What if... Ireland v Oz in Int Rules next week

[03,05,08]

The Railway cup though, who wouldn't want to see the best players from each province go head to head.

What age are you?
The last 20 odd years of the Railway Cup was ignored by 99.99% of GAA followers.
The last few years of the Rules thing still attracted round 30k attendances.

So are   most games  that aren't televised.........ladies  league/championship games , minor/u20 championship, minor league,  lower hurling tier competitions,  junior/intermediate provincial  games, schools/college games, etc etc

Read the whole context before you start letting go with both barrels.

The majority of pitches in Roscommon are shit holes...

Railway Cup - oh the romance! 

More romance to it and interest I would have than Int Rules

I hear ya brother. Gathering the guts of 80 top level lads for 3 games would not be easy.

There is no money in it - at the end of the day headquarters are not going to be part of a loss leader.

A bit of imagination. Winners get a holiday and a free world class S&C coach for the team for a year

does the S&C coach get a choice in this?

No doubt you've surveyed them all and have a link to your report?

Are you too embarrassed to add 21 to your handle?😜
