It has been reported that Laois forward Gary Walsh has been suspended from their inter-county panel following a meeting with the Laois county board. The board and the management team held a meeting with Walsh last night following a tweet that Walsh posted in relation to the verdict in the Ulster rape trial involving rugby players Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding. Walsh posted the tweet on Wednesday after the verdict was handed down but it has subsequently been deleted. — Laois GAA (@CLGLaois) March 28, 2018Mo Chara, MW hire group as @CLGLaois wish to disassociate themselves from players views. — MW Hire Group (@mwhire) March 28, 2018Walsh will not take part in the Division 4 final match against Carlow in Croke Park tomorrow.
