Croke Park stadium director Peter McKenna has confirmed that the Hill 16 crowd barrier will be reinstalled for next month's Allianz Football League Division 1 final at GAA headquarters.

The Gaelic Players Association (GPA) has given its full support to the decision taken by the GAA's Central Council last weekend to erect a 2.8 metre barrier at the Dineen Terrace (Hill 16) end of Croke Park, in a bid to end pitch invasions.
