The four points for a goal rule change is set to be scrapped as the Football Review Committee continue to prepare its draft report for Gaelic football’s new rule enhancements.

Last weekend the FRC’s seven-core enhancements were trialled in Croke Park for the interprovincial series. Players and managers provided extensive feedback and the Jim Gavin-chaired committee are set to make several changes.
