Pablo Escobar. Brilliant solution. 2 area Senior Football and hurling teams. So simple and solves loads of problems for teams not already Senior

Agree with both of above. All players should have access to play at Senior grade. As said above  just allow last single club team in championship play in Leinster.  Should be simple 😯😯

Great championship right through. Some great games. Ballacolla will be disappointed but after their start to the year they should be proud of Sundays effort. Camross were simply the best team in all Senior competitions this year.
They were also probably the only team in it with a bench strong enough to make a difference.

What a farce. It looks like the CB did more harm than good with their intervention. The Barrowhouse club is getting a raw deal out of this, and its members now have to watch three footballers going to other clubs to play their football. It's obvious reading the above that Daly did all the running and Josephs backed it, as any club would in the same circumstances. The CB have seriously let down Barrowhouse with their failed intervention. They have also failed as a Board to put in place a provision that ensures Senior football is available to everyone whilst simultaneously allowing a lad to stay with his home club. All in all, another embarrassing episode. If this was going on elsewhere, heads would be rolling. What has happened here could be the difference between Barrowhouse staying up or going down. If they do go down, they could argue that Daly wouldn't have got the transfer but for the CB's failed intervention. Interesting stuff

Well put together HF

Most or all of the contentious transfers  would be avoided if the CB gained access for all players to Senior Hurling or Football. As an earlier poster pointed out it works perfectly in  Kerry amongst other counties

Don you're dead right about the Portlaoise problem. About the same population as Kilrenny which has 3 massive hurling clubs as opposed to 1in Portlaoise which often seems to have little interest in hurling. 

Offaly have enough problems of their own. This should go further than the Co board. Hope the boys parents are down at the Garda station this morning reporting this incident.

Getting away with it for years. Pure thugs

Don, I'd like to say your a bit over the top with Finbar but your perfectly correct.  We had a great man in charge and he Finbar wanted us to move on to the next level.  Now we're to go to Division 2. You couldn't make it up.

I suppose from a county board point of view Gilmartin played all his juvenile hurling with Camross so different from the Conroy situation. Also I hear he didn't name his Portlaoise address as his full time abode.

No winners, players, clubs or County. I sometimes think this club championship is more trouble than its worth
.If it didn't exist and we allowed  the single player rule to neighbouring senior club and also be able to play for your own club would be great for all involved.

In Kerry all players have access to Senior football,without transferring from their home clubs. We need similar access in 5 his county.

Brilliant opportunity for the Slieve Mary lads, massive step to Senior and would be great if one could make senior panel

I  think  Ben Conroy went in from a senior club to intercounty hurling.

Keyser we're not trying to tell ye how to run things in Kyle just to point out there are other ways. Fair play with your memory going back to Kieran Carey., one of the most decorated hurlers in the country.
