Ronan McNamee: GPA didn’t explain proposals properly

Tyrone full-back Ronan McNamee says the Gaelic Players Association (GPA) should have given inter-county players better information about the ‘Super 8’ proposals ahead of Saturday’s GAA congress.

The GPA last week came out against the restructuring of the All-Ireland SFC, which will now feature two groups of four at the All-Ireland quarter-final stage from 2018, claiming 70% of their membership had voted against the changes.

McNamee believes the body which represents the GAA’s elite players should have initiated more debate and discussion amongst players on such an important issue.
