WE’RE USED TO Hawkeye at Croke Park at this stage for hurling and Gaelic football action.
Now camogie is getting set to embrace the score detection technology system.
The Camogie Association have confirmed that Hawkeye will be in use at next Sunday’s All-Ireland finals.
Hawk-Eye was first activated at the Leinster senior football quarter-finals double header on 1 June 2013 and was trialled for 14 months prior to coming into use.
Next Sunday’s triple-header of camogie action sees reigning champions Cork take on Galway in the senior decider.
The intermediate final will be a battle between Kildare and Waterford while it’s Roscommon against Laois in the premier junior showdown.
“It is an exciting element to add to our All-Ireland finals,” said Camogie Association President Catherine Neary.
“The data collected will prove valuable from a coaching and games point of view and also an enhanced spectator experience.”
Come on Limerick
Great second half from Limerick, but they’d want to sort out those wides.
Kiely very slow to take Hickey off, Mike Casey should be already in
@Gaaonthefence: or Richie McCarthy. Either way get Hickey out of there asap.
Limerick going to regret all these wides
@Kevin Shortall: they sure are Kevin.
@Shane Doherty: as a Kilkenny man I’m delighted
Take nothing away from Limerick, I think the whole country would like to see them do well. But as a Tipp supporter, how James McGrath can officiate at this level concerns me. He is getting even the most basic decisions wrong and is so inconsistent to how he applies the rules. Just rid of Kirwan after years of bias and now we have to watch this clown ruining games.
@Dave Russell: I think the standard is poor across the board but i suppose it is a thankless job. Is there a case to look at two referees on the pitch at either end.
Here we go again, ref doing his best to ruin it, major boo boo in this lad yet ..
@Gerry Campbell: or the fact that Limerick can’t stop giving away stupid frees
@Tom49: they are all frees alright….and thats coming from a limerick man
@Tom49: well undeniably true Tom .
Very poor referee? Compliments to both teams that the game didn’t boil over?
Killing ourselves with the wides but great to see some discipline in 2nd half, great start to the campaign and something to build on now! Hon Luimneach
Well done mike ryan
Great day. The RESSURECTION started that day
