Munster counties ranked as following after the Allianz league: 1. Kerry 2. Cork 3. Clare 4. Limerick 5. Tipperary 6. Waterford The footballers of Clare, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford have demanded a lopsided Munster draw so that they can have easy access to a Munster final. Clare have made three Munster finals with threatening to win. Clare have made the All Ireland championship three years in a row. They are yet to win a game!!! How long more a the GAA going to facilitate this lopsided draw policy? There were three proper provincial finals this year. Cork v Kerry was arguably one of the best provincial clashes this year. Should have been the proper Munster final. Clare should be in the Tailteann Cup. Limerick won their group and are having a good summer. Sligo beating London and New York to make a Connacht final was also ridiculous. Mayo, Galway and Roscommon had finished top 3 in Division 1!!! Lopsided provincial finals are of no benefit to anyone.

You really yearn for the days when the Munster football championship was set up for Kerry - next you'll be pushing for direct entry for Kerry to the final again.
At different times over the past 20 years Clare, Tipp and Limerick have been better than Cork and beaten them multiple times.
You want to go back in time because Cork gave Kerry a game this year. They haven't exactly proved to be world beaters outside that 1 game

Seeded draws are elitist. Sure why don't you put your other foot on the weaker counties heads?

'Ranked'. Using that criteria they should just seed the All Ireland based on the league, where teams are at different levels because of players available and resources including available pitches in bad weather. Then pick the two top seeds to play in the final and forget about a championship. Who would 'benefit' if that was the case? Seeding is a joke because it makes the stronger counties stronger and the so- called weaker counties weaker. How many more chances do the stronger counties need to be playing a higher standard of football in a cut-down All Ireland Championship while so-called weaker counties play a poorer standard of football in a Small Ireland Championship?
