Footage emerges of red-card collision that left Kyle Hayes injured
The multiple All-Ireland winner was compelled to undergo an MRI scan and was put in a neck brace after he was reportedly concussed in the incident.
Newcastle West full-back Maurice Murphy was red carded for the tackle midway through the first half of the game at Seán Finn Park.
After Hayes was replaced, the teams eventually shared the spoils, having each scored 2-16.
As a result of the injury, Hayes was unable to attend the wedding of his fellow Limerick half-back Diarmaid Byrnes to his fiancée Elaine Kennedy in Killarney on Saturday.

Horse racing tips: ‘He's always looked a Group horse' – Templegate's 3-1 NAP is all class
TEMPLEGATE tackles Saturday's racing confident of keeping his hot run going - and building the bank for York next week. Back a horse by clicking their odds. MORE THUNDER (3.35 Newbury, nap) Can go like lightning in the Hungerford Stakes. Trainer William Haggas has a fantastic record in this Group 2 with three wins since 2015 including last year with Tiber Flow. More Thunder looks more than capable of delivering at this level after his battling Bunbury Cup win at Newmarket last time. That came after six furlongs proved a couple of yards too short when he flew home for second in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot. He's looked potentially more than a handicapper all season after he kicked off with back-to-back wins at Newmarket in the style of a classy performer. He deserves his chance at this level and looks well up to it. Advertisement CRACKING GOLD (3.00 Newbury, nb) Can shine for Clive Cox. He has been in flying form all season and looks hard to beat. I go through all the runners for this race below. SECRET GUEST (3.20 Ripon, treble) Can star in the William Hill Great St Wilfrid Handicap. He was an excellent third in the race 12 months ago for trainer Bryan Smart who has given him a little break since a good second at Thirsk last time out. The five-year-old is back from just 3lb higher than last year but his rider's claim takes care of that. He's drawn well in stall 11 and ticks all the boxes for this competitive contest. Advertisement Templegate's TV verdicts NEWBURY 1.50 PINHOLE looked a lot more than a handicapper when bolting up at Ascot last time. Advertisement That was just his third run for Ralph Beckett and he stormed home over 1m4f to suggest this longer trip would bring further improvement. He deserves another crack at this stronger company. Epic Poet didn't enjoy 1m4f in the Hardwicke at Royal Ascot after going close in the Yorkshire Cup and will be happier at this distance. Nightime Dancer chased home potential superstar Scandinavia here last time and should find this challenge a bit simpler. Candleford has a Listed win on his CV this season but needs to bounce back from a moderate effort at Goodwood last time. Advertisement 2.25 RHYTHM N HOOVES is music to my ears. Robert Cowell's speedster looked right back to his best when flashing home for second in a hot Ascot sprint last month. He's well-handicapped from just 2lb higher, thrives on fast ground and Billy Loughnane knows exactly how to deliver him late. A truly-run race should see him swooping past tiring rivals in the final 100 yards. Getreadytorumble is a big danger after a string of good efforts at this distance, while Glamorous Breeze has the class to pounce if the gaps open. Advertisement Sugar Hill Babe, drawn in stall one, could give them plenty to think about from the front but she's likely to set things up nicely for the tip. 3.00 I'VE got a Cracking bet on the box at Newbury. CRACKING GOLD (3.00, nb) was an impressive winner here two runs ago before close close at Goodwood. He can take another step forward for Clive Cox. Classic, Consolidation and Leadman can give him most to do. Advertisement Here's my guide to the field, where I rate them out of one (worst) and five (best) stars: CRACKING GOLD 5 GOLD star. Looked better than ever with a strong Goodwood second in a big field last time. He's suited by pace and trip, handles all ground and runs well fresh. Reliable and progressive profile suggests he's the one to beat. HAVANA PUSEY 2 HAV to pass. Likes to be up with the pace and held her own in a Group 3 latest after earlier handicap wins over this trip. Track and ground ideal, but needs to improve on last Goodwood showing. Advertisement CLASSIC 4 CLASSIC case. Thriving this summer with strong Ascot second and earlier Sandown win. That form looks rock solid, 7f ideal, handles ground, and has track form. Very likely to go close again. LOU LOU'S GIFT 3 GIFT horse. Lightly raced filly, shaped better than result in a messy Ascot Group 3 last time. Down in grade, strong pace helps. Still has more to come at 7f. Place shout JUMBY 3 Advertisement BY law. Game veteran. Big