After a weekend with several high-profile incidents, officiating in the GAA is once again a talking point.

In Sunday’s national league encounter at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, Dublin’s Lee Gannon and Cork midfielder Ian Maguire were both sent off for second yellow cards. There were more disputed decisions in Cusack Park as Clare went down by a point against Kildare although Colm Collins was adamant that was not the reason for their defeat.
