Calm down. Believe it or not Meath exposed weaknesses in dublin today earlier in the game. They will get beat this year.

As for dominance these things happen in cycles so ease off on the monster talk. Ya didn't hear any complaints from the hurling lads for the kk dominance.

Meath didn't expose anything today - that was singularly the worst Meath team I've ever seen. they were rubbish and should be made walk home. Serious question marks over the decision to get rid of the experienced players after that today.

We were clinical and composed and should have won by more. Bigger fish to fry. But the Leinster Championship is a dead rubber at the moment. laois by far the best team we played.

Why the fūck is the jumbotron in Croker still on and playing to an empty stadium? That thing must cost a bomb in electricity.

Deflection from O'Dowd on an awful performance?

Maybe Mickey Burke bit his own hand in frustration.

O'Dowd last week the very man speaking in tones of no complaints or moaning after Dublin vs Meath games  ::)

Maybe he is deflecting attention from a poor performance and the chance a couple of his players could get banned for the melee near the end. ;)

You mustn't have been paying attention.

In fairness the hurling lads never (and i mean never) say anything bad about their game. Kilkenny unlike Dublin do not have a large population, do not have loads of money and play some games away from home. The Leinster Championship is dead as a competition and has been for some time. That said, the Munster championship has the usual 2 horse race, year in year out. And Connacht has been disappointing, but that will change once this Mayo team outlive this period.

Very disappointed reading the scoreline. Haven't seen the game yet.

It will be interesting to see how other teams get on against Dublin before we start criticising our own lads. Not a time for pointing fingers as I doubt tactics were a problem.

As for Mickey Burke getting bit, well it means feck all to the outcome of the game but if there is evidence and a case to be made then so be it someone needs punishing but it means f**k all really.
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016

Jim Gavin saying it was a very intense game with a straight face. :) :) :) :)
