Walsh and Frost warm to proposals

Two prominent Munster GAA officials have given tentative support to the idea of introducing two more teams into the province’s senior football championship.

Presidential candidate Sean Walsh and Robert Frost, who succeeded him as provincial chairman, have indicated they would be open to the idea put forward by the Football Review Committee.

Under the proposal, two of the three Leinster teams beaten in the preliminary round of their own provincial championship would enter the quarter-final stages of the Munster competition.
