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
The problem with this is the draw isn't even, you play some teams twice and others once, it would be an unfair advantage to the teams that get to play the bad teams twice while others will only get to pay them once.
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.
"He's a physical specimen (as in he's in great shape and I can't recall him ever being out for an extended period due to injury). As you say disciplined. Plus I reckon he's got a smidge of psycho about him which will come in handy."
"I also am very hopefuly that JDB is a good pick up. I can understand the Saints letting him go - their exciting crop of young forwards are probably 1-2 seasons advanced on where our young forwards are, plus they've had exposure to NRL and don't look…"

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.
