Given that no kicks will be allowed and you only have one tackle, I wouldn't expect to see too many double tries scored.

It’s an ill-conceived idea by deluded pillocks who think that they know what the games real fans want to see.



How about this for an idea:



When a team scores they can forfeit the conversion attempt in exchange for a ‘time-bomb’ ball.



This is where they get one last play with a special exploding ball – the kicker is they don’t know exactly how long they’ve got before it goes off. Anything between 2 minutes and 20 seconds. If you get caught in possession when the ball explodes your likely to lose your arms so I can be a bit of a gamble but would make for a much more exciting game to watch.

aint it just like american football fake a kick and run it? too much american for me!

It's akin to American Football where sides can opt go for 2 points after a touchdown by passing or running the ball into the end zone rather than 1 for a kick.

Also the idea of changing players is like AF with offensive & defensive teams.

Don't dismiss the idea out of hand, if it's the last play of the game & one side is 3 or 4 points behind just think of the extra excitement this would generate?

I believe its worthy of a proper debate, likewise the 2/4 referee proposal.

sounds like it could be worrth the debate, can't see many people going for it apart from when its a touchline conversion / really windy / no kicker on the field.



As for the interchanges before it, thats far too much American Football and would slow the came, so a bit no!

Bad idea. Some games one team would only touch the ball to kick off.

How do they recieve the ball and is it just for 1 tackle?



Sounds stupid to me.

What happens should a defending player intercept the ball? I like new ideas, and it's fun to try them, but my first reactions to this one are not positive.

I think it means that on the next set instead of getting 6 tackles you get 7, like when receiving the ball from a knock on

That's not how I read it. It reads to me like you get one tackle in opposition territory after a try, which allows you to add 4 pointys rather than the 2 you would get from the kick. Similar to the 2 point conversion in NFL.

Hmmm, could be that I suppose. Sounds even sillier to me

It's not very clear at all is it, if it's one last tackle with no kicks from a drop out or restart then I think I would take the two everytime unless you were 7 or 8 behind obviously.