run in Newmarket handicap latest and has tumbled down the weights. This is his trip but long losing run remains a concern. No surprise to see him in the frame. WOLF OF BADENOCH 1 WOLF whistle. Well held at Ascot on turf return and cheekpieces stay on. Was useful as a two-year-old but may not have trained on. Others bring stronger current claims and more proven handicapping efforts. CONSOLIDATION 4 NO Con. Career-best win at Goodwood two back, unlucky latest when getting stuck in traffic. Goes well on quick ground and 7f suits. Still unexposed and could well bounce back with a cleaner trip. Advertisement OBELIX 3 LIX not licked. Had no chance at Wolver last time from a wide draw on the back of a good York win. He likes this trip on quick ground and isn't ruled out from 7lb higher. LEADMAN 4 GOOD Man. Won nicely here before getting no luck at Goodwood last time. He's best over 7f and his form ties in well with others here. His handicap mark is fair and he's high on the shortlist. COGITATE 2 Advertisement SMALL Cog. Not disgraced in hot Ascot handicap last time but he's not the easiest ride. Has come down weights but needs a step forward to score in this company. DOCUMENTING 1 WHAT'S up Doc? Almost a teenager but is still competitive with good efforts this season in big fields. His fifth behind Obelix at York reads well but there's no obvious reason why he'll turn that around. 3.35 MORE THUNDER never wins by very far but he keeps producing the goods like when winning the Bunbury Cup here by a short-head last time. Advertisement That build on his staying-on Wokingham second and two other smart wins on the Rowley course this season. He looks well up to Group 2 standard and proved his liking for this trip last time. King's Gamble came home strongly when just denied over six furlongs at Newbury last time. That was his first run in 11 months and moving back up in trip makes him the main danger. Witness Stand won the Lennox nicely at Goodwood and goes well here too. Advertisement He's in the mix while Spy Chief was far from disgraced in the July Cup and is likely to go hard on the front end. RIPON 2.45 NOVELLO LAD has won two of his past three and looks capable of another step forward. He saves his best for six furlongs on quick ground and his double-figure draw is another plus. Advertisement The handicapper must have been in a good mood when hiking him only 2lb for scoring at Pontefract last time. Paul Midgley does well at Ripon and can add to his tally. Wreck It Ryley saves his best for Ripon and was less than two lengths off the pace at Yarmouth last time. He looks a good price to make the frame. Ziggy's Ariel landed his last win here in April and is only 2lb higher today which makes him competitive. Advertisement Likely favourite Fortamour is a good performer at this level but he's yet to win on quick ground which has to be a worry for the nine-year-old. Dicko The Legend was good at York last time and is well drawn. 3.20 SECRET GUEST was third in this last season and is primed to go two better. Trainer Bryan Smart seems to have laid him out for the race and has given him a break since his close second at Thirsk in early July. Advertisement He's only 3lb higher than his last win and this trip and track are ideal. You want to be drawn high and he's handy in stall 11. Rock Opera comes from box 14 and was a close-up third in good company at York last time. That was over this trip on fast ground so he should be on the premises again. Grant Wood won the Silver Cup on this card last year and has clearly been aimed at this race. Advertisement He's a big price to make the frame despite a low draw. Similar comments apply to Intervention who ran well at Chepstow last time and looks on a fair mark. Prince Of Pillo is in stall 16 and likes this track. His trainer Richard Fahey won this race 12 months ago so he's a threat. NEWMARKET 2.05 Advertisement BINHAREER made a mockery of his opening turf handicap mark when strolling to victory at Ayr last month. His jockey had the luxury of dropping his whip but it made no difference as he hammered his rivals over this trip. The ground was softer that day but he doesn't need it on breeding and looks a typical William Haggas improver. He's up 8lb for that smooth success but that won't put the brakes on as there's a lot more to come. Archduke Ferdinand looks a fair each-way price with his rider's claim taking him below his last winning mark. Advertisement He is best over this trip and likes fast ground. Addison Grey made a promising start to his handicapping career when beaten less than a length at Chepstow nine days ago. This trip suits and there's more to come after just four runs. Silver Samurai ran better than fifth place suggests at Doncaster latest. That was over seven furlongs but he has enough pace to figure.

