[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 779553, member: 40658"] To me this is a bit of a double edged sword. This idea is great IMHO, because it not only promotes teams who score a lot of tries, but also promotes teams with great defence. So in essence to score the bonus point, the teams should be good in both attack and defence. It could however have a negative effect though, in that teams with very good defensive structures could just keep on defending and go for penalties on mistakes from the other team, which could result in low scoring games. To me, this move will help the South African sides a lot more than the Aussie and NZ sides... [/QUOTE]
