Round 1: Las Vegas Discussion / *Spoilers*

I'd rather piss off GP but if it must be kept. 4 points for a regulation win 3 points for a GP win 2 for a draw 1 point for GP loss and 0 for a regulation loss.
Dragons don't deserve the same 0 points as the Cowboys. Nor do dogs the same 2 points as the knights.

I would rather a golden try or 5 mins played each way and whoever is in front at the end wins...i.e. you kick a field goal and the game continues so other team could have a crack too. However a try ends it immediately.

Id be fine with this also

I think the challenge was worthwhile. The Dragons player didn't change his line at all. He turned and went straight towards the ball. Just because a player gets impeded doesn't mean the other player did something wrong. Anyone can run into someone and claim to be impeded.

I thought Guffbo caught the ball and then ran straight behind his own player. I agree that the onfield call was 50/50 but I wouldn't chance a challenge on a judgement call.
A very optimistic challenge ,especially at that stage of th game. You gotta be smart with them.

My reasoning is more to piss off the field goal shoot out and the 2 points from a bad penalty killing a great game.

I like that system, but I dislike keeping the golden point part unless it is a try.

I still reckon that a draw at full-time should mean both teams get one competition point, THEN they play golden point overtime (5 each way) for the other competition point. It makes the 'Golden Point' name have a double meaning and would make the ladder a truer representation as currently a team losing by one in Golden Point gets the same as a team getting beat by 50. Ie. Nothing.

What happens when the game finishes a draw in golden point under your system?

100% this is the only fair way to go about things. You shouldn't get 0 points for a golden point loss, doesn't seem fair.

I just posted something similar. In my opinion the problem with this though you can't have some competition games where 3 points are up for grabs and some only 2 points.

In my proposal, the maximum points a team can get in any game is 2 for the win. No one gets three points. In this example, both teams get 1 point if scores are level at the end of 80 mins just like they would for a draw. THEN they play Golden Point to see who gets the extra 1 competition point for the win. So 2 for the winner after golden point and 1 for the loser because the game was drawn at end of regulation time. Does that make sense?

Classic draw result as it is now. Both teams go home with 1 point.
