Burns: We must punish foul play

PLAYING rules committee member Jarlath Burns has admitted something has to be done to stop making fouling profitable in Gaelic football.

Although the parameters of the committee are not yet set, the former Armagh captain believes Donegal’s style in Sunday’s All-Ireland semi-final highlighted the issues facing the game.

“Changing the square ball or bringing in the mark is one thing but to change the flow of the game would require radical surgery and three or four attempts at it,” said the Armagh Central Council delegate.
