Would you be in favour of a second tier?

[Hawkeye9212]

The 2 relegated teams from D2 will already be in Tier 2 so it will be 6th in D2?

The team who finishes bottom in Division 2 will still be in Tier 1 unless a Division 3 or 4 team reaches their provincial final.

[Rossfan]

The 2 sides promoted from D3 will be considered D2 then and will be Tier 1.

[Rossfan]

How many extra training sessions - will players even commit to the new competition? I IMAGINE IF THERE WAS ANY EVIDENCE THEY  WOULDN'T COMMIT THE PROPOSAL WOULDNT HAVE GOT THIS FAR

What makes you imagine that? The evidence should be taken from the last time they ran this very competition. Nobody cared. Players didn't bother. It was crap. It had to go.

A bit like Antrim......

Where are you getting that information from? This format isn't fair. The two sides promoted from Division 3 should be in Tier 1.

[Rossfan]

They are( as I said).

[seafoid]

It's good that they are retaining the provincials imo

[Hawkeye9212]

They aren't. Tipperary would still be in Tier 1 this year because all the provincial finalists were Division 1 and 2 teams.

That's not what it says in the rte article

Under the new proposals, Division 3 finalists Westmeath and Laois would have played in a Tier 2 championship rather than the All-Ireland qualifiers this summer

Maybe Ulster and Connacht. But what's the point of the other two?

They will be in a competition they have a chance of winning.
They will avoid the embarrassment of being destroyed by Dublin/Kerry/Mayo/Donegal.
Teams can develop and bring through young players by playing at their own level.
Why would they vote against the proposals?

Players left for America for the summer instead of playing the Tommy Murphy Cup. No one wants this shite, they can f**k off.

1) The Division 4 teams won't be in a competition which they have a chance of winning.

2) The Division 3/4 teams will not avoid the embarrassment of being destroyed. Leitrim/Sligo will still play against Galway and Mayo in Connacht.

3) Let's use a format which has been tried and tested in the other Gaelic games.

In recent years in the championship Kerry stuffed Div 1 Kildare, scoring 7 goals. Div 1 Roscommon got tanked by Tyrone.

Dublin have stuffed Div 1 teams Roscommon, Galway, Tyrone, Kildare, Monaghan  and now Meath.

That's all between Div 1 teams. The top 8. How do you stop those tankings?

When it was 1st before CC it was said that promoted teams from D3 would be classed as D2 /Tiet 1.
Either that's been changed or RTE have got it wrong.
Sure it wont be happening anyway as Hardstation and Bennycake will stop it.
