All or nothing as reality bites in qualifiers
This week, there are 12 contestants. Next week eight, and so on. You want to go all the way. A good start will make an impression on the judges. Each contestant draws a different ‘Bainisteoir’ every week. All are hoping for Tipp or Kilkenny.You dip your hand into a bowl with 12 cards. You turn it slowly. It’s Liam Dunne. Another picks JBM.
Just like monopoly, both select a card from the top. The task screams out in big bold letters — “Your team was beaten in the last game. Develop a plan for the next qualifier.” You have access to film of all games and as many statistics as you require. You play the hand you are dealt and there isn’t much time.
