Michael Duignan has hit out at the GAA and inter-county managers over players training with their counties during the current club window.
The Offaly GAA chairman said he is "disillusioned" with inter-county managers for "putting pressure" on players to train and criticised the GAA for not bringing in "stricter sanctions".
GAA president John Horan said last week: "We're not intending to (punish them). We'd like people to call them out but we're not actually intending to impose any penalties."
Speaking on the matter, Duignan told Newstalk's Off The Ball: "We are just coming out of an unprecedented time of our lives, and we can't talk out of both sides of our mouth here.
"If community is going to be first and club is going to be first, it would have been easier to bring back county first, from a logistical point of view. The decision was made to go back with their clubs because every player is a club player.
"I'm disillusioned with the direction from inter-county managers, first of all for putting pressure on their players to getting back training because players will do whatever they are asked to do.
"I am starting with inter-county managers, then county boards for allowing it to happen. I'm also disillusioned with Croke Park for not coming up with stricter sanctions and the players themselves and the GPA in particular for not standing up and saying 'we're not accepting this'.
"It is hypocrisy, it is dishonest. What sort of message are we sending to young men, who are supposed to be leaders of their community, between 22 and 25 years of age?"
