Haven't they been used by Russian teams in the Challenge Cup?

I look forward to the outrage the first time a kick that is going dead is stopped by single upright on the deadball line that's part and parcel of that post design

The post is a couple of metres back from the dead ball line in that sport, the bend in the upright puts the crossbar directly over the end line in the end-zone.

No no no, we're Americanised enough already with club names, badges, mascots etc. Nowt wrong with the posts, they've always been there and should always be there IMO.

I remember reading a report about the New Hunslet posts. I think it was Workington who 'scored' 4 tries only to discover that the post was on the dead ball line and therefore they were disallowed. Hunslet also the try scoring area marked with criss cross lines.

Given the sheer amount of horrific injuries suffered on a weekly basis by RL players because of the shape and positioning of the posts, we should change them immediately.

Jesus H.

American football changed to the deadball posts with the rise in prominense of the pass for a td that's it, it obstructed scoring. Rl doesn't have this problem as the post is the goaline

How about instead of placing the ball on the ground behind the try line, lets award a try when a player in possession of the ball simply crosses the try line?

Imagine the Premier league when a goalkeeper disappears down a hole in the middle of his goal!!!

Thats very true and they also had a lot of players getting injured running into the post ironically.

Couldn't we have them held in place by powerful magnetic fields so that the posts wouldn't need to have legs and just be a 'U' Shape?

Anyone with a pacemaker behind the sticks would be in risk and God forbid someone with a 'Prince Albert' stands behind the goal.
