Yes, Dublin will knock everyone else out.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Does anyone think club underage fball/hurling will be allowed alongside the intercounty which is going first in may/june?

Hopefully,it's much more important to our association in my eyes

I think the notion of a 'split season' is being taken too literally by some. My understanding is that adult club (and I would assume underage) activity is still going to take place in the form of leagues etc... it will be later league games, playoffs and Championships etc.. that are played during the club only section of the season.

That is my understanding of it also. Club leagues etc will take place from March/April onwards but without county players. All so called 'important' league fixtures (top 4, play offs etc) will take place alongside championship from August onwards. Don't forget that provincial and AI club series has to be played also before the year end.
Actually not that much time if you are a dual county that plays round robin championship - it will be hectic from August onwards.

Really? I hope not. Don't want to go back to the christmas/new year start (know of adult teams starting before Christmas) and still playing football into likely September or October

Would prefer a clean split, with maybe a bit of overlap in July if needs be

Outdoor sport in the north without spectators will be open on the first lifting of restrictions so the GAA really need to clear that up, if people are allowed to play soccer and rugby but not GAA it'll be a huge own goal for the GAA

The southern counties didn't wait on their northern colleagues in 2020. They hammered on ahead and started challenge games 2/3 weeks before the north got the go ahead. Despite John Horan big talk on TSG that everyone starts together it didn't happen.

Exactly, all island approach when it suits them, when outdoor sport is given the go ahead there is no justifiable reason for kids not to be back at it. I don't think anyone in the south with the GAA at heart would complain about games in the north back going
