Derry manager Paddy Tally criticizes Gaelic football's new rule allowing goalkeepers to advance into the opposition half, calling it 'killing the game' and leading to 12v11 situations. Tally also expresses dissatisfaction with the 50-meter advancement rule, deeming it too harsh for minor infractions.
Derry boss Paddy Tally says Gaelic football's new rule for goalkeepers is "killing the game" after his side fell to Tyrone in Saturday's Division One encounter at Healy Park.
This was used to great effect by Tyrone on Saturday when keeper Niall Morgan's pass to Ciaran Daly led to Peter Teague's second-half goal as the Red Hands won 2-13 to 1-9. "You wanted one-to-one battles and there were periods in that game today when the ball was just going back and forth across the field for two, three minutes at a time.
"It was always there, the goalkeeper could always come out. Last year it was 15 versus 14, so it's exactly the same thing only there's less numbers up there," said O'Rourke, who had been a member of the FRC before stepping down to focus on his duties with Tyrone.
