irrelevant to the AI SFC, just like yesterdays Derry/Monaghan game was.
Plus if Down had stayed in Div 2. they wouldn't have had to worry about beating Donegal or Armagh.

The ladies are an example of how to ignore population numbers resources etc and just get on with it, think they had a year where they didn't field but they've bounced back and gave great days out to the supporters.
If there was a connacht intermediate cup for mens game we could surely win a few but would have some questioning it's value and others crying about how to include NY in it as well as the senior one, you can't win

Aside from the tremendous commitment and tackling shown today which were critical to a momentous victory, the Westmeath support in Tullamore was phenomenal, the crowd rallied the team and vice versa at different stages and the scenes on the pitch for almost an hour after full time were amazing. Youngsters getting jerseys, footballs, flags signed, huge pride and joy felt by everyone. The contrast between preparing for a Leinster final in Croke Park with 40,000 + in attendance and then two more guaranteed championship matches versus playing Leitrim in the TC was a factor in the players giving everything on the day.

Only worrying thing was our game management , why did we shoot that at the end and give them the ball again. Please rectify that area.
That aside what a performance from everybody to get us here. How many players has Mark used in league and championship? Every player must feel they have a chance of playing and ready to do a job. Best of the bunch for me was Sam, Allen and the full back line. Our fitness, intensity and turnover rate was phenomenal. Such great to see support like that. Let's get everyone to the final now and what a win it could be over the Leisnter kingpins. We got some huge scores at crucial points, Allen's score was such a good one.

Great win today and a serious team performance. The depth in this panel is superb, especially considering we were without Lynam, Loughlin, CMac, Guerin, and only had a half-fit Whittaker.
After listening to The Sunday Game, they were seriously impressed with our work rate and overall intensity
I thought Shane Allen fully deserved MOTM - Brandon Kelly was superb, but Allen's turnovers and defensive work were outstanding all day.
The only thing I'd question is Scahill going for it in the 69th minute - after the Wexford game I'd have thought we'd have learned our lesson, especially with Beirne getting that score. I didn't think we'd have the legs or depth for extra time, but to be fair, it worked out in the end.
I hate going back to it, but I think McHugh has been the best thing to happen to Westmeath in a long time. A lot of those lads were banging on the door when Dessie was manager, but he didn't take many chances and stuck with the more experienced, seasoned players.
Fair play to these lads now they're really proving themselves.

Replying To Viking66: "Maybe Ill put forward a motion to the club that promotion and relegation should be introduced to the Munster Championship? On the grounds that it would be massively beneficial to whoever gets promoted to it to have 4 Championship games, maybe make them all home games, against 4 of the giants of hurling? Imagine the good it would do for Antrim hurling, or Westmeath hurling, or Carlow or Laois or whoever, for young people in those counties to see Fitzgibbon, Hegarty, Kelly or Mcgrath in the flesh, get their hurls signed etc? It would be massive for growing the game nationally!!! Maybe it would get alot of support!" No thanks. Four annihilations at home would do untold damage. Munster hurling is the poster boy of the GAA. Why change what's working
