See also: Gaelic football, Laws of Australian football, and Comparison of Australian rules football and Gaelic football Field dimensions The rules are designed to provide a compromise between those of the two codes, with Gaelic football players being advantaged by the use of a round ball and a rectangular field (Australian rules uses an oval ball and field), while the Australian rules football players benefit from the opportunity to tackle between the shoulders and thighs, something banned in Gaelic football. The game also introduces the concept of the mark, from Australian rules football, with a free kick awarded for any ball caught from a kick of over 15 metres.[2] A player must bounce, solo or touch the ball on the ground once every 10 metres or six steps.[2] A maximum of two bounces per possession are allowed, while players can solo the ball as often as they wish on a possession.[2] Unlike in Gaelic football, the ball may be lifted directly off the ground, without putting a foot underneath it first.[2] Players however cannot scoop the ball off the ground to a team-mate, nor pick up the ball if they are on their knees or on the ground.[2] If a foul is committed, a free kick will be awarded, referees can give the fouled player advantage to play on at their discretion. Scoring in international rules football The game uses two large posts and two small posts, as in Australian rules, and a crossbar and goal net as in Gaelic football. Points are scored as follows: In the goal net (): 6 points, umpire waves green flag and raises both index fingers.[2] Over the crossbar and between the two large posts (an over): 3 points, umpire waves red flag and raises one arm above his head.
