The vast majority of GAA’s suite of disciplinary measures sailed through Annual Congress in Croke Park on Saturday afternoon.

Put together by the three main disciplinary bodies, the Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC), Central Hearings Committee (CHC) and Central Appeals Committee (CAC) largely on foot of disciplinary flashpoints, anomalies and procedural issues last year, 16 of the 19 recommendations were endorsed by delegates. CHC chairman Brian Rennick presented them.
