GPA ask GAA to take cynical play motion off the table Updated / Thursday, 25 Feb 2021 13:57 RTÉ GAA reporter Gaelic Players Association boss Paul Flynn has written to GAA director general Tom Ryan requesting that the cynical play/sinbin/penalty motion be withdrawn from Annual Congress this Saturday. In a note to GPA members, Flynn revealed that 70% of inter-county hurlers and 54% of inter-county footballers who were surveyed on the matter did not support the motion. Even some of those who did agree with the motion had reservations and many "caveats". This morning the GPA have called for the GAA to defer the motion until Special Congress later this winter, like other contentious motions which have already been moved back.
