Quote: ricardo07 "Having seen it for the first time yesterday, I must admit that it seemed an anticlimax to the game.
Both sides seemed to be clueless about how to score other than by a drop goal. The less said about
those attempts the better.
Personally, I would have no issue with specific periods of extra time, played out in periods of 10 minutes
if it avoided what I saw yesterday.
It put RL in a very poor light with nobody at Wakefield capable of getting the ball off the ground and poor directional and length in Castleford's case.
With Castleford having experienced it before, against Halifax, I would welcome your views.
Good luck in the next round from a Wakefield fanatic.'"
I respect your opinion. However, it's perhaps a 'marmite' type of thing. Love it or loath it.
I went to the game and during the extra time, I was stressed as hell, but strangely enough loving it at the same time. A few friends, who are non rugby followers, watched it on the tv because they knew we were at the game and were absolutely 'drawn in' by the tension which the sudden death aspect brings.
So for me, yes, I like it!
