Meath are playing Wicklow on may 27th same day as RTE are stupidly showing Tipp vs Kerry.There is a fair chance of an upset in the Meath Wicklow match and I would expect it to be a close game.Tipp vs Kerry like the last time they were on TV will be like a challenge match.Its incredibly lazy on RTE's behalf if they are showing it purely because its on in the same ground as the hurling match later.Its disappointing to see that 2 really interesting games in Leinster Meath Wicklow and Longford Laois are not going to be shown live whil they will show all of Dublins matches (even though they will win their opening match easily)

Upset, nah Wicklow will win easily lol. Agree with you about TV3s Dublin policy, pathetic at this stage

ah now Badger, its hardly pathetic. the team have the largest fan base in the GAA. Its hardly surprising a TV station will look to show their games ahead of other games.

You can understand it froma commercial point of view and TV3 being a commercial station you cant blame them but I think all the TV companies should be encouraged by the GAA to try and show matches that will more than likely be entertaining/competitive rather than just picking the county with the biggest population base.Dublin are constantly on TV and do we really need to see them dish out an early season hidng when they could show a more competitive game
