Give your point of view in what rules of the Modern Rugby League game should be changed by the Board and David Gallop. Give suggestions also in what rules should change in the Toyota cup under 20's.

you get just as many bad decisions coming from the video ref anyway

That's the thing i enjoy about the Toyota Cup, the spontaneous refereeing decisions, with no video referee. I would much rather that, a decision in no less than 10 seconds as opposed to a video ref referral, sometimes taking up to 3-4 minutes. Sure you can say the Video Ref is more likely to get the decisions right, but human error is a part of the game. Allow referees to make up their own minds.

One change i wouldn't mind, is a two man refereeing system. One referee controlling the attacking team, checking for accidental offside, knock-ons etc, while another referee controlling the defensive team, therefore checking for rakes, high shots, grapples, etc.

Perhaps an in-goal touchie as well?

then maybe in the finals they could introduce the video ref for try and no try rulings ONLY

The Golden Point rule is quite debatable. Personally i like seeing a result being established from a game, although i agree with your point, about players giving it their all for 80 minutes only to play an extra time period to determine a winner which may come from nothing more than a lucky field goal, which does not seem entirely fair.

Golden Point adds to the excitement of the game, fans know the next to score wins, it adds to the intensity and ferocity of the game almost always. Players nowadays have the stamina, fitness and mental strength to go longer than the allocated 80 minutes, allowing them to playout te Golden Point. Some people believe a game should not be determined by Golden Point, but im up for it, if you cannot split a team after 80 minutes, i guess it's the only way to separate two teams who have gone at it all game.

As a follower of the AFL too, i must say, im devastated after a draw, knowing my team came so close only to come out with a draw. It's hard not to dwell on the "could haves" or "should haves". Golden Point allows a result, which im all up for.

these newbies...This Jason guy only made about 30 posts and already started 3 threads!! Thankfully his threads offer some healthy discussion not just shit like other newbies

Ummmm yeah. You see that Wentworthville game vs Newtown. That was a bit ridiculous going for 104 minutes, had 26 field goal attempts but missed. That should have ended another way? After the game both half backs and five eights got signed up by nrl clubs (What were the clubs thinking none of them got a field goal and all the tries came out from wide). Thats just my opinion a good half-back should be able to put a droppy over and set up some tries.

Sorry I went a bit of topic. I was trying to say something has to change in finals when there is golden point. Possibly putting in a field goal shoot out lol (That was random), but yeah a game cant go 104 minutes and only have 12 interchanges.

I've actually done a bit of research on this in the back half of the season and you are exactly right, there are just as many decisions that the commentators disagree with when the video ref is used as when he's not i.e Toyota Cup.

I think we should scrap the video ref all together, he doesn't get it right any more often than when the referee makes the decision on the spot and he slows the game to a crawl...
