Surely that's not true? Didn't the gaa identify training and matches as casual contact therefore no need to self isolate

6 Counties still have to wait until 17th July for challenge games!

It's true, that's the problem with it being Amatuer. Those players will probaly miss 2 weeks wages from work

The Inter County season starting in October when the flu season starts. It could be carnage then.

Not strictly true. They isolate until contact tracing and tests are done so could be less than 2 weeks. Training is regarded as close contact though.

Id actually say a good idea would be use squad numbers and each player look after their own jersey for the season

I think the problems with public attendance at these games is shown by the Danish cup final where a modest crowd was admitted, but the game had to be stopped because some of the fans insisted on squeezing in together. Some people are thick and several thick people together is a bad combination.

If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

At some stage it was communicated that you could only tog 24 players for challenge matches, is that still the case?

It will be carnage this is a none runner people are going to be sick and not know whether its a heavy cold, Flu or Covid 19.

Some gobshite wont do what their supposed to do and that could be the star man on the team or the village idiot.

I would put good money on that there will be no All - Ireland Final this year.

I think this will be like trying to stop payments to managers...
Or will be implemented against some little County.
