GAA forced to backtrack on Hawk-Eye

THE GAA has been forced to row back on plans to introduce Hawk-Eye technology at Croke Park this weekend, amid suggestions it mightn’t be introduced this summer at all.

Association chiefs had agreed to a two year trial of Hawk-Eye’s score detection technology beginning this weekend.

But the double-header of Leinster championship games involving All-Ireland holders Dublin will come and go without any official monitoring.
