Aishlinn hit the nail on the head, even if she didn't mean it.

She wants the GAA to subsidise the intercounty camogie and LGFA players expenses.

I wonder what they get now for the CA and the LGFA!

Crux of the issue is that 3 organizations are to merge.
Two of the groups (LGFA & Camogie) have no money and only one has- GAA

Bizarre stuff.

No attempt to explain why the merger is happening. A brief explanation as to why the GAA slowed this down and then the minister getting a bollicking for a GAA decision. The casual viewer will end up much more confused after watching that mess.

Marty Morrissey wearing a pink blazer for a recent news report on the topic just about sums the whole thing up, embarrassing patter from a bunch of wet wipes

Sums it up.
Also only 1 has pitches, dressing rooms, stadiums etc.
A bit like if Moldova, Albania and Germany were amalgamating.
Who'd be paying all the bills?

Mary wants a free dinner and scissors to cut a big ribbon at the end, should of rolled up the sleeves instead, thats how you create a 140 year legacy complete with national infrastructure

That time Ireland bid to host the rugby world cup with 8 of the 12 stadia vested in the GAA, how many were complaining about the GAA then?

What future is that?

The best solution here for the GAA is to just leave things exactly where they are.
An amalgamation only benefits Camogie and LGFA.

Simple fact is there were more people at the Armagh vs down ulster semi final than there was at this years ladies all ireland final.

Lots of complaining about equality etc. Simple fact is not even alot of womem support womens teams.

It's not that simple in the slightest. There are countless studies to show investment in and promotion of girls' and women's sport pays off. Payback period might not be as short as people want but a unified association is a stronger commercial animal.

Of course the GAA is the big fish in with the minnows here and of course the legacy men's GAA would subsidise the legacy LGFA and Camogie side of things. Everyone knows this, it's not news.

There are absolutely many important things to iron out but individual loss of position at club, county, provincial and association level cannot be ignored. Some dedicated and hard working volunteers, in all three organisations (along with their perks) will have to accept that there is no longer room for them.

There will always be some vacancy to fill in a voluntary organisation.

Yes but there are an awful lot of county secretaries (as an example), and in all three associations) who would have no interest in losing their role simply because someone else is getting it.
