Moran's ban is lifted

Dublin's Colin Moran
Dublin's Colin Moran has been dramatically cleared to play in Sunday's Leinster SFC final against Wexford after his four-week suspension was overturned by the Disputes Resolution Authority.
The Ballyboden St. Enda's clubman picked up the ban after the Central Competitions Control Committee asked referee Padraig Hughes to review an incident involving Westmeath's Dermot Bannon in the early stage of the Leinster SFC semi-final, which led to the Armagh official upgrading the yellow card he showed at the time to a red.
Moran, who previously had his appeal upheld by the Central Appeals Committee, hasn't been named in Paul Caffrey's starting XV but his availability is a huge boost for the Dubs who are going in search of their fourth provincial title win in-a-row.
The verdict also provides hope for Monaghan midfielder Paul Finlay and Kerry captain Paul Galvin who have appeared before the DRA in recent days in a bid to have their suspensions lifted.
