Meath send out a warning

Although today's defeat of Carlow by Meath ended up being a bit like one of the mismatches most associated with hurling, the Meath forwards sounded out a warning to the rest of the province with some sharp shooting.
Joe Sheridan, Stephen Bray and Cian Ward all showed that they will once again be worth the watching this season although they would be pushed for their places if Meath boss Colm Coyle had a full selection to pick from.
And as well as these three scoring for fun it was a veteran playing in his 16th championship season who once again caught the eye with his sheer intelligence.
Although the game was a breeze for the Royals Graham Geraghty gave us a couple of memorable moments where first time touches showed once again an awareness that would light up any game.
I still think that the suspensions will affect Meath's season but once again no one will enjoy a day out against them.
