Not surprising.
John the Baptist Evans says Ros don't have the panel for Division 1 Syf so a loss tomorrow would bring a bit of perspective and do ye no harm hype wise.

The only ones talking about Roscmmon in D1 are Galway and Mayo supporters.

go away out of that, Syf

"You know things are going reasonably well for Roscommon when John Evans's main concern seems to be to dampen down the hype. He was out again this week reiterating his conviction that the Rossies don't have the pool of players to survive in Division One should their fine early-season form carry them to promotion. They could be vulnerable here, with the excellent Enda Smith, Donie Smith and Conor Daly all sure to be feeling the effects of Sigerson exertions. Meath righted the ship somewhat against Kildare and have Damien Carroll back in harness.
Verdict: Meath"

What club in Down is Donal O'Hare from ?
Any relation to Tom ?

Westside

Yeah Killian Clarke was poor and Gearoid too. Flanagan was probably our best player and his going off cost us dearly. The defending for the goal was shocking. It should have been a dog fight at 8 each and us down to 14.. They should never have had a man unmarked at the edge of the small square. Hard to see us getting anything off Kildare next weekend, the dogfight isn't far away.

The relegation picture could become very clear very early, if results go against Laois and Kildare today.

If both of them lose (and Meath beat Roscommon) the next lowest ranked teams would be Cavan and Roscommon on 3 points.

Provincial loyalty will be put to one side and they will surely be hoping that Roscommon beat Meath so that they are other potential relegation candidates down there with them.

I suspect there isn't much "provincial loyalty" between Meath and Kildare.
Anyway cmon Ros and let the rest look after themselves.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

There isn't much between the 8 teams this year. Very little consistency anywhere. Losing 3 would not be the end of the world. It will all come down to the last day.

Ros v Meath and Galway v Laois postponed

Syferus

The two Connacht teams the only undefeated teams after the first three weekends ;D

On the other hand we have found something that has stopped the all-conquering Rossies of '15 - the weather.

Shrewdness

Maybe we didn't want to risk the bus in the snow, although i'm sure it can be fitted with a snow plough

I thought it was already established nothing could stop the magic bus  :o

Syferus

At least we knocked a night's accommodation at the Hudson Bay out of Meath GAA.

Sun shining brightly in the hyde, what a pity the snow spoiled what would have been a good day for a game,
the rematch will be a different kettle of fish as it will more than likely be fixed for the sat or sun after the last round of league matches and could well be a promotion or relegation dogfight or both, both teams will also be getting into championship mode with more than likely better playing conditions.
