    @whatthe-152:

    Full strength alcohol and the service of alcohol to intoxicated punters should be banned from stadiums full stop…

    Don’t take alcohol away from stands, helps us understand some of the ref’s calls.

    As far as bonus points for tries go i think it is a great idea. There is continual pressure to take away from points from kicking. proposal for penalties to be reduced to two points, increasing “value” of tries over years. Kicking must be part of game. Chiefs (and Sharks last year) showed how to break down Stormers defence with kicks behind rush defence. Bulls move play out of their half with line kicks and use their locks in set pieces to gain advantage. the drop goal adds different dimension as you have to commit players to “charge down” breaking defensive patter. In soccer we’ve seen teams scoring more goals past three seasons as they analyse defensive structures and with time rugby will produce more tries in phases as new moves are found and countered. A win is first prize, bonus point for tries scored will keep teams looking for tries, especially if they are behind.

    My big gripe on current laws is obstruction of the ball, holding players out of the ruck, interfering with dead balls (stopping quick through ins, delaying free kicks, throwing the ball away or holding on to it after being tackled into touch. Players must be yellow carded immediately for that.

    Speaking of humble pie… where is Hurricane?

    From today’s news on our ‘Mogg/White’ debate…

    “Mogg seems to be quicker than last season and his prodigious left foot can turn an opposition attack around with a 70-metre bomb.
    It’s been a stellar rise for Mogg, whom Brumbies coach Jake White spotted playing Canberra club rugby for Wests in 2011.”

    @hendrikp-112: I suppose you could be right, even if you’re posting from a Stormers perspective of a team who can’t score tries even in good conditions…

    I’d say we shouldn’t take the bonus point away, but maybe they could cancel each other out? like if both teams were to score 4 tries, then the bonus point gets canceled out so only 4 points.

    @MacroBull-157:
    Canceling out the 4 try bonus points when they are matched by the opposition would defeat the whole point of why there are big bucks paid by television companies and other sponsors who support the comp.

    They want entertainment.

    Getting the competitiveness v entertainment mix right is the challenge for teams.

    So while a competition like Super Rugby can absorb and flourish with a couple of top teams that don’t conform to the “entertainment” model, it would be a disaster if that was the norm across the board.

    The bonus point for losing inside 7 points is a nice counter for the 4 try bonus.

    @Brads-160: @MacroBull-157: Better leave it as it is or add another way to earn a bonus point – by scoring four tries or more THAN the opposition does. This one can be cancelled any time the oppo comes within 3 tries.

    @polaris-161:
    No to any changes, I like your opening comment “Better leave it as it is”

    The alternate suggestion is not goer for me.

    @Hurricane-163:

    Was quite simple really… I stated he’d plucked him from club rugby obscurity to where he stands today the form 15 in Super Rugby and knocking on the test door… you very doubted he’d have been there pre-season before his first year…

    Today’s article says you were wrong… now you can move on…

    @bryce_in_oz-167:
    I doubted that JW had seen him thats all. I said scouts go all over and tell coaches or managers what players look good and the coach or manager goes and watches a few games….. do you understand how it works?
    Point is i dont rate JW like you do. You have him down as the savior of rathbone, and he is the great nutritionist for the brumbies…. i find him a good coach that is all….. Now you can move on.
