Suprisingly I like all the changes.
The scrum ones make much more sense. The ruck ones will stop players killing 5 minutes of the game towards the end when they are a few points up (or at least make it harder to do so). I like the points system changes. I think it remains like it currently is, teams are awarded too much for their ability to follow the interpretations of the laws from the referees persepctive. It doesn't endear the gameto new fans. Often the majority of points in a game comes from penalties, which is different from pretty much any other sport I can think of.
I agree with Darwin's idea. I personally would be happy to see a try go to six points and keep the conversion two, or make a try seven points and make a conversion 1 point. If you raised this slightly, there would just be that much more incentive to go for a try. In my opinion it should be at the least:
Try: 6
Con:1
Pen:2
DG: 3
