Toss The Burner: Nov. 19, 2008
Posted on November 19th, 2008 by Mike under toss the burnerHurling doesn’t fool around when it comes to discipline. This makes Roger Goodell’s dealing with Pacman Jones look like permissive parenting…
A LENGTHY 96-week ban has been handed down to [John Cussen] following an incident in the west Limerick team’s county junior A hurling championship semi-final win over St. Patrick’s.
Cussen was charged with “bringing the game to disrepute” after he joined in a brawl that broke out in the final quarter of a game between Monagea and St. Patrick’s. Order was eventually restored, and the game finished with Monagea prevailing.
Kenneth Dawson, of St. Patrick’s, was also banned for 12-weeks for abusive treatment of a match official.
The Competition Control Committees of Irish Hurling do not take these incidents lightly. Last May, eight players from teams in Cork and Clare were suspended for a match following a brawl. Cussen’s ban of nearly two years was pinned on him by the Limerick Competition Control Committee. No mention if an appeal to Hurling’s Central Competition Control Committee will be sought.
