A motion to allow for provincial senior football finals to go to replays if level after extra-time will be debated at Congress next month.

A proposal, which incorporated both codes, had been put forward at last year’s Congress but was withdrawn for further consultation. Munster GAA had argued against it applying to their senior provincial hurling championship.
