Ruined I tell thee!

It'll be starting to become as unwatchable as the majority of senior club championship games and that's saying something!

The two point score also takes away from the high ball into the full forward line which everyone loves - which is why we got the forward mark. The fact no trial games have been played with 3,2 and 1 as the scoring system should lead to concern but won't. The enhancements are a mess and anyone predicting there outcome is guessing.

To Spillane and the rest claiming that the big scores put up i. The trial games were great- do they really think games will be like that come next year when games actually mean something?

I think the two point score will result in much more high balls going into the full forward line than we have seen in recent years.
They'll not be deliberate passes, but rather short 2 pointers - think of all the goals in the latter stages of the championship this year.

Exactly. Look at the 2016 railway cup scores. Not exactly low scoring yet people were still complaining about the football played that year I'd say

Spillane should just retire.

Two pointers will result in some amount of pop shots and higher wide count in matches and how will that enhance the game?

Probably better looking at lads taking shots than 75 sideways and backwards hand passes.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.
