What happens if it's still a draw?

I was just wondering what what happens in the finals if it's still tied after golden point has played out.
I can still remember the Super League Tri-Series Final between NSW and Qld in 1997. After 100 minutes of play (80 + 20 extra), Alfie Langer asked Bill Harrigan if they should toss a coin to see who wins. The look of absolute horror on the face of a very naive Laurie Daley was priceless.

I think this might have been the first golden point game, with Noel Goldthorpe kicking a field goal after a few minutes for a NSW win.

The Andrew Johns rule is invoked

Every player takes a bucket load of eccy's and best gurn wins

Such as this sea of gurn photo

Winner will probably end up looking like this

Replay the next week.

Both teams are coached by Steve Price for 3 days each. Winner is the team who can still find their way to the ground. In the event of a no show by both teams, winner is whoever gets geographically closer as the crow flies.

I was thinking the something, highly doubtful i know but stranger things have happened. Does anyone want to see a grandfinal won on golden point or time each way or replay??

A replay would be good however RL has an international program after the NRL finishes unlike AFL so it's not going to happen

If no clear winner emerges from all of this, a two-man sack race will be held on consecutive Sundays until a champion can be crowned.

A few years ago in Rugby, one particular game in England still finished a draw in extra time, they went for a goal shoot out.

Perhaps the opposition team should chose the goal kicker, ie .Roosters pick George Rose.

What's the excuse for every other game being a goal shoot out???

If it's a draw the Burgess Brothers will decide the winner, if they come to a 2-2 deadlock, then Mother Burgess will cast the deciding vote.

I went to the Sharks V Manly and the Parra V St George drawn GF's.

Both of those games were played on the next Tuesday.

Should really be played the next Sunday for teams to be recharged.
