The Gaelic Players Association has offered support to Clare hurlers Davy O'Halloran and Nicky O'Connell.

The players' departure from the Banner hurling squad has been well documented and the representative organisation has come under fire for their silence on the issue.

But, in a statement released on their website (gaelicplayers.com), the Dessie Farrell led organisation say they are working behind the scenes in the Banner County.

'Having looked into the situation in Clare and having consulted with parties involved, the Gaelic Players Association's dealings in this matter are and will remain of a confidential nature.

'We have outlined to the players involved that GPA support is available to them through our progammes and services.

'In respect to all parties, the GPA will be making no further comment'.
