[QUOTE="Umaga's Witness, post: 1054623, member: 65365"] Well, given players have gotten better at defending, fitter, faster, there are subs now, 12 a side is closer to the designed intent of the game than 15 a side is. Its like basketball, ok this is going to sound like I’m going against my point because everyone loves a slam dunk, but basketball was designed that players had to throw the ball into the hoop, so once people came along that could slam dunk, they should have raised the height of the hoop. So in this case having slam dunks makes fun watching, but in the rugby case we just get less tries being Scired maybe they should just increase the size of the rugby field. Is 12 players few enough for an open game? In a 30 minute game, it Sounds like an invitation for a penalty goal fest. Maybe they should outlaw penalty goals unless someone gets carded. Are they allowed subs? how many? [/QUOTE]
