Limerick question legitimacy of final loss

Limerick will ask Croke Park to review the legitimacy of their Division 1B final defeat after it was revealed Dublin unknowingly fielded an illegal player.

Paul Ryan, who scored 1-8 against Limerick in Thurles on April 6, had been sent off for a straight red card offence in the round three game between the counties in Croke Park on March 16.

Dublin’s free-taker duly served a one-match ban and missed the following weekend’s game against Wexford.
