The 2019 National Football League, known for sponsorship reasons as the Allianz National Football League, was the 88th staging of the National Football League (NFL), an annual Gaelic football tournament for Gaelic Athletic Association county teams. Thirty-one county teams from the island of Ireland, plus London, competed; Kilkenny do not participate.

The GAA announced a new broadcast agreement on 10 January 2019 that runs from 2019 until 2022. Eir Sport and RTÉ provide live TV coverage of the league on Saturday nights. TG4 broadcast Sunday afternoon games. The highlights programmes are RTÉ2's League Sunday on Sunday evenings, TG4's GAA 2019 on Monday evenings and Eir Sport's Allianz Leagues Reloaded on Wednesday evenings.[1][2]

Mayo were the winners, defeating Kerry in the final.[3]

Experimental Rules

On 24 November 2018 the GAA Central Council approved five experimental changes to the football playing rules which were amended slightly and trialled in the 2018–19 early season competitions organised by the provincial councils (FBD League, O'Byrne Cup, McGrath Cup and McKenna Cup).[4]

The rules trialled were[5] –

  1. The maximum number of consecutive handpasses allowed is three. The Gaelic Players Association (GPA) were strongly against this restriction.[6]
  2. A sideline free must be kicked forward except when it is inside the opposing team's 20 metre line.
  3. An advanced mark (sometimes also referred to as an offensive mark or attacking mark) may be taken where the ball is kicked in the area outside the opposing team's 45 metre line, travels more than 20 metres, and is caught cleanly without touching the ground in the area inside the opposing team's 45 metre line by an attacker or a defender. Up to fifteen seconds are allowed for the free resulting from the mark to be taken.
  4. Ten minutes in a sin bin without replacement is imposed on a player who commits a black card offence. The offending player can re-enter the game or be substituted after the ten minutes have elapsed.
  5. Kickouts must be taken from the 20 metre line but are not required to travel beyond the 45 metre line.

The effectiveness of the new rules was reviewed by Central Council on 19 January 2019. They voted 25-23 to not continue with the three handpass rule. The remaining four experimental rules continued to be trialled in the 2019 National Football League which began on 26 January 2019.

GAA rules only allow changes to the playing rules in years divisible by five, meaning that the experimental rules could be approved by Congress 2020 for implementation in the 2020 Championship at the earliest.[7]

Competition format

League structure

The 2019 National Football League consists of four divisions of eight teams. Each team plays every other team in its division once, usually four home and three away or three home and four away. Two points are awarded for a win and one point for a draw.

Teams by Province and Division
Province Division 1 Division 2 Division 3 Division 4 Total
Connacht 3 0 1 1 5
Leinster 1 2 6 2 11
Munster 1 3 0 2 6
Ulster 3 3 1 2 9
Britain 0 0 0 1 1
Total 8 8 8 8 32

Tie-breaker

If only two teams are level on league points -

  • The team that won the head-to-head match is ranked first
  • If this game was a draw, score difference (total scored minus total conceded in all games) is used to rank the teams
  • If score difference is identical, total scored is used to rank the teams
  • If still identical, a play-off is required

If three or more teams are level on league points, score difference is used to rank the teams.
