Replying To Lakecounty94: "Any word on if the returning Fiona o'hara will link up with Westmeath squad this year?" surely he has to prove himself at club level mickcunningham (Westmeath) - Posts: 1727 - 28/11/2023 15:38:26 2514890 Link
Replying To Claretandblue: "Caulry underage strong but yet poor enough at 13 and 15 according to you? Explain?" 17s were ok and were strong last year, 19s strong and strong next year, have produced 2 x bakes, o Donovan, Shorthall, 2 x stuart trainors, 2 x murphys, Cloonan a few more at 17s level what i meant by that statement. thats why i made the point they have a few years to push it as will have maybe one 1 or 2 players coming in the following 6 years.

Replying To Lakecounty94: "Any word on if the returning Fiona o'hara will link up with Westmeath squad this year?" I believe Fionn is in university in Belfast and you'd imagine he'll be playing Sigerson for starters. He'll be in demand from the rugby brigade so no doubt Dessie will be in touch. He does have a lot of catching up to do but a lad of his talent will be well capable. BigSur (Westmeath) - Posts: 1090 - 28/11/2023 16:18:38 2514902 Link
Replying To mickcunningham: "surely he has to prove himself at club level" Be a massive addition if the rugby brigade don't get him. He looked as good as Heslin at underage! Matthew (None) - Posts: 985 - 28/11/2023 17:26:07 2514916 Link
Replying To jamsie: "u15s struggled in Division 3. u13s were Division 4. Minors were division 1. Struggled, but no shame in that. A few clubs who were in div 2, would be better following their lead for u18 next year. 6 teams is too few for div 1." Caulry have plenty of players coming up at under age they had 2 teams at under 15 level last year to give all the players football so no shortage of players coming on great coaching been done out there Undertheroad (Westmeath) - Posts: 16 - 29/11/2023 00:03:41 2514951 Link

Replying To Matthew: "Be a massive addition if the rugby brigade don't get him. He looked as good as Heslin at underage!" well thats way off the mark, Heslin at 14 kicking points off both feet from 40 years, lording the skies, at minor starting for the u21s, O hara was good at underage and midfield is a big problem area at westmeath so he could get a crack at it in the next 18months but as someone said sigerson and club he needs to prove him self.
