FORMER Down footballer James McCartan will not be disciplined by the GAA arising out of the challenge game a year ago in which Westmeath’s Kenny Larkin suffered a broken jaw in an off-the-ball incident.

The Westmeath player at the centre of an alleged attack that broke his jaw in a challenge game has hit out at the lenient one-month sentence for the assailant.

Rising Westmeath football star Finian Newman hasn't ruled out taking legal action after sustaining a freak jaw injury in a club game.
