Living and working in Belfast apparently. Its obviously allowed otherwise he wouldn't be playing. Dublin teams have had players from all over the country playing for them
Can you name any Dublin player who came from another county but did not join a Dublin club?

He won an All-Ireland with Kildare in 1919 and with Dublin in 1923. Pretty certain he never lined out for a Dublin club. He also competed in the high-jump at the 1924 Olympics.

None of which have any relevance as they seem to be men playing for their home county, but different clubs, whereas O'Neill is playing for his home club, but not his home county, if I'm not mistaken...

Ya see, the whole thing is up in the air given the hooring and touring of some of these lads.

O'Neill is living in Belfast and playing with Antrim. Might be able to go home and play for Omagh at the weekend.
Collie Holmes living in Armagh, can make it to Omagh to train with Tyrone but can't make it to the Moy to play club football.

was there not a falling out between holmes and moy?

eh, are you deliberately missing the point?

To move county, you must play club football in your adopted county?

I think we have given plenty of examples. Think if the lad turns out to be a cracker he'll be back playing for Tyrone.

Have u given any examples of players who have changed county without moving to a club in the new county?

By your reasoning, any player can play for any county as long as they come up with an address there?
