I don't think Dermot Earley will start, his role is more of an impact sub now. Darryl Flynn to come in for Doyle maybe and Callaghan if hes fit but doubt he'll be risked. Can't see Bolton playing midfield due to his size so he'll switch with Doyle? Don't know much about this new Doyle lad so just a guess. That's why maybe Flynn will come in. Is Hugh Lynch injured? hes a loss if he is. He's probably one of a few out and out Kildare midfielders. If thats the team that plays I'd be hopeful of winning a bit of possession around midfield as Bolton and Kelly will be smaller than the likes of Meade, Gillespie, Byrne and Biggy. Still though, It seems likely that O'Neill or one of the 2 Doyle's will be at MF proevo (Meath) - Posts: 296 - 27/06/2012 15:12:04 1203599 Link 0 |
Not a pups chance of Earley starting in midfield...he may get 15/20 mins and that would probably depend on how the game is panning out and what is required of him. Theses days McGeeney usually uses him up in the forward line as opposed to midfield for height advantage and ball winning ability. In saying that if he was given a job to do in midfield i'd say he'd take your hand off....just don't think management are looking at that option. Hugh Lynch is still working his way back. Has played a few club games and by all accounts is still a little off the pace required. That leaves us with Flynn who is hopefully by now returning to full fitness. Hope we get a full 70 from him on Sunday as he's a vital cog in the wheel. Its anyones guess as to who would partner Flynn (pending fitness) in the middle??

The team is the same 15 that started the last day. Forget about the order in their named. You can guarantee if that's the 15 that starts they will be in the same positions as they were against Offaly. doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 27/06/2012 15:54:33 1203645 Link 0 |

Good accurate assessment doublehop. Kildare30 (Kildare) - Posts: 603 - 27/06/2012 16:04:59 1203656 Link 0 |
Bolton is obviously expected to mark G Reilly so I'm guessing thats why he's named midfield. Kildare wont make the same mistake as Wicklow by putting a midfielder on him. ClassApart (Meath) - Posts: 1200 - 27/06/2012 17:01:35 1203725 Link 0 |

Now kelf no need to get uppity just cause you deserted your home county (offaly) in there hour of need, for the more competitive kildare. Bit of bad form in my view. But if that's what your like nothing offaly can do about it. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 27/06/2012 20:02:41 1203864 Link 0 |

I think there's a big difference between saying there's pressure in Kildare and saying it's now or never. As far Andriu's career goes he's probably self-aware enough to recognise there are other players likely to take his spot that may be the case but apart from Doyle this Kildare team is young enough, have a good underage pedigree and should be there or thereabouts for a few years yet. doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 27/06/2012 21:03:59 1203923 Link 0 |

Either way MacLochlann is married with a young family and that's clearly what he's talking about in the clip, how many years he's going to give it himself. He's not talking about Kildare's chances of sustaining a challenge at the top or the pressure the team is or isn't under to deliver. Kildare are under more pressure than Meath, fair enough I'll accept that but that will always comes with expectancy and good form. The fact that a lot of Meath's support have written off this teams chances isn't a preferable scenario to me. doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 27/06/2012 21:38:41 1203956 Link 0 |
jesus I hope this match doesn't end in a draw. Imagine having four in row with you lot bating each on this thread, you'll break the Internet. And to add some spice it looks like SJ will start or get on at some stage, small article in the Indo regrading him reverting to his second love of the small ball. bluedubstar (Dublin) - Posts: 835 - 28/06/2012 08:58:44 1204003 Link 0 |
Just think this game is make or break for kildare. They least they would be looking for is a leinster final spot and maybe a upset against the dubs. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 28/06/2012 09:25:28 1204012 Link 0 |
