Can't see it happening anytime soon but I think it will happen.
Not particularly palatable for Dublin fans and people, but the two teams would be extremely competitive and wouldn't be long before vying for Leinster and Sam.

Hurling might not be ready for that kind of split!

Amalgamate the weaker counties, its the only way to go, if these counties want to see their countymen playing football in Croke Park in August. Even if you do split Dublin, they will still be there in August, only this time two Dublin teams. Do country people really want to see that.

Just have the two Dublins play each other in the first round. Job on.

Where will the Dublin South play? Assume Dublin North will still use Croke Park as their home ground.

I'd also advocate an open draw  8)

Yes.

I would also like to see Antrim joining with Derry as these 2 counties have 1/2 a population who don't have any interest in GAA (that's not counting the ones who prefer soccer/rugby) unlike southern counties.

Can we use Newbridge or are we still waiting on the count from this years bucket collection to see if the solitary jacks can be fixed?
