To Alleviate Referee Problems Could We Leave The Two Pointers To County Games Only

I see Referees in different Counties come under pressure as regards to where the two point effort was hit from.
'Absolute disgrace' as two wrong two-point calls made in dying minutes of GAA county final The above is the heading from a Newpsper commenting on a Game in Fermanagh .

This happened in the Kerry Junior A Championship as well. A team scored a two point free but were only awarded a point. The other team then scored a point to equalise and the game ended in a draw. The referee's report corrected that a 2 pointer had been scored. The team declared to have lost the game would have gone chasing a two pointer instead of a point. They played under protest at the weekend.
