[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 817400, member: 56232"] I believe they have been massively overlooked and are a valuable tool. There is something to be said for keeping the scoreboard ticking over constantly, it really hurts late game if you are trailing and really need the tries to win. England in 2003 and more recently have shown how important it is to keep points coming regardless of source and Ford's DGs helped against Saints as you said. It also helps in attack if teams have to constantly been on the watch for a DG attempt rather than just big runners. Being able to get 3 points from every visit to the 22 is a great way to keep teams under pressure. [/QUOTE]
