Wexford probe final incident

During the second-half, Sarsfields player Niall Sheil sustained a broken jawbone in an off-the-ball incident.

The County Disciplinary Committee has initiated a full investigation following a request from Sarsfields, who are annoyed at the alleged unprovoked assault on their player.

The disciplinary committee, having discussed the latter at a meeting on Wednesday night, decided to accede to Sarsfields’ request.

At a recent Wexford minor football Division 5 final involving Taghmon- Camross and Blackwater, County

Underage Chairman Denis Nolan condemned the after-match violence during his speech.

He roundly condemned the row, despite his own club Taghmon-

Camross being involved, claiming it had no place in the GAA.
