Why is this on the main forum....... Why would anybody whos not from these two counties have more than a passing interest?

All Dublin games are of a national interest.

We're box office!

The national interest will be a Westmeath win

Westmeath could be hammered. We could also win.

Dublin have being very very good in the league. After the league final, although Dublin won, I felt Tyrone were the better team by a small margin, and this was without Harte and O'Neill. This made me fancy Tyrone yesterday to beat Donegal as I had rated Dublin so highly. Donegal won quite convincingly making Tyrone look average enough. This makes me wander, where Dublin are really at. Sunday will tell a lot. It will show us where both Westmeath and Dublin are at. My concerns from a Westmeath point of view would be Dublin's capacity to get goals. If Dublin get a few goals in past us, then its goodnight. If we can keep the goals out then we have a real chance. Dublin conceded 17 points to a weakened Tyrone in the League Final, so that gives me hope as I feel Westmeath's forward line is better than the Tyrone forward line that played in the league final. It is key for Westmeath to win the midfield battle and get good supply to a sharp forward line. Sharry at centre back is dangerous coming forward, similar to Lacey in that vein but it could be dangerous as dublin counter so quickly.
Looking forward to what I hope will be a competitive game. IF we can keep the goals out I believe we can match the Dubs on point taking.

Exactly right!

That's why the Dubs are always of national interest.

Westmeath are a far better team than the teams that Kerry, Cork and Mayo beat recently.

Rubbish, I expect to be held to a close game on Saturday evening, Dublin to scrape through and people to be doubting our championship credentials will be perfect for me :)

We need to win this game, that's the bottom line, can't imagine a half decent team like Westmeath getting hammered by anyone!

Good man Jimbo, you are playing a stormer on the mind games, talking up the opposition.

We all know you mean it ;-)

Hope its a good game anyway.

This year will be a shoot out between Dublin and Donegal, I expect the Dubs to take Westmeath to pieces, they will want to keep pace with Donegal before the two come face to face

Westmeath by two, repeat of 2004, in memory of páidí
