Tyrone and Dublin to appeal NFL suspensions

THE GAA’s Central Appeals Committee meet tomorrow night to hear the appeals of the seven Dublin and Tyrone players suspended in the wake of the Healy Park dust-up.

Tyrone trio Kevin Hughes, Owen Mulligan and Michael McGee, along with Dublin’s Ciaran Whelan, Alan Brogan, Kevin Bonner and Bryan Cullen, are due to attend the Croke Park hearing.

Six of the seven were hit with eight-week bans, with Cullen suspended for four weeks, after the Central Disciplinary Committee carried out an investigation into the incidents which marred an explosive NFL tie on February 5.
