Replying To 2maroonjerseys: "Play provincial finals then top 4 in both provinces into an open draw of 4 teams. Play the 3 games in each group and the winners of each group into All Ireland final."
Dead rubbers in Rd 3 - it would repeat the Sam Super 8 issue.
Replying To logger: "Come on now lads. Give them the championship the Munster counties want. Keep current format for both Leinster and Munster but instead have 5 qualify out of Munster and 3 from Leinster.
2 primarily quarter finals - 4th place team in Munster plays 3rd place team in Leinster and 5th place team in Munster plays runner up in Leinster. These games have to be fixed for Thurlus... its important that Munster counties get the advantage here.
2 Quarter finals - winners of the primarily quarter finals will play 3rd and 2nd in Munster - Again these games have to be fixed for Thurles.
Semi finals Croke Park - Leinster winner v Quarter final 1 winner Semi finals Croke Park- Munster winner v Quarter final 2 winner
Final Croke Park Winner of Semi final 1 v Winner of Semi final 2 *
*If Cork qualify for the All Ireland final they get home advantage
This should keep the Munster lads happy."
All Munster teams at home in those quarters, playing with the wind for the hour. All that was left was for him to suggest two relegations from the 7-team Leinster and the Joe McDonagh finalists both get promoted.
