Paul Flynn is hoping his former Dublin manager Jim Gavin and the rest of the new Football Review Committee don’t take a scalpel to the Gaelic football playing rules.
Speaking on RTÉ's Allianz League Sunday, the six-time All-Ireland SFC winner suggested that only marginal changes are needed to make the game easier on the eye.
“Everyone has a passion for it and such an opinion on this; all they want is the best outcome for the game. I don’t think we need a wholesome amount of changes; we need little tweaks. We have a fantastic group assembled; no stone will be left unturned,” he said.
“The key thing for me is that they stay together as a group and over a long period of time, even if it's only the three years we have Jarlath [Burns] sitting as president, that we have people monitoring these rules, and it shouldn’t be the case that we have to wait every five years for a rule change if there's a tweak needed even just every couple of years rather than going for wholesome changes little tweaks now and then so we can improve our game.”
