Can we assume firstly that if the game goes pro then the county format is gone?

I don't think anyone arguing for professionalism is saying there will be 32 pro teams. They are saying there will be about 10.

I wrote about one possible format and argued for professional here if anyone wants to read https://wp.me/p3MsvZ-14

We'd still be in a low population entity.
I want Ros and Kerry to form one team -sure haven't we 38 or 39 AIs between us.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

Well it's already happened to a large extent with rugby in this country in the 90s  but suit yourself

They have no forwards that'd get a start anyways.

Everything that makes the gaa great is lost with your ideas. I have no interest whatsoever in watching some sort of regional team. I have a very strong allegiance to my club and county and I am happy to watch them regularly. Dublin would retain their support but none of the other regions would have a support base.

Rugby is a minority sport in Ireland and had to create the Province/Club system.

Rugby historically had/has a natural allegiance to the Provinces.

Rugby has a international element, which its 4 clubs Piggyback on!

You should tell that to all the Liverpool & Man U supporters in Ireland.
