He may be one of the most staunch defenders of the GAA's traditional values but when it comes to the law, Joe Brolly doesn't have room for emotion. The RTÉ pundit has been strangely quiet on the issue of Tiernan McCann's dive up to this point. However, now that the CCCC have reportedly handed down an eight match ban to the Tyrone man, Brolly has had his say.

In his guise as a well regarded solicitor, Brolly was asked for his thoughts on the ban by Irish News columnist Philip Jordan and the RTÉ pundit put his legal hat on and explained why the ban is little more than posturing from the GAA.

Mickey Harte will probably have known much of that by this stage but nonetheless he'll be more than happy with that free advice. The CCCC's decision to hand down the lengthy ban may serve to prevent other players from taking similar decisions in the future.

However, at the moment it seems like little is going to come of this other than Tyrone's siege mentality tactics being ramped up to unseen levels.
