LOUTH forward JP Rooney insisted that last night’s decision not to replay the Leinster senior football final is the right one.

Replay would be a mistake, insists Louth’s Rooney

Rooney stated that he was “delighted” that Meath have not offered the Wee County a rematch following last Sunday’s controversial ending to the provincial showpiece at Croke Park.

Rooney said: “I’m delighted there’s no replay. It would have been an anti-climax. What’s done is done and we will try forget it now. It will be hard to get it out of our heads but we were training this evening and there was a big group there again. We’ll look forward to the next game and life goes on. When you see what happened in Donegal over the weekend, it puts everything into perspective.
