Meath plan for trip south

The Meath will seek to kick-start their Ladies NFL Div 1 campaign when they make the long trip south to take on Cork at Mourneabbey, Co Cork on Sunday, 2.0. The Royal County side were narrowly defeated (0-10 to 2-6) by Dublin in the opening round of their campaign at Castleknock last week. Now they have a chance to make up for that setback against the Rebel County. Geraldine Doherty (pictured), who played against Dublin, is expected to feature again. There was some doubt as to where the Cork game would be played because of the unavailability of pitches. "We're just fortunate to have a game and glad to have a game, pitches are at a premium now," said Meath PRO Ann Dungan.
