Ah here. Costello made a meal of it. Barely a yellow.

Men against boys as I expected. Meath very average team overhyped by wins over Kerry and Dublin who didn't need to win those games. Louth showed the reality in Leinster final.
Jimmy winning this one!

Costello and Morris getting well Marshalled.
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016

Donegal haven't managed to get Thompson on the two pointers yet. Meath tracking him well.

Kerry and Dublin weren't true knockout games so you can explain those results somehow, but this is a damning indictment on Galway

They've done great to get this far but they today they look like the div 2 team that didnt get promoted. Its probably as poor a half as donegal played this year and they are still well ahead

Lmao. He tapped him with about two open fingers. "Dig" ffs.

Meath aware shoot the lights out with two pointers is their road to victory and forcing it way too much. The final one after the hooter was desperate.

Slapped twice in the  face. Surely that's a red???

Monaghan the last day was much worse.    Meath six scores from 16 shots is simply not good enough with a strong wind advantage,  the occasion has got the better of them?

Donegal shrewd to basically let Meath shoot from the 45 degree or greater angle at the 2 point line. Counting on nerves and occasion, plus probability to keep their score down.

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.