Sligo Rovers win at Dalymount to book FAI Cup quarter-final spot
FAI Cup, third round: Bohemians 0 Sligo Rovers 1 (Elding 53) Sam Sargeant saved a penalty before Owen Elding scored another cracking goal at Dalymount Park to leave Bohemians looking back in anger at their FAI Cup exit. Sligo Rovers have enjoyed some big cup days and nights at the home of Irish football. The Bit O' Red lifted their first FAI Cup at Dalymount on a rain-sodden afternoon in 1983. Their more recent back-to-back wins in 2010 and 2011 came after narrow semi-final victories over Bohemians at the Phibsborough venue when current manager John Russell was a player. READ MORE And they put their league struggles behind them to delight their 400-strong fans to book a spot in thus year's quarter-finals. Beaten finalists twice in the last four years, Bohs' quest for another Blue Riband will now stretch to 18 years. Sporting their light blue Oasis kit, given the weekend that's in it, Bohemians were put on the back foot early on as Sligo started with plenty of purpose. And as they struggled to get into the game, Bohs survived a let off on 14 minutes. A mistake by skipper Keith Buckley gifted the ball to Jad Hakiki who skipped into the clear in Bohs' half. But a poor touch allowed James Talbot to get to the ball first to avert the danger. Having scarcely been in the game, Bohs then conjured the first real sight of goal a minute later. Dayle Rooney put opposite winger Connor Parsons away on the left. Though the Englishman cleverly cut past Conor Reynolds, his drive was saved by Sergeant at the goalkeeper's right-hand post. Bohemians' Dawson Devoy in action against Sligo Rovers' Sean Stewart. Photograph: Ryan Byrne/Inpho Very much alive in the game now, Bohs troubled Sligo again minutes later from Rooney's corner, Douglas James-Taylor meeting the delivery to plant his header wide. Sligo midfielder Sebastian Quirk was likewise off target with a shot at the other end from Sligo's third corner of the night in an open contest. With Sligo back enjoying a spell of concerted pressure, Buckley had to clear Patrick McClean's header off the line from Ryan O'Kane's corner in the big chance of the half. Moments later winger O'Kane saw his ball into the area whizz past the far post. The end-to-end action continued as half-time approached, Parsons firing wide of the Sligo goal after skilfully working the opening before Sargeant tipped away a dangerous cross-shot from Rooney. Twice coming close to taking the lead just before the interval, Bohs blew a real chance to do so three minutes into the second half after McClean tripped Devoy to concede a penalty. Sargeant chose right to bat away Rooney's spot kick. James-Taylor was then guilty of blazing over the top after Ross Tierney's put the rebound back into the area. Six minutes later, Sligo punished poor defending to take the lead with a fine goal. The tenacity of Fitzgerald nicked the ball off Buckley to feed it on to Elding. The 19-year-old, who scored on his last visit to Dalymount in June, needed little invitation to take on the shot first time with his left foot to drill it past Talbot to the bottom corner for his 10th goal of the season. Bohs' Douglas James-Taylor reacts to a missed chance. Photograph: Ryan Byrne/Inpho With Bohs chasing the game now, Sergeant made his second telling save of the night to tip over a Rooney cross that had deflected goalwards off defender Ollie Denham. Try as they might, Bohs couldn't conjure an equaliser with Sargeant there again with another top stop to deny substitute Rhys Brennan on 90 minutes. Elsewhere, Cork City beat Waterford 2-1 in a Munster derby at Turner's Cross while Galway United eased past local non-league side Salthill Devon with a comfortable 4-0 win at Eamon Deacy Park. In a repeat of the 1999 final, Finn Harps beat Bray Wanderers 3-1 in Ballybofey, while in the other all-First Division clash, Kerry booked their spot in the last eight with a 2-0 win over Cobh Ramblers. BOHEMIANS: Talbot; Morahan, Byrne, Kavanagh (Smith, 54), Flores; Buckley (McDonnell, 67), Devoy; Rooney (Brennan, 67), Tierney, Parsons; James-Taylor (Whelan, 74). SLIGO ROVERS: Sargeant; Reynolds (Agbaje, 51), Denham, McClean, Stewart; Harkin, Quirk; O'Kane (Patton, 81), Hakiki (Manning, 81), Fitzgerald; Elding. Referee: Kevin O'Sullivan (Cork). Attendance: 4,246.

