Are you still going on about this? Crokes were at fault and got away with it, neither Glen nor Joe Brolly have nothing to apologise for , unlike some.

Will crokes or the match officials apologise to Glen? What would be the most decent thing to happen"
There is one thing for sure and it's that the match officials or the GAA will give Glen no apology… Not sure Kilmacud need to offer an apology but the whole thing was shamefully handled by the GAA… Not a peep either from the GAA's great President through the whole mess…?

So you can have 16 men on the pitch and it's not your fault?!!!!

Yes, is that such a difficult concept to embrace?

not sure why or how this is so difficult to comprehend??

a team are allowed make a substitution during a break in play, and so long as they follow the protocols its over to the match officials to make sure the sub is completed before restarting the play. going by the few seconds they took, they clearly didn't allow for the sub to being completed. these things happen in the heat of the moment

Yes of course. The CCCC made it clear that Crokes were not at fault. Clearly after submissions from both teams and officials they concluded that the 45 was taken while Crokes were in the middle of making a substitution. Peoples dislike of Dublin & the Shane Walsh transfer fuelled this whole mess. Crokes have been officially cleared of any wrongdoing now. Congrats to them, the club is an oasis of gaelic games in a very rugby dominated area of Dublin. Very worthy All Ireland champions.

All the blame should not rest with the match officials. I have acted as a club secretary for more than ten years and we have never allowed anything like this to happen, even at a humble Junior B game. I'm sure the overwhelming majority of club secretaries can say the same. It's really a very fundamental principle - if you want to introduce a sub you have to take another player off.

Ref fecked up.
Time to tighten up substitutions- no one comes on till lad being subbed leaves the pitch.
Ref stops his clock and yellow cards a buck that walks off like a 90 year old.

The next lad who gets done post match for video footage for transgressions the referee missed can reference this case as ah sure it's only a small rule....great how the GAA are more than happy to enforce some of their own rules and blindly ignore others. This was a national final broadcast live where rules were clearly broken, but sure it's okay, they didn't mean it.....

Otherwise it's not a replacement rather an addition!

It seems the referee will be required to count the number of players throughout the match from now on. This judgement in relation to this incident does send out the signal that a team can have 16 players on the field and it is not their fault. I have nothing against Crokes or Glen. However, I think the GAA have set a dangerous precedent with how this whole debacle has been handled and the outcome reached. It suggest a team who break a rule: should ask for forgiveness rather than ask for permission.

It was an error on behalf of the match officials ( like the players they are human and go out to do the job as best as they can)

While it may have been a round about way, the CCCC reached the correct outcome by not attributing blame to either team. As i have highlighted numerous times on this thread, the CCCC could not have got involved earlier.

Lessons learned from this sad affair is to review the substitute protocol and make it easier for match officials to police. The current protocol (which is very loose to say the least) has worked since foundation of the GAA. Now the game is faster and teams want to keep play moving, it is now time to review the protocol so that it cn be adapted to the current game.

Another officially created mess in the camogie Ashbourne Cup. Seems that University of Limerick were given the wrong information on score differences, so they are out despite a huge win that they thought had wiped out the deficit.

This is a complete cop-out by the CCCC. Had it been a deliberate act by the Kilmacud management team to have 16 men on the field to defend the last '45' then they should have forfeited the game. The No 14 of Kilmacud should have left the field but instead became the 4th Kilmacud player on the goal line thereby making it much more difficult to score a goal, as well as being the 16th man on the field. It appears that the CCCC now finds this to be 'no fault' of Kilmacud so why order a replay in the first instance, doesn't add up. Not true, once Glen got off their case the CCCC became sheep again.
Stop Press: Suspicion has now moved to the Officials in charge of the match, not to the Teflon brigade in Dublin 3. It must have broke their tiny hearts to see Kilcoo stage their smash and grab last year.

And you from a county whose hurlers had to be dragged kicking and screaming into replaying a game that everyone knew within minutes had ended as a draw :-)

Anyone who thinks that the sub mess was a deliberate ploy to have extra men on the field is stretching things.

Simple.. Ref shouldn't have restarted game till the subbed players left the pitch.
Surely some of the SEVEN other Officials could have helped him with the substitutions process.
