Dubs challenge McMahon ban

Dublin are set for another trip through the GAA’s appeals process after the county indicated it would contest Philly McMahon’s proposed one-match ban for his part in an incident with Kerry captain Kieran Donaghy during the All-Ireland football final.

The GAA’s Central Competitions Control Committee had proposed a one-match ban for the incident, where McMahon’s hand made contact with Donaghy’s eyes.

But Dublin have decided to appeal the verdict and the case will be heard before the Central Hearings Committee.
