Why Portlaoise now?

The problem as I see it is that the Leinster counties don't ever work together. I mean Laois were annoyed last year and got no support as it didn't affect the other counties, this year Carlow are annoyed but Laois are probably quite happy with the situation now! Ditto every other year ever.

It's ridiculous. There are 11 counties in Leinster not called Dublin. They could have Dublin playing every single Leinster Championship game away from home if they wanted to.

The big bad 'GAA' and 'pandering to the Dubs' is always blamed but in reality it is completely and has always been in the control of the other Leinster counties. They're inability to see past their own noses is quite galling.

When Dublin went down to play in Longford years ago there was an unreal atmosphere

counties like Carlow deserve to play the AI champions in their own ground
