Final decision to be made on deployment of Hawk-Eye in All-Ireland hurling final

The GAA has said it will undertake full end-to-end testing of the Hawk-Eye system before a final decision will be made as to its deployment for Sunday’s All-Ireland hurling final.

A Shane Walsh ‘45 was ruled to not have been scored by Hawk-Eye in the All-Ireland football semi-final between Galway and Derry when video evidence had suggested the ball was clearly over the bar.

A full report into the issues at Croke Park has been received from Hawk-Eye, the GAA statement said.

“A combination of unrelated issues, including minor hardware failures, led to an erroneous finding for a score towards the end of the first half of the first GAA Football semi-final, which was promptly queried by match officials who subsequently took the decision to award the score.”

“Hawk-Eye have also confirmed that there were no historical issues with the system and that the problems experienced relate to last Saturday only and specifically to the Hill 16 end goal for that specific moment in time.

“The GAA is to undertake a full review of its own protocols relating to when and how the system should be stood down if similar challenges are to arise in the future.”
