Always with the personal insults sedico it just goes to show what type of man you are, I suppose what would you expect from a Kildare man.

Generalising an entire county of people on the basis of what one poster says, I suppose what would you expect from a Clondalkin man...

I don't mean to be smart Ulsterman, but no-one cares who wins it anymore, and haven't for 40 years or more. It used to have a currency when people got to see the great players before TV made that a more common experience. It was often the only chance many people got to see Ring or O'Connell or Seán O'Neill or John Doyle. There is not the same draw now to see the big names, and few of the big names see winning it as any particular honour.

And you would classify this post as what?

What's worse is that other Kildare posters including myself have tried to logically explain it and you've brushed over them just so you could keep up this pretence that you've just broken your monacle in horrified shock and the ghastly actions of those hellish Kildare men.

But I blame the GAA themselves for putting the inter pro's on at this time of the year. Why not October when the calender is less congested?

Because Jinxie , that would be common sense, And we all know that common sense doesn't prevail when it comes to the GAA

-------------------------

Just out of curiosity, if it was on during October, what would your views on Dublin players being involved then? Surely the likes of Bernard Brogan risks a serious injury in the int rules than in a proper game of football?

I don't know lads. Issues with players playing right throughout the year then to the detriment of clubs.

The GAA seriously need to take a look at the GAA calendar. At the moment its Pre League Competitions/Colleges, then League, then Championship, Club Championships going on between and of course Intercounty Clubs Competition. And I've left out a lot of other stuff. This is year in/year out.

In soccer its only every two years that you have a World Cup/Euros. Maybe something like this should be considered for some of the GAA competitions.

He does , But lets face it i'd rather Bernard get injured in October so that he would have 3 months to recover before the league or 9 months before the championship from a greedy Dublin fan perspective..

Personally i think the Inter Provincial thing is a load of nonsense anyway thats just my opinion so i would prefer if Dublin players didnt play in it or at least if they did dont break their necks trying.. Again thats probably a terrible attitude to have but i'm a supporter of Dublin and therefore only have the interests of Dublin at the forefront of my mind so literally couldnt care less about anything else. If a Dublin player risks being injured in these games , I'd rather them not play wether it be February or October... If i had to pick a time to play them it would be October..

I would assume playing for their club/county in the Dublin championship/Leinster/All ireland would be more important than playing a provincial match for Leinster against Connacht in a nothing game. Because lets face it , Whatever the tradition is, The provincials are a load of nonsense games. Made even worse by the timing of them this year. You just have to look at the attendances these games get to prove that people are not really attracted to these games.

What do you think ?

sedico if you had your way the gaa would copy soccer on everything they do it seems.
the problem here is the timing and the lack of coverage the competition gets in our media,if it was on in october as people say and was marketed properly you could even use it as as preparation for that stupid international rules if people are that obsessed at keeping that alive.
it used to be a great competition when ireland was actualy able to think for itself but unfortunatly nowadays this is yet another sign of modern ireland that we need an american or british inspirations to have any interest in a comptetition of this value,yet i guarantee you if the rugby board decided to play an interprovincial competition the exact same its level of acceptance in the media would be huge and thus leading the sheep in this country to believe its a great competition

I would love to see the reaction on here if Dublin players refused to play for Leinster. Club fixtures can easily be moved around in Kildare so it's no clashing.

@hill16. How would be feel about a throw in instead of a sideline ball?

Seriously though its something that could be looked at -biennial competitions. We all talk about burnout but nothing is being done.

Course it would.

Sure aren't the provincial rugby teams already fully professional with some of the best players in the world lining out for them. That would definitely be a worthwhile competition.

The biggest advantage a rugby competition like the Railway Cup would have though is the fact that the provinces already have massive support basis.

If you ask a rugby fan from Galway, Cork, Down or Dublin what team they support they'll say Connacht, Munster, Ulster and Leinster.

Ask GAA fans from the same counties what team they support and they'll tell you the name of their county, they certainly won't name their province as the GAA team they follow.
