Hurling development chair Jimmy O’Dwyer backs sin-bin
The chair of the GAA’s Hurling Development Committee has backed the introduction of the sin bin to the game.
Jimmy O’Dwyer, a Templemore man living in Castleknock, stressed he has not yet discussed the playing rules committee’s motion with the rest of his group.
However, it’s his personal opinion that the game would be served better were the black card to be implemented because of the cynicism that has come into hurling.
He does, however, feel the time-keeping of the sin-bin period would need to be cleared up were it to become a permanent fixture in hurling.
“I think it is a good idea. Obviously, what is very important is that the 10 minutes the player spends off the field is game-time. I’m thinking in light of what happened to Bubbles (John O’Dwyer) in Cork last Saturday and the time taken for his injury to be assessed.
“I would like to see the sideline official help the referee ensure that is the case because there won’t be a public clock on this. I know the integrity of the game, when it becomes 15 v 14, changes but it might make people think a bit.
