International rules

[befair]

It was a great concept for many reasons; it gave wonderful players from lesser counties a stage, and it allowed gaelic footballers the chance to represent their country. For many years it was keenly contested, but it has probably had it's day

Let's stop pesky kids enjoying themselves.
The IR series more than pays for itself anyway.

They should have a second tier one let Antrim have a chance to play for their country.

[Rossfan]

Should abolish Antrim altogether.

Would you like to see it revived , or will it just be a  handy  shop window  for the AFL?

If there's one thing we need, it's more matches

The Minor football championship is the recruiting ground.

not having it hasn't stopped the two best players Meath have produced since Geraghty and Giles been tapped. I'm talking about McBride and Armstrong. By adult age the afl ain't interested in them. It's all about the minor championship. So if we really want to take our players out of the afl window then you should be calling for the scrapping of minor championship. No afl scout attends senior county games , but the minor championship is full of them.

Ben Murphy Kerry u20 joining Brisbane.

Would be surprised if young McDonald from Mayo is not on the radar of a few Aussie teams, seems to have a serious leap on him.

Yeah had seen rumours of him being linked. Would be a huge loss to the GAA, some talent from what I've see of him

[Rossfan]

I'd say McDonald is a cert to go.

I thought they were  bringing this back!

Any news on  it returning btw?
