not rubbish tis fact i saw it myself - i was a bit amazed if truth be told the reaction of tipp fans and players , in 2014 when cork beat us the cork fans invaded the pitch -in both cases youd think they were a county after making a breakthrough - keep the provincials but as part of a super 10 like structure"
Keep munster or not, i hope you do agree that things have to change with the championship structure

yeah they do have to change but i like to keep the provinces as part of it

how about scrapping the league

2 groups of 6 , No 1 seeds are all ireland finalists no 2 seeds are semi finalists. ! and 2 seeds kept apart - otherwise open Draw with max 3 munster teams in one pool .

Group winners go to semis. Group runner ups to to quarter finals along with provincial champions. If provincial champ has already qualified, A 3rd place team gets the spot.

Bottom team in each group play off - loser relegated to christy ring, play off winner plays ring cup runner up for promotion/relegation.

MAtches played fortnightly with club championship played in between,

is it any good?
