I know what'd be awesome! If the try is scored after a kick and the try scorer kicks the conversion with a blindfold on whilst reciting the opening lines of Twelfth-Night, then a klaxon goes off and a 3 person panel of Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole and somebody no-one really knows are lowered on to the pitch by cranes. They then decide which team wins.

This apart from Cheryl Cole has to be naked

Rugby League World Cup:



What about you can't kick on the 6th....?
This would mean an headache for the Ref's, but would mean more handling skills ...

I don't see the point in changing anything.
Also what if someone sees space out wide if the winger has come in on say the third tackle and they kick it into the space with the team scoring from the clever kick? Surely would be worth 4 points in the eyes of people who think kick on the last only worth three?

That'd be fun when Alibert's ref, you never know which tackle's going to be the 6th icon_biggrin.gif

Why not have 6 tackles, you can kick whenever you feel like it. you can score from a kick as much as you want???....

Just leave it how it is.

Kicking is an innaugral part of Rugby League. It was great watching Broughys kicking game. If Murphy was being marked the scores wouldnt of happened. If defenders can jump higher than attackers for the high ball it wont happen.

Thats coming from a Cas fan whos team gets hammered with high kicks every game.

I like the simple idea that if you score from a kick you don't get to convert the try.

So there is a kick to the corner, on the fifth, and, as often someone palms it backwards and it is quickly picked up by someone else and scored from. Does he get a conversion? What about two passes?

Quote: Chris Dalton "So there is a kick to the corner, on the fifth, and, as often someone palms it backwards and it is quickly picked up by someone else and scored from. Does he get a conversion? What about two passes?'"

Also what about the try Leeds scored against Catalans a few years ago? That involved a kick. Or when Thomas Bosc chipped over the defence twice to score? Or when Tomkins did likewise? Why is that piece of skill only allowed 4 points yet someone barging over from dummy half or simply picking up a dropped ball is allowed 6?
There are boring tries from kicks but there are also boring tries from running or passing. If teams can't defend one aspect of the game then it's the other teams right to exploit that weakness.

We could increase the kicking skill options and then start to have lineouts!

Mummy duck is now thoroughly depressed. SHE was the one that was famous for losing five in a row........until the 2011 GF!!!!!:



Kick in the air on the fifth. Palmed back by the winger, goes through 2/3 pairs of hands before the try is scored. is that a "try from a kick" or are we just talking about "catch and flop" tries?.....................or where inbetween do we draw the line?

Getting three-points for kick tries is probably a bit too blunt a measure - you get some great tries from kicks.

I'd like to trial the consequences of extending the area where a catch on the full results in a 20m restart to the 10m line (further out could lead to negative consequences in other situations). This could encourage whole teams to improve their contesting and catching skills. We'd probably see a reduction in some of the punt and pray efforts, while planned high kicks - those more likely to result in a try - would carry on, along with more grubber kicks.

And I'd throw in not restarting the tackle count following a charge-down, for good measure, because I've supported that for ages.

This is Rugby League - how can there possibly be too many tries scored, regardless of how they are scored - if ya dont like seeing lots of tries go and watch that other code of Rugby Football !!

just let the teams decide how they want to play.
Why is a kick and catch any less skillful or worthy of a try than a pass and catch?
