Yes and Tones will win it. Losing no one from last years side and all will have more experience under their belt. Lots of underage talent with the only side coming close being Ratoath

Big shocks in the first round of this with NOM beating Ashbourne and Senchelstown beating Cilles. 4 potential winners left for me Skryne, Summerhill, Ratoath and Dunboyne LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 833 - 22/10/2018 22:57:28 2147808 Link 11 |

I think it is very open - Senchelstown and NOM had great wins so can't be discounted! Ratoath have a very young team and I think their win over Tones was a big surprise! Summerhill will be strong and Skryne have some real talent!

You were way off... not as much talent as you thought?

Shaping up to be an interesting run in for the 21 championship. Ratoath better than I thought they would be given they are a young team! Really dominated skryne on Saturday in the second half ASaminthehand (Meath) - Posts: 292 - 29/10/2018 09:10:47 2148557 Link 0 |

The team that beat us with a fortuitous goal in ladt minute will probably win it, i did say they were next best side. Tones were down 2 of their top players for Ratoath match but in fairness Ratoath are a decent side. Plenty of underage talent in Tones, as their is in Ratoath, no doubting that

Big surprise to see Simonstown come through, wouldn't be familiar with any of their players other than Brían Conlon and Ben Hoey, what other good footballers do they have?

Micheal Gavin starter on the under 17 team last year. Good player. Wouldnt know too much about the rest of the players. Wasn't really a surprise to see them beat NOM. Navan never good at this age or the two after decent at now under 18 but Conlon and Hoey miles better than any O'Mahony's player is right now. Think Ratoath will beat Simonstown comfortably enough in the semi unless Conlon dominates the middle and Hoey gets about 1-10

To be fair I didn't know too many of the O'Mahonys players either

certainly have a chance were missing a few players today and pulled through. The only thing that could derail them is fatigue. 5 or 6 lads from the senior will have played important knockout championship games 6 weeks in a row with 3 senior games and 3 21's games. It was clear how much winning the junior and senior had an impact on Dunboyne today though. 5 mins left and they concede a sloppy goal to go behind for the first time yet they come back and get 2 points and dig it out. That is the type of game Dunboyne would have lost in years past

Good win for us yesterday couldn't make it but heard the lads dug out the result. Good to see dunbonye teams doing that on a regular basis this year because we've certainly not been known for that in recent years . What are senchelstown like at u21 level? Would they have been expected to beat Colmcilles in the last round? Aloblack (Meath) - Posts: 265 - 05/11/2018 12:50:58 2149638 Link 2 |

No it was a huge upset for them to beat Colmcilles. They had a good minor team and got to the semi-final I think. Have some good players in Cathal Finnegan and Dylan Keating but Dunboyne would be favourites. Ratoath also big favourites in the other semi final

Not sure why Ratoath are big favourites! Their team is more or less last year's minor team bar McGowan in midfield! Simonstown have a few lads with senior championship medals and county experience Agree dunboyne are massive favourites in the other. I think dunboyne look best placed to win it out!!!

Ratoath will win this competition at their ease. Barney123 (Meath) - Posts: 676 - 05/11/2018 22:26:08 2149748 Link 12 |

It is last year's minor team which won the minor. This Simonstown team hasn't even won anything of not. Any by lads with senior experience you mean Conlon and Hoey. Ratoath will beat Simonstown handy
