[QUOTE="Fa'atau82, post: 261311"] I think it might have to be re-thought. It's a good idea, but watching forwards toe punt it into the adboards is not a good advert for rugby, and isn't really fair for such a skill specific game. For a start, you can't really kick goals with forwards boots. Rather as an alternative to a shoot-out, i think they should have the teams reduced to 7 players after the 100 mins, so effectively you get a 7's game, complete with DG's for conversions for 15 mins. Not too long, you'd see a bit more excitement. I would rather have kicks at goal by nominated kickers across the 22, touchline to touchline. If it was still all square, the next kicker will make 5.. and so forth until we have a winner. Or you could have DG's for the kicks or penalties/DG's that go back 10m after every successful attempt.
