Golden point is trash, the elation of drawing level then the final whistle, followed by 0-10 minutes of tired players doing terrible drop goal attempts until one goes over. Point each, move on.

Yes BUT the two golden point game on Saturday were absolute drama weren't they? RL is an entertainment business.

Personally, I don't have a problem with draws but I can see why we have golden point too. I may have a less even view of this had we lost to FC though!

Never liked the concept of winner takes all Golden point.If its a must have, surely each team at 80 mins deserve 1 point.The Golden point should be an additional point to the winner.

Golden point just increases the drama. Not sure why people have a problem with it. Maybe give the losing side a point though. Love it

I think thats a decent idea mate. Personally i see nothing in the game ending in a draw but theres no denying the drama on Saturday was incredible.

Yep. Seems like a no brainer to me. Very telling that as a season ticket holder for 40 odd years at the sports biggest club nobody in Superleague or the RFL ever bothers to ask my opinion. Fist rule of politics is never to disrespect your core base. First rule of spectator sports too.

You can't unbalance the league's points system by giving three in one game and two in every other one so that's a none starter.

However they should move it to golden try.
