Whelan to return for Dubs when ban ends

Jason Whelan is likely to return to the Dublin panel once he serves out his eight-week ban handed down by the Leinster Council.

The Ballymun Kickhams player accrued the suspension after “inflicting injury recklessly” on an opponent during last month’s O’Byrne Cup game with DCU in Parnell Park.

Asked if Whelan had been subject to in-camp correction as well, Jim Gavin said: “No, he has got his suspension and that’s it — we move on.”
