Not that it's too late, but what's changed, apart from Dublin becoming good?

What has changed is obviously the format of the championship, which surely hasn't passed you by. This change in format sees every team playing one game at home, one game away and one game at a neutral venue, besides Dublin who play two at home and one away, and whatever team are unlucky enough to win their provincial championship and end up in Dublin's group who play two away and one at home.

I don't think it's unreasonable to attempt to bake a basic element of fairness in to a new format that is being trialled?

Orchard park

Will the persecuted  McKenna followers accept a lot more money has to be put into Dublin coaching with only a minor hurling and senior football  won in leinster 2018 in what is allegedly an era of total domination.

Highlights of Leinster 2018 are last night's fantastic Kildare display  and Wicklow minors... I haven't seen Wicklow but there were some fantastic footballers on the u20 side last night and played a good hard brand of football.....

Underage results flies in the face of the constant crying about Dublin's population and financial advantage. Young players showing the way - just go out and beat them.

One swallow doesn't make a Summer.
Dublin won 4 in a row u21s in Leinster and 2 of the last 4 U21 All Irelands.
Not exactly down and out.

Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

Kerry won the last 4 All Ireland minor titles... in Croke Park!

A recently-compiled statistic revealed that since 2011 and the evolution of the spring series that saw Dublin move their home league matches to Croke Park, they had played 74pc of all their league and championship games there, 83 out of 112


What other county gets such an advantage?

Sure what's another corporate €.

Why the begrudgery? More money into Gaelic games - surely a good news story.

If it were any other county getting corporate support would you be commenting? I don't think so.

You can ignore the point if you like, most in GAA HQ seem happy to do so, not a surprise Dubs would do likewise.
