Joe Canning has described the GAA’s disciplinary process as a “joke of a system” after three players had suspensions thrown out.
Canning’s fellow Galwayman Cianan Fahy and Clare duo Rory Hayes and Peter Duggan are all free to line out in Saturday’s All-Ireland quarter-finals despite being proposed for suspensions by the CCCC for incidents arising out of their respective provincial final defeats to Kilkenny and Limerick earlier this month.
All three had their cases heard by the Central Hearings Committee on Wednesday night and saw their bans quashed on technical grounds, with Fahy escaping a two-match suspension, one more than the Clare pair.
