The former Kilkenny hurler Eddie Brennan took to his twitter yesterday after what looked like a guess from the umpire in the Clare vs Waterford match in Ennis.
See his tweets below and the comments underneath ..
How do you know it was guess work? You could clearly see it coming off the Hurley of the Waterford player. And he was right next to it. He got the call right give the man some credit. What is shocking is the behaviour from coaches and players at this level
The umpire hadn’t a clue you could clearly see by his body language. He was just about to wave it wide when he signalled for a 65 instead. Right call, but what or who changed his mind?
Need VAR or similar TMO tech for crucial decisions like that in GAA
In rugby when such dilemmas need to be considered, upstairs to TMO and there’s no guess work about it..A decision that is that important should be the right call. There needs to be a TMO even for 1 or 2 calls a game
