When Matt Lodge said "tonight is the night you die" maybe he was having a Bran Stark style warging moment and was actually referring to Golden Point on March 23, 2018.

Just a theory.

But Skeletor is right. It really does have to go.

We can't have teams losing like that to a 'markers not square' penalty that never was after busting their arses off for 88 minutes.

C'mon Toddles, by the power of greyskull, make the call.

You haveee the POWEERRRRR!!

Since teams defend so well on their try line now why the hell is the attack still so conservative. Roll the dice from within your own half, take some chances, play some football...back your try line defence.
The offensive coaches need to start coming up with something. Maybe bring back the chip/chase.

Golden try otherwise draw during the regular season. Ashley Clown is the most inept ref out there.

Perhaps eliminate FG's all together? ACA won't stand for it.

Goddamn some of my fondest football memories are from winning golden point games... when it’s good, it’s GREAT.

But in my formative footballing years the Broncos were blessed with Lockyer, one of the few players who could consistently kick a field goal. This probably made me view the concept through rose coloured glasses.

Players making a mockery of offside rules, one out footy building for really piss poor field goal attempts (seriously, why are NRL players so garbage in general at field goals?) makes for an ugly sight. Maybe it’s time it goes.
