I absolutely loath the golden point. I think more than any other sport a draw shows what a genuinely equal contest has just taken place. So if ever both teams deserved some reward then a RL draw is it.

But no so desperate are we for a gimmick we give up one of the finest parts of our game, namely it’s tendency to always produce a winner! Even more insulting we then see a false result usually created from an unholy scramble to score a drop goal, which imo is an auxiliary element of the game. I don’t mind it being a match winner in the last minute of normal time but to see it used as a further time decider, no.

There is no jeopardy despite the efforts of Sky to suggest there is. Whoever gets within range first probably wins and against a tired defence that’s often whoever receives the kick off.

Maybe it’s just me and I assume you but I agree, what the hells wrong with a draw, it seems fair reward to all imho.
no its not only you I even think the cup games should be replayed if its a draw after extra time

Absolutely Agree.
I know we don't like talking about the 2nd rate version of our great sport :CURTAIN: but they have got it right......
There was a cracking 31-31 draw, with a team coming back from 15-31 down...... :CLAP:
A golden point would have ruined it!! :evil:

Issac Luke has not got a nrl contract yet - he would do a job for us so passionate



I would def agree...Luke and Benji directed the Moari's all round the park while they were on the field together, exactly the type of thing we need...pity we had neither the quota spots nor the cash to afford both for this season before Benji signed for Souths...never mind as a season on the bench for them will keep him fresh enough for a season with us n 2022

I must be missing something with this game, I thought it was rubbish, a lot of players looked well out of shape, took the game 40 minutes to get going, IA goal line defence looked good but Maoris were throwing nothing at them for the first 40, both looked flat and I thought the game was relatively dull from start to finish.
