Meaney says Laois enjoying proving the critics wrong

Laois captain Kevin Meaney says the county’s All-Ireland quarter-final qualification is an answer to their critics.

With four wins on the trot, Justin McNulty’s side go into Saturday’s game against Dublin brimming with confidence. It’s their first appearance in the last eight in six years and Meaney took pleasure in proving their detractors wrong.

“2006 is the last time, we had a big win against Tyrone that year,” he said.
