High scores as players adjust to new rule
Saturday and Sunday set at least a five-year record for scores in the opening round of the competition, with managers James Horan and Jason Ryan claiming players were afraid to make tackles.
McGee said: “Players are just getting used to it and as it so often has been proven it takes an awful long time for any part of the GAA family to adjust to a new rule. Generally, people ignore it until it’s happening despite all the advice they’re given and these rules have had a long germination period.
