Are many of this team also eligible for the u17 tournament this year? I know Kirwan is.

Good win against a fancied Laois side. Draw for the next round to be made on Wednesday with offaly louth and dublin left. I dont know much about gay campbell but i do know he is a passionate and proud kildare man and i think the lads showed similar traits in fighting back from 7 points down. Well done lads

Question for those closer to the scene: is Darragh Ryan a brother of Shea by any chance. Similar style / gait etc so I'm assuming he might be?

Wexford not Offaly make up the 4 in the semis Bigball. Wex beat Carlow by a point yesterday. Offaly lost to Louth.

Lads. Can anyone tell me when we last lost to meath at minor or u21?

All-Star Posts : 1723 Join date : 2010-07-31

They beat us in 2007 in 21s in Navan, not sure if any more recent at minor, I can't remember off the top of my head.

Cheers. I know they havnt beaten us at minor in a long time, maybe 2008

2006 with the minors but we haven't played them that often at that level

Last time we played them in Croke park so possibly a home game in Newbridge if there is a home/away agreement in place at minor level?

Subject: Re: Kildare minors Wed May 24, 2017 7:22 am

Last time we played them outside of Croke Park was in the 2013 Semi Final in Parnell Park so we should be due a home game.

Better off getting them before Croke Park and the advantages that they get there. Hopefully we get a home game and if we played them in Parnell Park last time out then we are due one
However this is the GAA and when it comes to Dublin all bets are off.

There is a home and away agreement I'm fairly sure.. Think we're at home.

Intercounty Posts : 323 Join date : 2017-01-11

Winnable for sure if we play to our potential.

Agree with Rex. While Louth seem to be good, you would expect whoever wins this game will win Leinster. Lose in a Leinster final, you get a second chance but that will almost certainly be against another loaded Kerry team in the quarter final. Looking at the score Dublin put up the last day against Longford, the defence would want to seriously tighten up.

Having said that Shergar, Meath had Dublin beaten before collapsing in 2nd half..........
