Seán Cavanagh has questioned the need for a competition which has a clear winner every year.

SUNDAY GAME PUNDIT Seán Cavanagh believes that the Leinster football championship has become a “pitiful” competition as Dublin look to be on course for a 13th title in-a-row this year.

Cavanagh also questioned the need for persisting with a competition which has an outright winner with no close contenders every year.

“The Leinster championship might be a great championship if Dublin weren’t there. It just feels like, in such a condensed season, we spend precious time in championship mode playing games that are non-events.”
