Gerry Buckley takes an in-depth look at this year's championship.
Midlands 103 commentator Gerry Buckley says there's three likely favourites in this year's Westmeath Senior Football Championship.
The 2023 campaign is set to start this weekend just a week after The Lake County's exit from the All Ireland Series due to their draw with Tyrone.
The Downs are the current holders of the Flanagan Cup after edging out St Loman's by four points in last year's decider.
Buckley reckons the two finalists, plus Coralstown/Kinnegad will start as the fancied sides this year.
Speaking to Liam White, he starts by voicing some frustration about the timing of the return of the club championship:
