Replying To royaldunne: "Dropped it left? As I know the panel is been cut" Wrong thread. Either dropped or left. I know two of the players who were very much regulars in the team since last season decided to opt off. Doesnt bode well. ISupposeSoSheehan (Meath) - Posts: 86 - 12/04/2018 17:27:44 2092645 Link
Replying To Bear10: "Think it will be more like and under 17 competition with the leaving Certificate on also in a few weeks" But amazingly enough Under 16's can't play as it is deemed an adult competition! Royalblufill (Meath) - Posts: 542 - 12/04/2018 17:41:59 2092646 Link
Replying To ISupposeSoSheehan: "Wrong thread. Either dropped or left. I know two of the players who were very much regulars in the team since last season decided to opt off. Doesnt bode well." According to a prominent journalist in the Royal County both players left the panel. Doesnt look too positive going forward RoylerKing (Meath) - Posts: 809 - 12/04/2018 18:42:36 2092658 Link
Replying To Analyst: "U 16's not allowed. Even though last year U 15 could play minor" U 15s could not play minor last year head4dblackspot (Meath) - Posts: 513 - 12/04/2018 19:12:25 2092661 Link
Replying To Analyst: "If it is set aside for club activity then the clubs should have THEIR players for the three weeks. Hardly a big ask" Not just with Meath that problem occurs. All counties are training in April MeathWawa (Meath) - Posts: 61 - 12/04/2018 23:28:51 2092712 Link

Replying To MeathWawa: "Not just with Meath that problem occurs. All counties are training in April" First 8 words in what i said are key. Discussion is not about what other counties are doing. Analyst (Meath) - Posts: 1514 - 12/04/2018 23:46:20 2092719 Link

Replying To Royalblufill: "But amazingly enough Under 16's can't play as it is deemed an adult competition!" Never agreed with lads playing at least 3 years out of age anyway ( unless they really have to due to lack of numbers available ) as they will have plenty of time to play and need to develop physically. Clubs just lose players every year by playing players out of age and leaving older boys on the sideline . I have seen players leave and not play again and worse still their families lose interest in supporting the club anymore . Sometimes I feel sorry for these young lads who are very good at underage level because everybody wants them on their team and eventually these lads can get fed up of looking for their gear bag every night and just not bother anymore or injury burnout can happen .

What about Round 2, few clubs already under pressure after losing round 1, Simonstown V Dunboyne is the stand out in the Senior, Couple of very interesting ones in the Intermediate, and on that, what an performance from Mickey Newman on Saturday night for Kilmainham. longroadback (Meath) - Posts: 332 - 16/04/2018 11:09:45 2093221 Link
Does anybody know if the head of the fixture commitee in the county board is from Duleek?? It got a senior game in every round last year and now again more games this year....its an absolute shambles of a pitch and isn't fit for any adult football let alone senior championship. Everyone deserves better for the championship southmeathgael (Meath) - Posts: 1090 - 17/04/2018 10:50:24 2093468 Link

I agree with you - but in this instance it is about filling in for lads who are 18,19 who are tied into their adult teams. I think a lot of clubs will have to go down the age groups to fill those gaps. Royalblufill (Meath) - Posts: 542 - 17/04/2018 10:52:54 2093471 Link

Yes, Ollie Cudden is the Chairman of the CCC, he is a Duleek man, Jimmy Henry is the Fixtures Secretary he is a Clan a Gael man, both clubs do well out of the fixtures. longroadback (Meath) - Posts: 332 - 17/04/2018 11:35:08 2093477 Link

Why are the fixtures sent out to clubs different to the ones on the Meath Gaa website? Syddan V Meath Hill has been sent out for Saturday night but its down for Sunday on the website, that is really not good enough. longroadback (Meath) - Posts: 332 - 17/04/2018 15:35:55 2093589 Link
