DUBLIN FORWARD DIARMUID Connolly has been hit with a proposed 12-week ban for his altercation with linesman Ciaran Brannigan in Saturday night’s Leinster SFC quarter-final against Carlow.
An appeal from the Dublin camp is highly likely, but the proposed ban would rule the St Vincent’s forward out until a potential All-Ireland semi-final.
