Great, now we get to watch matches decided purely by the referee's whistle, because the lazy, backwards cunts in the Northern Hemisphere don't actually want to see people play rugby, they want to see them play soccer.
the saffas destroy the all blecks 31-19, with Morne Stein scoring all 31 points, courtesy of 8 penalty goals.
HOW FUCKING EXCITING.
there is nothing recommending these old rules, except for the fact that northern hemisphere teams knowing they are utterly unable to produce a result against Aus, SA or NZ without copious help from the referee (with the occasional exception of england, who can from time to time actually play well). These rules are nothing but a way to slow down the game so our athletes are hamstrung into a stodgy, dull game fat guys can play.

Id, for once we are in total agreement. Penalty kicks are for gays.

it's not funny rob_berg he's got a valid point. The fucking idiot north have no IDEA about running rugby and......wait a minute iddqd are you just insinuating the northern hemisphere write the rules because shouldn't that test have had Australian officials? didn't it?
Penalties should be 2 points. I understand that the new zealanders infringe all the time but that's why yellow card indiscretions should be a life ban for them. Everybody else gets two points and some fat fuck dressed in bleck gits a will-dusirved teme ewt - feweruvar.

Agree, it makes for a boring game.
But bitching about it won't change it.
Sour grapes much?

the accuracy of the kickers means that when they take a kick, theyre about 80-85% sure of the points. at the very least, especially given that when they take the kick, theyre usually in front. further, so many teams play at high altitude so that their kickers can reliably take a shot anywhere within 60 metres of the uprights. FUN.
i think the ELVs were great, they promoted running rugby and saw a bunch of tries scored, as well as games that went the boring old, kickicckickickickpenalty3points over and over and over. its dull and not remotely watchable.
as for the points, they should be 2 points for a penalty. 3 is too much.

what would you see changed?
the threshold for penalty or the reward for penalty?
I've often thought it odd that its 3 points for penalty and just 5 for a try.
the conversion is far from a foregone conclusion in rugby (for the seppos).
