In the All-Ireland senior club football final, a player briefly remained on the pitch despite having been subbed.
Changing the rules on subs in GAA “makes sense” following the Kilmacud Crokes v Glen debacle, journalist Conan Doherty has said.
Kilmacud Crokes beat Glen last Sunday 1-09 1-11 but the result has been shrouded in controversy after it turned out that a player on the Dublin team had briefly remained on the pitch despite having been subbed.Under rule 6.44, the penalty for having more than 15 players on the pitch is either a fine, a replay or the opposing team wins by default.
“Regardless of the circumstance, I think people did largely accept that Kilmacud [won] - they were two points the better team. They deserved to be in that position with the last play. “Because we all know that if Glen go and win the replay, there’s always something hanging over that but that’s the scenario we’re in now because of a rule breach.”
