The first thing good coaching does is establish the right mindset.
Ok. So tell me what mindset Andy McEntee and Colm O'Rourke have given our players? Are they telling them they can't win? Are they telling them it doesn't matter if we lose? Of course not. Don't be thick.
As I said these lad have been winners coming up through the minor ranks. Do you think Keoghan is still playing over a 100 games for the county for a bit of craic?
I bet the stuff the Meath lads are hearing in training in terms of mindset etc is no different than any other county. Why would it be any different?
And saying there's no pressure is nonsense. There's pressure on every ball and pass in that game because possession is key.
If you know any thing about it it's because the people in charge of Meath football don't know what they're doing. They put good things in place and then let it fall apart.
Dublin have a full time S&C professional overseeing that from U14 right to senior who was working with Leinster rugby previously. We've had 2 people in to do a similar job who stuck around for about 2 years each and then quit.
It's not the players mindsets, it's not Colm O'Rourke, it's the mindset perhaps of the county board and their small mindedness.

Tactically we did nothing wrong. There was a lot of positives but there seems to be a gap in terms of strength and conditioning.
Your players kept making unforced errors, continually hand-passing and kicking the ball to Dublin players when under zero pressure, absolutely nothing to do with S&C.
It was clear they did not believe they could beat Dublin. Until that mindset changes they [and the other leinster teams] will stay in the same place.
Disagree. Our players were running out of steam by the end they looked like they could play for another 20 minutes.
Mistakes were made as we got tired. Unless you're a mind reader you can't claim to know the mindset of players. I'm sick of bluffers spouting this shite like they were in the dressing room and all week at training.
It's not mindset. It's coaching. And we've been doing it wrong for about 10 years. These lads have beaten Dublin at Minor and U20's and have Siegerson medals.
Once we get to senior there's a drop off and our promising players development plateaus. It's 100% coaching and S&C.

This type of justification is a bit like saying that it is ok to bomb a hospital because there are terrorists in the area.Quote from: johnnycool on April 03, 2024, 11:21:41 AMAlso,
over 30% of those killed by Hamas that day were members of the IDF, how many Israelis killed by the IDF that very same day is still very much up for debate.
I'm not saying Hamas didn't kill civilians that day but we now know the raping and beheaded babies were all IDF lies and propaganda.
The beheaded babies was propaganda, but I think it is difficult to claim that nobody was sexually assaulted.QuoteHamas for some reason are being held to a much higher moral authority than the IDF who have killed civilians at will for years, yet nothing is done about it.
No, they are not. Hamas are evil, the question has been whether the Israelis are much the same.

For the absolute life of me, I'll never understand why anyone would want to play in front of 5-10k people in Croke Park. The atmosphere is shit at these games. Absolute shit.

This executive seems to have become a dictatorship and serious changes need made.
Also. 80k on a holiday? That's complete and utter madness.
County senior holiday?
So, what this squad has done for the county the last 2 years, 2 Ulster's, 2 x semi final appearances. The sacrifices made, never mind the revenue brought in, you'd begrudge them a team holiday? Complete and utter madness is right
I'd agree with that, probably the equivalent of about £1,500 per man. Plus sponsors will be covering the majority of the costs i'd imagine?

He was clearly in the square. Thought it strange that no one questioned it
He definitely wasn't!

Looks pretty clear that he's outside the square when the ball leaves the other player's hands.
It wasn't a set play, so he's allowed to enter the square before the ball does.

Today the Attorney general spoke at the ICJ about Israeli settlers. Mission accomplished.If that was the goal of oct 7, then it was a perverse masochistic act where Hamas leadership knowing their militia could in no way protect the Palestinian civilians, deliberately provoked the reaction of Israel and expected the mass slaughter of the innocents but were at peace with that plan because it would show the true face of Israel to the world?
That would point to Hamas leadership cynically and sadistically not giving a damn about the slaughter of the innocents but look to the propaganda value of such
Maybe that played a part, who knows with Hamas.
I would also look to who also benefits from this imposed conflict, namely the barely concealed hidden hands of Iran, Syria and Russia.
