    When you hear stories of Clare offering Donal Og more money than what he was getting paid by RTE you wonder how this organisation works. Is this an amateur or a professional game? I have zero problem with players/mentors being financially rewarded for the work they do but transparency is needed. The hypocrisy of the GAA is astounding.

    Just notice something about that photo. Have rules been changed to allow sponsors’ logos on hurls? Remember the controversy when Paddy Power tried it a fee years ago?
