What would you think of playing the qualifiers BEFORE the provincial championships?
The qualifiers would be a 32-county (since London have opted to play in qualifiers and NY and KK haven't) open draw competition. The 4 teams that came through could meet the provincial champions in the All-Ireland quarter-finals. If a team came through the qualifiers and also won their provincial championships they would go straight into the semis.
