Colm O’Rourke told Meath delegates that he sees no reason why the county can’t become “the Kerry of the East,” as he was unveiled before the clubs following his recent appointment.
In a rousing address at Navan O’Mahonys, O’Rourke stated that Meath is “a wonderful county.”
He went on to say that Meath people were proud that others viewed their All-Ireland winning teams of the 1980s and 1990s as “ignorant and physical,” and that he intended to restore those qualities to the current crop.
