Dublin feel let down by LGFA; Cork manager dismisses talk of a replay

Irate Dublin manager Greg McGonigle claimed the Ladies Gaelic Football Association (LGFA) let his team down badly ter the absence of HawkEye in yesterday’s All-Ireland final.

McGonigle was adamant Dublin merited the offer of a replay in the wake of an umpire’s decision not to award Carla Rowe what appeared to be a legitimate point in the first half. A LGFA spokesperson last night explained why the score detection system was not in operation. “It went in front of Central Council, whether or not to use HawkEye, earlier on this year. The decision was taken that in order to have a level playing field for all teams playing on all fields throughout the country, throughout the championship, that we wouldn’t use HawkEye.”
