Top referees divided on issue of retaining experimental rules

IRELAND’S top GAA referees, Diarmuid Kirwan and Marty Duffy, were split yesterday on the issue of the current experimental rules and whether they should be retained for the championships.

Saturday week’s Annual Congress meeting in Down will ultimately decide what, if any, of the rules are kept permanently.

Unsurprisingly, both hold strong views on the rules as they’re the ones who have been implementing them since the Allianz leagues began.
