DRA Overturns Ban on Loughrea’s Cullen Killeen, Clearing Him for All-Ireland Club Final

The independent panel ruled that earlier GAA reviewers misapplied the disciplinary standard.

Overview

  • A three-member DRA panel met in Dublin on Friday night and quashed the CHC and CAC rulings.
  • The authority said the CAC used the wrong test when assessing the CHC’s treatment of evidence and the Referee’s Report.
  • The outcome restores the midfielder’s eligibility for Sunday’s decider against Ballygunner at Croke Park.
  • Killeen had been sent off late in the semi-final for striking Slaughtneil’s Brendan Rogers with his hurl.
  • Referee Johnny Murphy issued the red card after consulting a linesman during the Parnell Park tie.
