Draw?

[joebob]

@Bula exactly. I think if scores are level late in the game, both teams might be overly cautious knowing the draw is enough.

So it's golden point and you are 30 out on the last. Do you risk the seven tackle set or roll a kick to the goal line knowing a draw is good enough?

Surely if it went to GP, both teams would go into their shell. Why risk a play that could cost you your season.

In saying that though, it would be great to kick a field goal at the 89:59 mark. No better way for Gallen to go out.

Draws do occasionally happen they're not an impossibility as we know.
If it happened to occur today without both teams intending to achieve this result... The stigma from this game, the captains, coaches etc will go down in folklore... Not quite up there with 1909 but close

yea imagine it..... Benji is 50 out and attempts a field goal as a joke... gets it.... we win


imagine the uproar ....... "benji u suck, that was eant to miss!"

I don’t think anyone seriously believes both teams would play for a draw. It’s borderline impossible to do that from kick off. It is a funny hypothetical though, given everyone hates the Broncos.

@Bula In the 88th minute when players are exhausted, I doubt any of the players from either team will be stopping to do the math.

my heart......

Mate I'm nervous as already, getting worse as the day approaches. I won't be watching, don't think I can handle it anymore.

What is it with this team?
They don't think it's enough that most games we play come down to the wire for a win, with fans hearts beating out their chests for 80 minutes! But hey lets do the same for the season and play for the finals in our last game of the season most years.

Mate half of this forum would have died by that stage...
