The Gaelic Players Association have raised “red flags” with the GAA over elements around the staging of an interprovincial series in Croke Park this weekend to road-test the playing rule enhancements conceived by the Football Review Committee (FRC).
GPA chief executive Tom Parsons acknowledged that a Friday game at 6pm, requiring some players to take half-days or even a full day off work, was a “significant concern”. The series is invitational.
