Thing is, you're not quite comparing like with like there. In Dublin, if a player lines out with a particular club (let's call them Ballymore Gaels), and you suspect he's illegal, it's a simple matter of checking to see if he's properly registered with Ballymore Gaels that year. That's because since there's no parish rule, there'd have been nothing stopping him from joining that club in the first place. Difference here is that he might have been registered with Ballymore Gaels since he was six years old, but still not be properly "legal" for them if he was never properly entitled to join them in the first place, when his parents first sent him to the pitch there. So to prove he was illegal, under the bye-law quoted in my last post, you'd have to show either (a) that he didn't attend school there, or (b) that his parents didn't live there at the time of his birth, or (c) he didn't satisfy any of the other general "relevant connections" conditions either. And remember, this could involve going back 20 years or more. Would probably be a job for a private investigator rather than a GAA committee!
