Odd rationale
Itās very unsatisfactory when you see cases like these decided on preliminary points and technicalities without the substantive issues and the alleged incidents of foul play even getting dealt with.
All three, on even a cursory glance of the incidents had a case to answer and at the very least the evidence should be tested.
Itās also completely incorrect, the footage of the Rory Hayes stroke was doing the rounds on social media and WhatsApp that evening hours before TSG aired. The Duggan belt on Finn also was.
This will restore the nations faith in due process after the Mary Fahy/Golfgate debacle
Marty saying this can never happen again on Morning Ireland. Not saying players shd be suspended but saying the procedures have to be done right Frehill appeared confused by this.
Bit amateur of the CCCCC not to know their own disciplinary process
the worst type of set up ever. The only thing Iām surprised at was no one had used this reasoning before. For years GAA teams are using solicitors to try find loopholes to get players off. Its an utter joke of a disciplinary set up.
Itās actually ludicrous.
Never change GAA.
Has there been an online hearing before?
Quell surprise the cavemen in Galwaty canāt work Zoom or email properly.
All those Ehast Galway farmers sons and daughters are finally pulling their weight with all of their legal qualifications.
sounds like we can work it perfectly.
The irony of your username and using a technicality in a GAA disciplinary hearing is only wonderful.
I would have thought a lot of hearings over the past 2 years were held online. I know the vast majority of county gaa hearings were done online and any management meetings etc have all been online also. So now to come out and say an online meeting is not recognised could, if one were so inclined, rule that any GAA meeting held online over the past 2 years are void, which would have included appointments of chairmen, secretaries etc, ratification of rules and fixtures etc.
If this particular online meeting was deemed not to be properly constituted then surely ALL online meetings held during COVID-19 fall into the same bracket. But if you couldnāt meet in person during that time, how could you have an in person meeting to formalise a rule change whereby online meetings were to be permitted? Itās chicken and egg, innitā? It essentially means all GAA matches between March 2020 and now should be declared null & void. Same but different, Iāve a customer trying to get out of something they agreed to during COVID-19 on the basis an electronic signature isnāt valid. Heāll be buoyed by events last night in the GGA world.
You just beat me to the punch on this point.
sorry pal. Iāll delete if you want?
So what youāre saying basically is that Limerick are still stuck on one-in-a-row.
Apparently itās not just the online part. It seems a few other steps were skipped in their haste to get the investigation underway.
No, when two heavy hitters make the same point then it reinforces how intelligent and perceptive we both are.
