Think we got a tough enough draw in Kildare. They're usually decent at this level.
Eddie Kinsella in charge again. Played Tipperary during the week and had a very big win. 12 points or so I heard. Were due to play Sligo today. Didn't hear anything about that one.

Sorry, no, only heard it was a draw, that's all.
Beat Leitrim in a challenge game yesterday.
Playing Kildare Saturday at 2pm in COE in the Development league .
Laois 2:10 Kildare 0:16 in u20 according to Kildare GAA twitter today.
Didn't see the game but from the looks of the team sheet, there's plenty of talent in the forwards. The likes of Rioghan Murphy, Josh O'Brien, Brian Whelan and Paddy Hosey know where the goals are. I'd worry a bit about the backs but hopefully they're up to the task. I'd imagine that's a decent enough result as Kildare are usually strong at underage level.
Good win for Laois away to Meath. Anyone at it?
Wasn't at it just two injury time points won it us . 1-6 to 0-8. Good win indeed
I wasnt at it, my brother was at it, he said "Didn't get a team sheet but the number 5 was excellent! Quite a small team though"

No 5 for Laois? That was Sean Greene of Emo, I think. He's not a small man by any means. He's a good one though.
Bit unlucky last night and definitely I'd think unlucky to draw Kildare in the first round.
Hard to see potential future senior footballers in the team to be honest but football is funny like that. Don't think Dylan Kavanagh would have been predicted to be a senior player out of his underage group so who knows? Maybe Sean Greene who I think is a good prospect.
Kildare wound up in the All-Ireland final afterwards. it might reflect a bit better on the performance of our lads who certainly seem to have got the worst possible draw in a knockout competition.
Sean O'Shea from Killeen and Tom Byrne from Dublin who was with Billy Oloughlin back in 2018 with Laois are taking over the U20 with Paul Cahillane as coach / selector .

Byrne has been there for Eddie Kinsella's three years in charge too. Cahillane is a new face - hope it goes well for him and the rest of the management.
