What happens if ?

[Andrew Walker]

The scores are level after 80 minutes tomorrow night Is it 10 each way extra time then golden point if the scores are till level ? Or is it straight into golden point ?

[horrie hastings]

I would think it would be like our 2010 match against the Tigpies, straight into Golden Point and then if the scores are still level after 5mins each way they keep playing till there is a score.

I think going straight to golden point in a big game is ridiculous.

Unlimited Golden Point... Always a farce. Imagine losing a GF like that.

Exactly.

Give them another 10-20 minutes to sort it out and then go to the farce of Golden Point.

You shouldn't lose a premiership from a flukey field goal or penalty.

cant thing of a more devesting way to win or lose

Golden point during normal season games I can live with, ridiculous in finals games.

Not sure why it is different to what it used to be.

especially given we have no real field goal sharpshooter !

The Chookpen would be filled with the saddest of all laments:

"If only we had Braith..."

Would you rather a full replay like they used to do it?? The AFL changed the rules only a couple of years ago because they had no contingency for a draw, I have no problems with Golden Point.

Funny thing is the two guys who have probably copped the most on here over the years, were probably our best field goal exponents.
Braith and Finch !
...suppose they had to be good for something ?

[Guest]

Mini is pretty good. Though he's only had the one attempt, but you can't argue with a 100% strike rate

[Guest]

Golden try would make it that much more bearable.

Anyway, just gotta hope it doesn't come down to that situation. We haven't needed a field goal all year.

Agreed.

I like the old extra time rule...
