Meath 2027 - 2 Like(s)
Replying To brian: "No disrespect to you Redser but Morris ain't a top fifteen forward in this country .. never mind 5. He's never put 2-3 games back to back in a Meath jersey which top class forwards do. Go back and look at his scoring last season during the championship.. think it was 8 points across 4 games. Kinsella had more than him in 2 games.
The lad had a terrible championship and Robbie should be looking at fresh options. There's a cohort of lads Andy McEntee brought in in 2020 and for the most part they've never developed beyond wildly inconsistent players. To win all Ireland titles you need 6 forwards consistently scoring 3-5 points a game and a bench adding 4-8 points. That cohort from 2020 are on borrowed time with lads like Murphy, commons, mcivor and Gallagher coming through.
Look at Mayo, Beirne and McDonald, 19 and no fear on the big stage. Too many times I've seen those lads from 2020 fail to deliver and maybe it's time others got their chance. As Moran said earlier in the year he saw them as Croke park players and they took their lumps early in the league, but when it mattered they were ready." 'To win all Ireland titles you need 6 fowards consistently scoring 3-5 points a game' is simply just untrue. What 6 fowards did Mayo have scoring 3-5 points a game. There centre foward Paul Towey barely scored for them, Diarmuid O'Connor didn't score in the all Ireland final, Conor Loftus who started against Meath barely scored.
Jordan Morris has been the most improved player for Meath in the Robbie Brennan era. If he wasn't playing against Cavan or Louth at the start of the league we wouldn't have won either game and he was brilliant against Kildare. He is also one of our main sources of assists. He was carrying an injury throughout the championship which was fairly well known. Talk of looking at fresh options instead of Morris is laughable.
