| It seems 50% of teams in our league have played 5 and won 3 matches. Without the bonus point system, which isn't deemed good enough for Super League, we'd be 3rd now.

| The one thing it does is make the losing team fight to the end if there is a sniff of the bonus point but what I don't like is, as you say ,is it gives a false reading of the league table sometimes as you can have 2 teams were one wins 3 out of 5 the other wins 2 from 5 but also gets 3 bonus and could also have a better points difference putting them above the other which for me is wrong

| I'm not bothered about the bonus point. It seems to make losing team try harder whiich in my view is a good thing.
Generally, the good teams are at the top of the table and bad ones are at the bottom and the bonus point makes no real difference.

| Work the table out at the end of the season and you'll see it makes little difference if any. You might get the odd team being a place higher than they would but that's usually because they lost a lot of close matches. I think it would be fairer to have 4 points up for grabs. If you win by more than 12 you get 4 points, if you win by 12 or less you get 3 points with the other point going to the losing team.

| I think it a good system, and 1 reason why our league is so condensed.
Halifax losing 32-6 and went hell for leather for a BP in the end. Its how it should be.
In SL, Fax would have lost 50-6 as it would not make one iota.
It what makes a competative league. Swinton deserved their point on Sunday thats for sure.
I think we can go one further and have winning and losing BP like RU. That way, we could have a try fest, but maybe the 12 could be cut to 6.
