Also see above about delegate votes (11-1), that's why lobbying is required.

11-1. Who was the 1, surely it was Dublin? All their fair and sportsmanlike fans want out of Croke Park don't they? No it wasn't Dublin but Laois! Then when it's decided that the Dubs need a roadtrip what happens? They draw Laois. Can't be giving them a home game though, they voted against the Dubs. So it's moved to Kilkenny. The year after the Dubs draw Carlow, can't play there so they move it to be played in Laois. The place they wouldn't let the game go ahead the year before. Now it's Wicklow that get through but again it's in Laois.
This means that Dublin still haven't played a championship game away from home since 2006. 12 years. So they're playing a game away from home later in the year. But only 1! Their other 2 games are at home. Just think about it for a secend, every single championship game at home for 12 years. That is crazy. What's makes it worse is that this isn't even the biggest scandal involving Dublin.
