I’d still disagree, our club sides are appropriately placed and Kerry is the anomaly here that needs looking at, we’re the joint 3rd most successful county at club level in both Intermediate and Junior football as it stands, Kerry are far in front in both.
Both Kilmurry and Cill na Martra, have won provincial titles in recent years, likewise, the club sides we do send out are miles above those from the other counties and would probably win some of the other provinces (look at how one-sided Buttevant’s Munster quarter-final was).
Plus our hurling sides are more than strong enough at the same grades (if anything they’re too strong at junior), we should be keeping the grades consistent across hurling and football for the sake of our duel clubs within Cork, not changing grades for potentially 3 bonus matches with Kerry sides in the middle of winter.
