O’Rourke heads Meath nominations

Colm O’Rourke is among the nominations put forward for the Meath job.

With a deadline for nominations from the clubs closing yesterday, the former International Rules manager has been backed, as have Seamus McEnaney’s former selectors Graham Geraghty and Liam Harnan as well as Gerry McEntee and Sean Kelly.

The county board executive will officially reveal the names of the nominees next week after which a sub-committee will take the next step of interviewing candidates willing to put forward their name for the position.
