There s a storm blowing down the field.

Final score in Ashbourne....Roscommon 4-12, Meath 0-01.

Would they at least try to keep the ball kicked out against us.. that's a bad beating to ship by anyone, nevermind Meath at home.

Not much to be learnt from a match like that, though it was nice to hear Henry Walsh was in good form.

Kerry whacked Cavan too, had to know what to make of those two results in the context of next weekend.

Rossies could dominate out west for decades at this rate.

[moysider]

Yeah; doesn t look like anybody ll give them any bother.

Did Cavan have a weakened team out today or what? Our u-21s are only ok this year and nowhere near up to speed yet, so assume Cavan were experimenting given that scoreline?
Obviously every other team in this competition is merely going to be cannon fodder for the Ross-aneiri anyway, so it's all irrelevant..

Says the team that drew with us last weekend. Bit late on the WUMing there.

We had maybe 8 championship starters playing today. Meath missing about 11 of their own if reports are correct.

Ross were clearly just toying with us last time out. They have bigger fish to fry than us minnows.

Meath lads couldn't focus on the game distracted by our lovely bus.

Your shadow must have made quite a distraction too Ross!

You know you're playing a super power when their own mode of transport emblazoned in their colours, looms over the field!

Worst defeat for Cavan at this level since the All Ireland final against Galway 4 years ago. The team looked very weak to me but whos to say. I dont think this team will be of the same level as last years (which was our best of recent years in my opinion). Looking at that team today though there were probably 8 or more of the 1st team not playing. Not nice to ship heavy defeats but at the same time who cares if the team go on and do the business in Ulster.

[Rossfan]

Great win for our lads today but Meath were very poor. Still you can only deal with what's put on front of you. We did that admirablyand could have scored as much again if we had to or hadn't thrown on a scatter of subs.
Nice to be going so well but no real titles are won in January so feet on the ground lads
While Ashbourne is a fune venue and a great clubhouse...could ye not have played it in Enfield ?

[INDIANA]

Yeah; doesn t look like anybody ll give them any bother.

They'll certainly dominate the Hastings Cup anyway

[Rossfan]

We might be out of the Cup next week as Cavan will have a stronger team out.
