[QUOTE="Shabby, post: 5961814, member: 19757"] I don't think anyone would want to lose a divisional final on purpose after getting to that stage. If you want to win a county, you'll have to beat the best so losing a final on purpose to try avoid a certain team or two is already a concession that you're not the best out there! It's definitely another step in the demise of the divisions. It does take a small bit of edge off the final but as said above, I don't think any team would go out to lose a final. It could lead to a few mind games though in that in the likes of Carbery, Muskerry and Duhallow, two teams could meet each other in a divisional final and again in a county final. Always going to be hard to beat a team the second time round especially at this level when there's not much between anyone. It could also lead to a situation where a team could lose two games(first round & final) and still win a county. Not sure I totally agree with that! [/QUOTE]
