A great grafter on the field and off it I can only imagine. Full of battling spirit as personified playing the day his father was buried. You'd have to be a stone not to be moved that day.

He'll be missed in Kildare and by all GAA fans.

I'm awful surprised that Jerrah Jones didn't make a move on this. He got the darndest football station right there in Dallas, home o dem cowboys. Let me tell ya he need fillin that thing to pay fer all dat money he gone spend on it. He got the biggest tellervisons sets hanging from the gad dang roof in there. You can even see tony romos tears even up in the nose bleeds.

It was odd listening to a manager basically saying, “I knew what was wrong and I knew how to fix it, but  I didn’t want to do it.”

Or “I would do anything to win but I wont do that.”

Wicklow 2/1

Draw 7/1

Longford 8/15


Actually thought Longford would be a bit stronger favourites for this.

Galway are putting it on a plate for them. The backs are like deer in the headlights at time and nothing is happening up front.

Unfortunately UKIP (or in truth just Nigel Farage) seem to be one of the few willing to speak up in the European Parliament and is quite direct in his approach which gains a lot of traction with disgruntled voters.

As for his racist 'credentials' I really doubt he is. His party seems to be a mix em gather em of genuinely decent nationally thinking políticians and activists along with a few BNP refugees.

Yeah, I don't know why people get so upset to the point of writing in to the Sunday game. They like to drum up a bit of controversy and Spillane and Brolly know the soft spots to push like "puke football".

I'm also certain they only keep Marty Morrissey on board to wind me up.

If we could also now keep Spillane behind closed doors for the summer it would be great altogether.

Seems to be a bit pre-mature to be cutting him from the panel.

Great player that was certainly admired in Meath footballing circles. 07 instantly comes to mind when his name comes up.

Great day even for the neutrals.

Meath

Leinster: semi final (or final at a push).

Back door: unlikely to reach 1/4 final.
