Brennan calls for introduction of video technology
Brennan said three key calls cost Dublin and argued referees should get video assistance to review decisions more quickly.
- On Sunday, Dublin manager Ger Brennan called for the introduction of video technology to support referees after his side's 2-18 to 0-20 All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Kerry at Croke Park.
- Brennan disputed three key officiating decisions: a penalty awarded to Kerry, a goal by Sean O'Brien that appeared to be a square ball violation, and Ross McGarry's disallowed goal-line effort.
- "Referees deserve it, players deserve it," Brennan said, noting his team finished with an around 55% shot-to-score ratio despite human error in high-stakes situations where "every play was about inches."
- While HawkEye is accepted as a success, some critics worry that introducing more video technology could disrupt Gaelic games' flow, potentially mirroring the long stoppages seen in soccer or rugby.
- Brennan argued the GAA faces a reputational problem when viewing audiences see results at variance with refereeing calls, making technology necessary for next year to remove luck from key decisions.
