This is great news .. The game of Gaelic football has had a tough time of late with some awful matches being played out and Pat Spillane famously calling some of the Northern teams ‘puke football’.
Well this new committe are looking to make three big changes, that’s according to The Irish Examiner
-
Awarding two points for long-range scores
-
Requiring that three players from both teams remain in each half at all times
-
A clock/hooter to end all games
This committee will be led by former Dublin manger Jim Gavin along with others ..
We welcome these changes, when Gaelic football is played well it’s a good game to watch. The GAA just have to change the rules to go with the times, just like the rugby are constantly changing the laws of their game.
