Down Club Hurling & Football

[Square Ball]

Has the championship draw started?

[skat man]

Is Gaa as a sport stagnating and slowly starting to die out in general , particularly at senior grade ? Seems to be no excitement around leagues and a bit of buzz created 2 months of the year for championship. Much the same happens for county too. Maybe its got to do with the standard of football as in Down I would argue its at its lowest in 15/20 years .

Fair point. The league doesn't seem to excite at senior level. Maybe there should be an incentives to finish higher up the league. Ie. the winners just win the league and the top 4 have a guaranteed home 1st round tie in the championship.
Also the championship really only excites at knockout stage.

Paul McGovern and Barra McEvoy appear to be excellent future prospects.
