      I have always been a fan of the Ace Man's idea to put a third upright right in the middle of the left and right uprights. If the kicker hits the middle upright, the FG is worth 4 instead of 3.

        You can't throw the ball in front of the LOS in flag football.

          LA, what about narrowing the goal posts and making them a rectangle? The kick has to pass through the rectangle.

            Aussie rules dont score with drop kicks, that's rugby

            Speaking of rugby, they should make PAT's worth 2 points but you have to kick it on a line straight back from where the ball crossed the goal line for the TD.
