Replying To BigSur: "We've been here every year. Draft league fixtures get issued to county boards and most will share publicly with the caveat that they are draft only. Unfortunately Westmeath do not share until set in stone which is a pity but par for the course." Checked all over for it, a lot of other counties have published theirs. Only one that is set is we've Laois in Cusack (Sun 21st march) which would be round 7, last game. Thankfully not in O'Moore Park on a Saturday night that place has been a graveyard for us against multiple different teams. Lakeman93 (Westmeath) - Posts: 34 - 12/11/2026 15:58:26 2700215 Link
Replying To Bruno@1: "Without doubt Jason Daly has been the best goalkeeper for Westmeath for a long time now but another way of looking at things in the Meath game was McCormack made a huge save from Cian McBride -saved a certain goal at a time when Meath were totally on top.The old saying "goals wins games"might have applied here-would Westmeath have come back.?McCormacks double leg break caused a long delay which stopped Meath's momemtum ." No, Conor McCormack is not a goalkeeper. It was a terrible injury for him, I hope he makes a full recovery and we see him back on the pitch soon, but just not in goal for Westmeath. iarmhiabu (Westmeath) - Posts: 442 - 12/11/2026 16:43:31 2700217 Link
How will our three teams do this weekend in the Leicester? I would wonder if some of them get through this weekend will they be going on a holiday with the county? Mick1234 (Westmeath) - Posts: 64 - 13/11/2026 15:44:48 2700291 Link
Replying To Mick1234: "How will our three teams do this weekend in the Leicester? I would wonder if some of them get through this weekend will they be going on a holiday with the county?" I think Milltown and The Downs will win, can't see Joseph's beating the Meath champs. BadgerDog (Westmeath) - Posts: 177 - 13/11/2026 16:45:17 2700297 Link
Replying To Mick1234: "How will our three teams do this weekend in the Leicester? I would wonder if some of them get through this weekend will they be going on a holiday with the county?" Junior: St Joseph's are away to Curraha and I expect the Meath champions to prevail. Intermediate champions Milltown should record a comfortable win over Ballinagar in Tullamore. The Downs host Wexford champs Kilanerin on Sunday who had a surprise win over Louth's Newtown Blues. With plenty of county players including all the Hughes's this will be a big test I think for The Downs. If they put Lynam and Drumm in their best positions and OSullivan and Moran are fit to start then they should have enough. Best of luck to all.

They will not if they win that's for sure. I'd expect Joseph's and the downs to win Bluelake (Westmeath) - Posts: 394 - 13/11/2026 18:56:14 2700306 Link

The Meath Junior champions are very strong I believe. They were senior 3 years ago and have inter county players Jack_Sparrow (Westmeath) - Posts: 1101 - 14/11/2026 13:56:36 2700338 Link
Replying To Jack_Sparrow: "The Meath Junior champions are very strong I believe. They were senior 3 years ago and have inter county players" Spot on and proven correct. Joseph's a young side. Curraha too strong today and will take stopping. Greengrass1 (Westmeath) - Posts: 116 - 14/11/2026 23:04:09 2700402 Link
Replying To BadgerDog: "I think Milltown and The Downs will win, can't see Joseph's beating the Meath champs." Milltown always had Ballinagar at arms length, couple of late two point frees from Ballinagar flattered the scoreline really. Biggest concern Milltown will have is Duncan going off injured. It was hard to tell but it looked like maybe he twisted the knee. He was in a lot of pain and 2 weeks will be a quick turnaround, hopefully he's ok. St Joseph's were well beaten, Curraha should've won by more, missed 2 or 3 very easy goals in the first half and Joseph's got 2 lucky goals. Curraha are outright favourites though and are backboned by several Meath footballers and hurlers. Not quite sure how they are junior really. Hopefully The Downs win tomorrow and we have 2 Westmeath teams out in 2 weeks time! BadgerDog (Westmeath) - Posts: 177 - 14/11/2026 23:23:31 2700403 Link
Lot of football to play yet but if the Westmeath and Kildare champions get through the semi finals it would be Milltown v Milltown Jack_Sparrow (Westmeath) - Posts: 1101 - 15/11/2026 12:33:41 2700421 Link
