The fixture was marred by a melee at half time

There will be no further suspensions handed out in the wake of the clash between Kerry and Donegal.

It's reported that the CCCC have ruled that all incidents were dealt with by referee Sean Hurson on the field. It means, Donegal boss Jim McGuinness and Kerry forward David Clifford will avoid punishment over separate incidents seen TV coverage.

However, both counties are expected to be fined over the half-time melee. Having claimed the Connacht title with a win over Galway, Rocommon seen their campaign in the All-Ireland series begin with a loss to Tyrone on Sunday last in King & Moffatt Dr. Hyde Park.
