Quite possibly one of the worst ideas I've seen on here, and I've seen a few bad ones.

Innovations like ensuring right from the off that the game is an uneven contest?
No, I'll stick with draws thanks.

I'm still struggling with drawing comparisons between himself and Pankhurst, King and Jesus.

A lot of other people have had ideas which at the time were considered 'stupid'. These ideas are still considered 'stupid'. This is because they are 'stupid' ideas.

This is one to add to that pile, and not to the 'saviour of mankind' one.

As for the comment about lots of the most sucessful sports using an equivelent.. Lets look at soccer. Undoubtedly the most sucessful sport in the world. This doesn't use it. Neither do most other sports. The only ones I can think of without having to do any research are American sports, but a draw isn't a part of their national psyche. It is an established part of UK sport.

Still a stupid idea
I love a well fought draw..

Definitely time for golden point extra time in the event of a draw.

Start half a point up? Just coach the team to play for a nil-nil and you win every home game. Guaranteed play-offs without scoring a try

I'd come on here and say you don't know the history of a "TRY at goal"

If two teams slog it out and end up with a draw,fair result.Where is the problem in that?
Think some folk come up with an idea just for the sake of it.

Why,what is wrong with two teams getting a point each? Its a LEAGUE game.
If you come second in the table by 1 point,then it has a bearing on the league
standings.

So, in essence, because the aussies and americans don't like draws we should get rid of them?

Sounds good to me as long as it's the same for both teams.

If the team at home get's 4 and a half tackles, then I reckon that would be a silly idea.

How about golden try?

At times it really is a wonder why anyone actually requires a game to be played on a field.

Why not bother, give all the home teams half a point and at the end of the season all have equal points, so decide the grand finalists on who has the prettiest seats and the best coloured shirt or something as arbitary.

Quite how you seperate them in a neutral venue is a challenge, but the people on here can usually come up with something.

I have a theory. Those that aren't bothered about draws will usually be happy to split an orange and share it with their mate. Those that don't like draws will peel it in their pocket and fake a cough for each segment they sneak down their gullet.

Yes, that is the point, and that's exactly why it's a draw! They've played well enough not to lose but not well enough to win. Both the league point and the "feeling" reflect this perfectly. Trying to artificially create a win out of what is, by any other definition, a draw is a bad idea, imo, and wouldn't change the essential result which is that neither team played well enough to win. In fact, all you're effectively proposing is to simply rename draws as home wins.
