Summary
Big game drama between Kerry and Donegal heats up as Jim McGuinness and David Clifford get into scuffles—McGuinness pushes, Clifford throws an elbow—yet no cards issued on the field. Ref Seán Hurson missed it, and the GAA’s CCCC opted not to intervene, possibly because suspensions wouldn’t follow appeals anyway. But the Clifford elbow? That’s a red flag—should’ve been a sending off. The CCCC’s hands-off approach lately makes refs look weak when big moments slip through. And here’s the kicker: unlike Ger Brennan, who got a 12-week ban after being red-carded, McGuinness and Clifford’s incidents weren’t even flagged in the referee’s report, leaving the ref potentially under fire while the players walk away unscathed.
