Danielle O’Leary believes ladies football did not require radical surgery unlike the men’s game but the Kerry All-Ireland winner is glad the sport is receiving a facelift.

Twelve rules will be trialled in this year’s Lidl Ladies Football League. Six come from the men’s game: the kick-out mark, three players up at all times, the two-point arc, solo and go, and stricter sanctions for delaying play and dissent.
