What difference would 'The Mark' have made to yesterday's Allianz League action?

Our GAA writers kept their eyes on the skies during yesterday's action, to gauge what impact the new 'mark' rule might have been it is introduced.

Dublin v Monaghan

Conor McManus made the most spectacular catch of the game, outfielding David Byrne to score the point that levelled the game in the 63rd minute. From actual kick-outs, where the rule will apply, Monaghan made a number of clean fetches, notably off Dublin restarts, in the first 25 minutes. Kieran Hughes was a reliable primary ball winner in this period before limping off.
