Curious.
Would it add to the modern real world game ie: 13 game. Attacking game , exiting for lesser teams jagging extra points to beat more fancied sides .Could it make the game better ?

Maybe there is a try scoring zone which includes the area between the posts and 10M on either side of the posts that is automatically a 6 point try with no conversion attempt. Would speed up the game and kickers rarely miss ftom this range anyway.

Rarely but they do kicking is a skill that decides a game. The close kicks 1 would argue are more important to the outcome cause a missed close kicks haunts a kicker/team more then the sideline miss
Yeah I know. But to fix alot of things within the game. It would produce a complete rethinking of attacking. It also throws a psychological element into it. I'm behind by one etc. But yeah you need to play everyone twice.
I didn't mind the 20:40 kick. That was unexpected. I didn't go but apparently the goal posts lit up when a conversion happened and a try was scored? Brilliant.
Is the 20-40 rule going to enter the full edition of the game? That would be great. It would certainly help balance field position. Any team with a decent kicker would be licking their lips.
"So which team of the 17 are you following this week Hector? Let me take a guess. I reckon the Bulldogs 😂 I mean if you seriously supported the Eels as you claim then you would clearly be concerned about not winning a premiership in 40 years and…"
"We are still scoring points. Most wooden spoon teams struggle to put points on the board. If we can fix defensive lapses and stupid penalties we will start winning games again. Forget about last weekend's game - clearly the players didn't show up…"
"I reckon the Knights will start struggling when Ponga returns. They will become the Ponga show once again. All ball will go to him and they'll start moving away from the collective way they have been playing."

It's a bit of a gimmick that is best left in the 9's format I think.

That might work

Only for Parra. Everyone else has to score at least from 10 meters out.
