Among the new rules are 4 points for a goal and 2 points for a score kicked outside a 40 metre arc.

Goalkeepers can only receive a pass inside the large rectangle or beyond the half way line.

Three players must remain in the opposing half at all times, and an advanced mark must be kicked from outside the 45 metre line into the 20 metre section of the pitch.

These proposed rule changes will be the subject of a special congress at the end of November.
