This should clear up the debate with you mathematicians!!

Hard enough getting the 13 metre arc in where you’re tying a tape to a lining machine and pulling tight to follow the arc around. It will be a different story with keeping a 40 metre tape tight!!!

A load of aul shite if you ask me!
Just get a 40m protractor. You could use as it roof over the stand when not in use.

Every club will need to hire a Maths professor to ensure it’s all done right.

I can just picture a six foot compass and a half a dozen people carrying a big protractor onto the field to measure these arcs.
I know we joke but it’s just another headache for clubs that the GAA hasn’t taken into consideration.

The rules will probably look good in Croker with umpires and linesmen on a carpet of a field, but a junior game on the side of a mountain somewhere on a wet friday in March with dodgy lines drawn and one ref trying to keep on top of it all? Madness

Marc O'Sé talks about team prospects under the new rules
https://extra.ie/2024/12/29/sport/gaa/football-2025-teams-better-placed

he does not expect Armagh to win, largely owing to the difficulty of winning a second, but also because they Armagh had devised a system where no man was left alone in defence and the new rules will affect that strategy. He does rate Donegal and Tyrone o_O, as he thinks that McGuinness is a good man to come up with a strategy to use the new rules.
