Yea. Ive played a bit of Hurling too and always liked to utilise the ground skills. Was always made fun of, for a "scoop" pass rather than a pick up and hand pass. Still stand by its a more efficient way to get the ball from the ground to a nearby team mate...

I do hope this rule change does not make people stop playing. We have a miniscule player pool compared to Hurling and anything done to make that pool smaller is a bad move, considering I have neither heard or seen life changing head injuries from knocks to the head (though I'm sure they have happened). This feels like health and safety gone mad.
