A rule was clearly broken with 16 players from Kilmacud involved in the play as they defended a 45 in the dying seconds of last Sunday’s All-Ireland final at Croke Park, holding a two point lead.
Rule 6.44 states that the punishment “on a proven objection” for such an offence is awarding of the game to the opposing team, a replay or a fine, “depending on the circumstances.”
