A new dawn or a false one? Last weekend’s interprovincial football series at Croke Park marked an important juncture for the GAA and Gaelic football – stick to what it knows or take a tenative step towards something new.

After months of work, the Football Review Committee (FRC) threw open the doors of Croke Park to show what the new game could look like and it used the four-game series as a showcase for its proposed rule changes.

The proposals on show include the committee’s ‘7 Core Enhancements’ as well as new rules surrounding tactical and aggressive fouls, dissent, and officiating, all aimed at making Gaelic football “a more exciting and dynamic playing and spectator experience”.
