What about the corofin player who was sent off in the first half should he not get a lenghty ban too. He bursted opened the brigids defender while frankie barely made contact with sice.

Looking at the video evidence, surprised the Corofin number 3 didn't get a few weeks as he's more responsible than anyone for the Galway mentor's fall . Some fall all the same. Last time I saw two legs cocked up like that was when some old lady leaned too far back in her chair at Bingo.

Connacht club champions St. Brigid's breathed a massive sigh of relief on Thursday night, December 7 when star forward Frankie Dolan was only banned for two months, meaning that he will be eligible to play in February's All-Ireland semi-final.

Dolan received the eight-week suspension after being called before a Connacht Council GAC meeting in Ballyhaunis. The ban was imposed on the former Roscommon star arising from an incident with Corofin chairman Jimmy Sice during last month's Connacht club football final.

The incident occurred after Sice came onto the field to attend to his son Gary, who was injured during the game. Dolan was charged with bringing the game into disrepute and it is understood that he accepted his culpability in the incident.

St. Brigid's had feared that Dolan would been suspended for three months or more, but the eight-week ban clears him to play against Ulster champions Crossmaglen Rangers in the All-Ireland semi-final on February 18.
