GAA chief asks: 'Is it time to bite the bullet and have two referees?'

“Is it time to bite the bullet and have two referees?” That is the question posed by one of the country’s top GAA administrators, Dublin secretary John Costello.

The Dublin chief is not being critical of the standard of refereeing - rather he believes that the pace of the game at senior intercounty level (particularly in hurling) means that too much is now expected of one whistler.
