[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 592740, member: 44360"] I find there is really no need to change the scoring. People complain about drop goals but the rate of them is less than one a match anyway, and it's from open play and is a lot more exciting than watching a minute and a half lead up to a penalty in front of the posts. Penalties need to be kept at the same value for the reason dull brought up and for conversions, I think three points is WAY too much, might lead to some odd situations where teams are desperate to centre the kick. We also might see less spectacular tries to the corner replaced by more pick and go tries to ground under the posts. If anything up the value of the try to 6 and lower the conversion to 1, but I don't think anything needs to be changed. [/QUOTE]
