All Ireland Club Championships 2024

[Milltown Row2]

To be fair it's not Austin Stacks fault that they are in this position.

There is a handy Intermediate Club AI to be won and you can't expect them to renege on that.

The system is set up for them and it's up to the authorities to set the rules. 

3 former senior winners could be in the last 4 of the AI Intermediate

Crossmolina were relegated in 2018. They were not good enough to remain in the Top 16 of Mayo Football! Winning the AI 17 years earlier has little relevance to the present Crossmolina group.

Little relevance but I guarantee they're sick of hearing about how much better those lads were than they are

Most clubs go through cycles, sometimes it's great and other times it's just ok, it's about making the most of the good times, and preparing for the next generation.

Crossmolina, done that, I wouldn't imagine the current players dwell on that great team, probably most can remember or were an age that loved the road trips, they'd be great memories tbf

Going back one page in this thread also answers your question.

I'm prickish one after posting up all fixtures with dates, times and venues?

Ballinderry Division 1 club can't really complain, they're doing the exact same in Derry letting Division 1 clubs playing Intermediate & Division 2 clubs play Junior.

On Sunday, Dr Crokes will face Errigal Ciaran in the All-Ireland senior semi-final in Portlaoise.

Crokes beat St Brendan's in the Kerry SFC semi-final.

The St Brendan's team had Michael Tansley, Colin Griffin, Armin Heinrich, Joe O'Connor, Daniel Kirby and Paddy Lane playing that day.

Those six will all be playing for Austin Stacks in Saturday's All-Ireland intermediate semi-final against Ballinderry.

Good article, they want to eat their cake and still have their cake and its bullshit

Then again Kerry not being able to play in the Munster Hurling Championship is also bullshit

More reform needed

Seems to be that every county seems to do what suits themselves.  Derry seems to have done this just this past year or two.

Good now there's a light being shone on these things now. Whether it makes any difference, time will tell.

It's mainly affecting the intermediate and junior championships.  I think, in a way, that teams at these levels are happy to win their county championships and they're not badly worried about the system.  then they get a trimming an they're not happy. Understandable.

The provincial councils must make rules and then enforce them - like Sars representing Cork, instead of senior championship winners Imokilly, in the Munster championhip. 

[Milltown Row2]

Imokilly, couldn't play in the provincial championship

Same as East Kerry in the football if they had one Championship in Kerry

[general_lee]

Imokilly is a regional amalgamation, which are banned from provincial competitions.
