Quote Grimmy="Grimmy"Yeah I'd sooner go for extra time. Maybe the bbc can't show it if it overruns? They have regional news and celebrity pointless to think about afterall.'"
The golden point extra time concept was only introduced to prevent fixture backlogs in earlier rounds and while it is good for avoiding the need for a replay and preventing fixture pile-ups it is an abysmal spectacle as the game always degenerates into a succession of one man drives followed by a drop goal attempt until one finally goes over.
Golden try would be a better system where a team had to score a try to win the game but with golden point I am happier to see a replay take place than such an anti-climactic finish.
Incidentally should there be a replay that then finishes in a draw as well (unlikely though that is) then that game would be decided by golden point to avoid the need for successive replays.
