A 12-week ban has been recommended by the GAA for Dublin boss Ger Brennan, following his altercation with Galway S&C coach Cian Breathnach McGinn two weeks ago.
TV footage from TG4 showed Brennan pulling out the earpiece of Breathnach McGinn before pushing him to the ground, but did not show what caused the manager's anger.
However, a new video has emerged, proving what had been widely discussed previously; that Breathnach McGinn had pushed Dublin star Brian Howard while the sides were walking to the changing rooms.
The S&C coach is set for an eight-week suspension, with Galway not looking to appeal.
Given that Breathnach McGinn was not registered before the game as an official, the Sky Blues are expected to appeal the ban which would see Brennan miss a significant chunk of his county's championship run.
