Brilliant Football Rules!

(Oldest Posts First)

What a year we've all enjoyed since the league started at the end of last January. The football rules have been absolutely fantastic! The club championships were absolutely brilliant!
The All Ireland club final last Sunday was the icing on the cake. The FRC emphatically delivered. Football at all levels is a joy to play and watch again! Different approaches and tactics. There are many ways to skin a cat and all teams are finding the best approach that suits them.

At least the game is watchable again!

New rules have helped but there were plenty of good games before the change and the constant hand passing by teams holding possession is as bad as ever and number of hand passing seems to have escalated even further

The one criticism of the FRC was ignoring the handball epidemic.
