Div 2 Final: Meath Vs Roscommon

Louth Exile · April 22, 2007, 11:32:39 PM

Roscommon must have improved since last year. Was at their game against Meath in Navan and they were one of the worst county teams I had seen in a long time. all they did was aimlessly run with the ball. Maughan will have done some turn around with them if they can come back and beat Meath in the final.

Maughan was just suggesting clones as a venue. The GAC meet monday or tuesday to decide venue

The vast majority of Meath and Roscommon people would pass through Cavan to get to Clones.

That's not really a problem anymore. Vast tracts of Cavan have been pacified and there is a secure corridor (N3, but known locally as "the big road") that's safe enough to use in daylight hours. It's often booby-trapped with unlit tractors after dark, though. Batteries be's fierce dear, d'y'know.

Aye Cavan would probably suit best. Have a few mates in Cavan town so i could make a weekend out of it. I have heard Mullingar and Longford being mention too though.

Heard some Meath lads laughing when Geraghty came on. They reckoned the Monaghan game was not a big enough event for him to play and were calling him the Taoiseach! Looking forward to it, a chance to avenge that mauling we got in Navan last year.

Well done Meath and Roscommon, I did a treble in Paddy powers for the weekend games, Monaghan, Cavan and Mayo

Is Seamus O'Neill definitely out? Him and the other lad are possibly the biggest midfield pairing I've ever seen. Ward and Crawford are hardly oompa-loompas either mind you. Both forward lines looked lively on saturday so the midfield battle will be hugely important.

Ya he supposed to be out for 6-8 weeks with ankle ligament damage. He looked to be in serious pain when he went down. Huge loss as he does a lot of the donkey work for us around the middle.
