John Horan: 'The sin-bin in hurling is binned'

“There was meant to be a bit of support there, but it never materialised so it is very hard to rule a referral for something when nobody on the floor spoke in favour of it, so dare I say it - the sin-bin in hurling is binned."

GAA president John Horan has ruled out further proposals tackling cynicism in hurling after the introduction of the black card/sin bin was strongly rejected at Congress.

A whopping 82% of delegates voted against the playing rules committee’s introduction to extend the measure from Gaelic football to the smaller ball code.