€500,000 raised to help West Cork girl following farming accident
Féile O'Sullivan, the young West Cork girl who had a devastating accident on a farm last month, is now speaking, eating, and re-learning skills like writing as her treatment continues. The sports-mad 13-year-old girl had another operation on Thursday at Crumlin Hospital after needing a double amputation following the tragic incident in early July. Donations to help the family reached more than €508,000 by Friday, from Cork, across Ireland, and as far as Montana in the US. An adapted car has also been arranged for the family through the All-Ireland GAA Golf Classic charity. Cormac McMahon, who is secretary of Garnish GAA club, of which Féile and her mother Maureen are members, said the club are in regular contact with the family. He said: 'The last update I had was she was doing well, all things considered. 'She is now speaking and eating, and even had some friends in to visit, which is nice. She understand what's happened to her, and accepts what happened to her, but she is being really positive about it.' Mr McMahon explained her long-term goal is to get back into school by the end of the school year. It's going to be a tough road for her. She had another major surgery on Thursday "She's not got full sensation back into her hands yet, so she's starting to re-learn how to write her name. It's known she had one leg completely amputated and the other leg partially amputated, and there were other injuries as well.' She was treated locally by first responders on the day of the accident six weeks ago, and flown by air ambulance to Cork University Hospital. One week later, she was transferred to Dublin. Community support Earlier this week, Féile spoke by video to her friends taking part in the summer Cúl Camp with the club, an emotional milestone for her and them. This club is one of many sports and community groups in Allihies who came together to fundraise under the banner of Stand 4 Féile. The young girl and her mother were active in GAA, soccer, rugby, horse riding, and more. The fact her accident happened on a farm has brought support from many agricultural organisations, such as Macra na Feirme, which understands the daily risks farmers face. Bantry Blues player and teacher Sean O' Leary has taught Féile. 'I can't speak highly enough of her,' he said. 'She's a very positive young woman and we wish her all the best.' He is one of many GAA players posting videos online calling on people to support the child and her family, including former Cork stars Valerie Mulcahy and Áine Terry O' Sullivan. Mr McMahon said: 'It's been a nice boost to see this for Feile as well and her mum. They're up in Crumlin looking at this online, and seeing all the goodwill messages.' Independent councillor Finbarr Harrington said the family are now also linked into the All-Ireland GAA Golf Classic charity. This important link will see a modified Ford Transit Connect with wheelchair accessibility sponsored by the charity. 'It's a great boost to Féile's family,' he said, adding: 'The value of the vehicle is around €70,000 and can be upgraded every few years at minimum cost.' The golf charity's next team event takes place in October in Killarney. It is just one of the many ways campaigners can help in the coming years. Medical expenses Mr McMahon said: 'The money will be put into trust for Féile in some form." It will cover medical expenses, work on their house, and supporting Maureen, a teacher, in caring for Feile. Helping hands have reached out from as far away as Butte, Montana, donating a beautiful hand-made quilt for raffle by Allihies Men's Shed. Butte and Allihies share a long history following emigration of copper miners from West Cork in the late 1800s. Quilt-maker Claire Thornburgh said: 'Who could be unmoved by Féile's story, particularly when our cousins and friends in her community are hurting for her as well?' She described the beautiful design as 'my tribute to Butte, Montana's Irish heritage". On August 24, vintage farming equipment not seen in the region for at least 60 years will tackle a field of oats for the fundraising campaign. The crop has been donated by the farmer and will be auctioned at Kenmare Mart in Kerry. Meanwhile, the list of fundraising sporting events grows by the day. On Monday, Cork City soccer club will donate all proceeds from their Corky Camp for children in Castletownbere. Beara United urged families to sign up, saying: 'Fair play to Cork City FC doing their bit to help out our Fèile.' Young footballers at Rosscarbery Ladies Football Club raised €993 with a tuck shop during the U12 Munster Club clubs have run cake sales and raffles with a growing stream of supportive videos online. The next few weeks will see a walk organised by Beara Athletic Club and the Eyeries Family Festival, a 12-hour sea swim relay, and a cycle from Dublin to Allihies.
