Not a boo boo. Blatant GAA hypocrisy and double standards.
A Tipperary newspaper has admitted that if Tipperary somehow through the shock of the century lost a relegation play-off, the Munster Championship would be reformatted to keep them in it.

As a Wexford man, am taking more interest than usual in this year's Joe McDonagh Cup final!

Agree with legendzxix here, though. It's hypocrisy and double standards. And I think his idea is a good one, of the winners of the McDonagh determining which of the provinces has six teams the following year, with the bottom of those six then being relegated.

To be fair people have been saying it since the start. Especially in 2018/19 when Waterford didn't win a game and it made no difference to them.

Plenty about it at the time it came in. And every year Kerry got to the final. Were you living under a rock? Pay attention lad!

Read that too. Like the League restructuring when Cork weren't going to be in the top flight. You don't mess with the big 3.

All sorts of quotes and links displaying in all sorts of funny ways here!

But basically, throw-in is definitely 4.30 p.m., and TV coverage starts at 4.20 p.m.

Kerry's Eric Leen was sidestepping media queries about the potential relegation play-off. Fully aware of the Antrim challenge.

A side issue, but what's the story in Kerry about one of the local newspapers? Something about how they didn't even recognise the hurling captain or one of the other players a few weeks ago, and are now complaining they can't interview any of them?

Yes that's what I was trying to say! Still a technological neanderthal!

None of the players were made available for an interview with the local journalists. One journalist was criticising the management for it. They were further annoyed in hearing that Eric Leen would be available to speak with the national media.
The journalist was giving out about the round trip involved for Leen to be speaking to the national media in Dublin, though the player is actually living and working up there!

Antrim well on top against Kerry. Antrim vs Cork next day out! Cork have to be careful here… Antrim can be an awkward proposition! Wexford vs Kerry. Tipperary safe from relegation!

Commiserations to Kerry. A wonderful game but we were always just a score ahead in that second half. Kerry have made massive improvements in the last few years.
