The GAA's Central Competitions Control Committee have decided that Cork's footballers and hurlers should forfeit the games they failed to play during the recent players’ strike.
That means the footballers of Meath and Dublin and the hurlers of Kilkenny and Waterford will pick up two points each. Cork have also been fined €400 per game unfulfilled.
The Cats and the Deise were willing to reschedule the Allianz NHL games, but Meath football boss Colm Coyle said his side would not play Cork as the Royals had already made themselves available to play the Rebels on two occasions.
The Dublin County Board were also upset at how their postponed NFL Division 2 game with Cork was handled in the lead-up to last Saturday.
The remaining games in the National Leagues will take place as scheduled.
