And won there against Laois so a big playing surface doesn't affect them.

Final this weekend
Any thoughts?

Hard one to call really there's so little between them up to now.

Both lost one game, Carlow to Antrim and crucially Westmeath to Carlow. It's been shown plenty of times in these playoff finals that the groups results don't always give a clear indicator in the final.

If I had to choose I would probably go with Carlow who have had success in a final in Croke Park last year winning the Christy Ring.

Very poor stuff from Westmeath today

The goals either side of half time did it for Carlow particularly the first half when Westmeath missed a chance just before it.

It might not have made much difference to the results but giving these two teams only a week before the next game was a load of bollix

Westmeath actually did ok.
Two soft goals killed them.

It's great to see 2 JMD teams playing in the All Ireland series.
It's a real sign of respect.
