The big question here is which era of Genesis? Peter Gabriel or Phil Collins?
Can NRL please stop coming up with endless names for rounds and 'respect' us fans by focusing on footy?
This sort of nonsense annoys me. Rugby isn’t just about tries. It’s about scoring goals. And if the defence didn’t infinge there wouldn’t be the opportunity for penalties. In Aussie rules, you don’t get different scores for a goal depending on whether it was general play or a free kick. If you want the game to be only about running and try scoring, stick to League or touch rugby.
And what’s with the hating on drop goals? I love watching a skillful kicker slot one under pressure from a charging backline.
In my mind, all goals should be worth the same. I would increase a conversion to 3 points in line with penalties and field goals. I would actually argue for 4 point tries and 3 point conversions to keep the overall converted try at 7, but I understand that wouldnm’t be palatable to mos. tLeaving tries at 5 and increasing the conversion to 3 would satisfy both camps – making tries (potentially) more valuable while preserving the benefit of other goal kicking.
Rugby's penalty fixation is unfair on the sport
As a Foundation Rebels member, I hope they survive. But I can’t see myself driving to Tarniet to watch them.
