Offaly beat Longford and Meath on the way to a Leinster semi-final this year.
Offaly Senior Football Manager Martin Murphy is satisfied his players finished their Leinster campaign with "pride".
The Faithful County slipped 6 points behind Louth in the second half of their provincial semi-final but managed to force extra time with some excellent scores of their own.
It was the extra-time that signalled the beginning of the end for Murphy's players as Louth took back control of the contest.
When the final whistle was sounded it finished 27 points to 2-15.
The Offaly manager says there was one Louth player in particular that gave his side a headache throughout:
