Rather than giving an extra point for a free kick off the ground, why not have a system similar to basketball where an extra point is given for a score outside say 40 metres. Run an arc from sideline to sideline and you would have a 2 point line similar to the 3 point line in basketball. I also like the notion of "team fouls". 7 team fouls per half and anything after that allows the other team a 35 metre free. It would definitely discourage tactical fouling.
