NFL Division 2 2015

[Rossfan]

Here here. We have to play the best to reach long term goal of summit. Madness from posters to suggest we will learn more by staying in div2. That is bs. We should grasp this and kick on which im confident we will.

Depends. Ros have a lot of potential but they need to do the iterations. It takes time to build a sustainable winning formula.
Supporters need to be patient. Maybe d2 would be better for the moment ?

If ye promise to stay up we would consider staying down - if we could rely on ye

Best of luck to both Roscommon and Galway at the weekend, espevially now Marty Duffy's reffing.

[Shrewdness]

I thought someone said it was Michael Duffy?.. How can they do this to us? Ah well, the dream of promotion was nice while it lasted. Farr, are you sure it's Marty Duffy

You could be right, either way there isn't much between them.

Meath (FL Division 2 v Down)

Paddy O'Rourke;

Donnacha Tobin, Conor McGill, Donal Keogan;
Mickey Burke, Kevin Reilly, Brian Power;

Bryan Menton, Adam Flanagan;

Graham Reilly, Padraic Harnan, James McEntee;
Eamon Wallace, Michael Newman, Mark O'Sullivan.

I fully expect us to win now there is some St. Vincent's/Curragha stock on the field.

I really hope there is a strong finish to the league although that line up doesn't suggest a massive shift in approach. Same midfield pairing as before which haven't done the best the last two times out.

[Itchy]

Cavan to beat Westmeath.
Galway to beat Roscommon
Kildare to beat Laois
Meath to beat Down

The group will be all over the place with these results.

Juice, I can't remember when we last had a player on the senior team. I can't remember anyone playing championship since Terry Kearns, but I must have  forgotten someone.

'We' as in who?

[Hardy]

Our club. Yours and mine.

To be fair James is from the 'ha side of things.  But still even they only get about 1 a decade on the senior panel

[Rossfan]

A lot of things gone into melting pots tonight.
Down 8
Ros Meath Cavan 7
Laois 5
Kildare Galway Westmeath 4.
Us and the herrings play tomorrow.

[Syferus]

If we beat Galway it's only the top four currently that will be in the promotion shake-up, the division will be properly split in two halves. If we lose it will still be an absolute mess head into the final day.

[twohands!!!]

Down, Roscommon, Cavan and Meath all safe from relegation now.

Westmeath, Kildare and Galway all on 4 points but Galway do have the game tomorrow.

In terms of scoring difference Westmeath's is -17, Kildare's -10, Galway's -4 and Laois who have 5 points are on +3.

If Galway do get beaten tomorrow , the last thing they want is to lose by a lot as that scoring difference could be key.

Final round of games are
Westmeath v Roscommon
Down v Laois
Galway v Kildare
Meath v Cavan

[Syferus]

What exactly are the rules for tie-breakers? If two teams are on equal points will head-to-head decide who's ahead of who?

[Rossfan]

Two teams - head to head
More than two - score diff
