Gaelic Football - Rules & Regulations discussion/clarification

[bennydorano]

Was going to post b4 this started that Connacht & Ulster will win easy, Leinster & Munster never got excited about the Railway Cup.

It's not a great advertisement to date, Leinster to blame for half assing it.

[Tubberman]

So far it's obvious Connacht foitball better than Leinster.
But sure we knew that already.
Good goal by that big rhubarb lad.

And the point at the end was even better!

I would have thought a rule where you limit  the  number of consecutive  hand passes to two or three , and not allow  kicking backwards  would have been easier to police than  this 3 in each  half and basketball zonal  scores

If you've used up your 2/3 hand passes,  you have  to kick it forward. That encourages  more attacking play

How many ref's look after basketball? Small court and well lined out, now take yourself to some bog of a pitch after a few days of rain, lines washed away and you're there on your tod

Whats your point, MR2?

It's impossible to managed for 99% of our games. The 1% and armchair viewers who complain might think it's workable and watching this Leinster obviously not liking it either

Be impossible to referee at club level and the scoring is stupid, as I thought will make hammerings worse

[Rossfan]

Get rid of arc, 2 pointers and leave the goal at 3.

It's interesting. Fair play to everyone for trying to make a change. I'm all in favour of three up, but I'm still counting twenty players behind the ball.  There's plenty of kicking in going on, but in a proper game with intensity I can't see it being anywhere near as free flowing. Don't think I'd ever get used to two point scores. It's an interesting experiment.

Nearly sure there  wasn't 3 in  the one half for one of AOS's points

Third man to cross the  line gets an electric shock should  sort it

Can you imagine the roaring and shouting at a club game when the ref is looking the other way and somebody puts a toenail over the line.

[GTP]

The 3 up rule is hard to judge from TV you can't tell if teams sticking to it. At least supporters can alternate a new shout with the traditional HOW LONG

[SouthOfThe Bann]

What was the issue with that Munster kickout that led to the throw up?

[thewobbler]

Ball didn't get past the D before being engaged

[Hoof Hearted]

Conatys shot looked well over there

[GTP]

1 very 1 at throw in looks OK but 2nd player should be on the pitch at 13m

[Armagh18]

Conatys shot looked well over there

Don't like that rule. Imagine a junior b keeper trying to kick into a gale
