Vicky Wall is the new Tommy Dowd. Very impressive.
Meath played like champions. Super organised and took their chances.

Thanks.

O'Sullivan impressed with her shooting and making space for herself. VW would be a big loss if she doesn't return from AFLW or gets injured over there which seems to be the case quite often.
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016

My 13 year old daughter asked me why are they allowed to pick it straight off the ground and the boys aren't? I couldn't really answer her without it sounding sexist. Is there any other reason other than to make it easier?

because its a crap sport designed to be easily transferred and translated into big playing numbers quickly

I swore there was a girl in the junior game pulled for picking it off the ground.

You can't pick it off the ground if any part of your body, other than feet, are touching the ground.

According to Cora, Vicky won't be back for Meath in championship. It will coincide with AFLW next year. There'll be at least 20 Irish in it next year and could get close to 30.

I'm the average joe who doesn't know the rules and just shouts at refs for getting it wrong ;D (I watch it on tv the odd time but haven't been to a game in a long while...)
