I like it and plus we won’t have to wait for Sean Long taking ages to kick the ball in the final minutes of a game..

The only good thing about kicks is one used in play like drop goals, forty twenties along with kicks in play!

It's worth discussion, although I'm not in favour of it.

It could be the basis of a better way of deciding playoff/cup games after extra time, rather than sudden death overtime - in a five goes each penalty shootout type of format.

my only concern is how much of an impact will this have on the team who have had the try scored against them

Just a y gimmick if you ask me – if it aint broke don’t try and fix it.

When are these inbred, braindead morons realise that we have a fantastic product as it is. It’s taken over 100 years of evolution to get it to this point but it’s there now. No need to change it.

Change for changes sake.

After this "idea" how about a multiball system? you know score 2 tries on the bounce or something and the ball boys/girls lob on a few more rugby balls, you know, to liven it up a bit?


No?



Balls to you then i'll try Rugby Yawnion.


TAXI!!!

Given that no kicks will be allowed and you only have one tackle, I wouldn't expect to see too many double tries scored.

It’s an ill-conceived idea by deluded pillocks who think that they know what the games real fans want to see.

How about this for an idea:

When a team scores they can forfeit the conversion attempt in exchange for a ‘time-bomb’ ball.

This is where they get one last play with a special exploding ball – the kicker is they don’t know exactly how long they’ve got before it goes off. Anything between 2 minutes and 20 seconds. If you get caught in possession when the ball explodes your likely to lose your arms so I can be a bit of a gamble but would make for a much more exciting game to watch.

It's akin to American Football where sides can opt go for 2 points after a touchdown by passing or running the ball into the end zone rather than 1 for a kick.
Also the idea of changing players is like AF with offensive & defensive teams.
Don't dismiss the idea out of hand, if it's the last play of the game & one side is 3 or 4 points behind just think of the extra excitement this would generate?
I believe its worthy of a proper debate, likewise the 2/4 referee proposal.

sounds like it could be worrth the debate, can't see many people going for it apart from when its a touchline conversion / really windy / no kicker on the field.

As for the interchanges before it, thats far too much American Football and would slow the came, so a bit no!

Bad idea. Some games one team would only touch the ball to kick off.

What happens should a defending player intercept the ball? I like new ideas, and it's fun to try them, but my first reactions to this one are not positive.

I think it means that on the next set instead of getting 6 tackles you get 7, like when receiving the ball from a knock on
