Quote from: David McKeown on May 25, 2024, 10:08:39 PMI thought Armagh were spot on in the first half(& throughout tbh, we won in 3rd gear) the game was shite tho. Westmeath were very ordinary - and unoriginal, but who is original these days.Quote from: bennydorano on May 25, 2024, 06:44:17 PM7.6 to Armagh at HT, Westmeath played with a good wind there. Armagh looked in containment mode into the wind. Awful to watch.
I actually thought Armagh were ok first half against a very good Westmeath side playing a refreshing brand of football. The High Press they used defensively really disrupted the Armagh rhythm.
Second half I felt Armagh made the necessary adjustments and fared much better keeping Westmeath scoreless for almost 20 minutes and always looking comfortable with out really having to exert themselves.

Some half decent underage players but from the outside looking in it looks like in both counties they have went for former playing legends and it hasn't worked out at all. Yes it runs a bit deeper than those two men but if Louth can raise their level like that Meath and Kildare should be fit to do something too.. Colm is a legend of the game. But too long out of county seniors. He just hasn't got what it takes. I'd argue that we got to super 8s and division one with less talented players. But we were lethargic and bereft of any ideas. What is letting us down now is manager and coaching. It's over the game is up. We cannot let these players who I believe are capable of bringing Meath to div 1 and all ire quarters drift aimlessly away cb need to act asap. This can't be let run for another year.
