But if we'd had won with that drop goal, would everybody still be having the same conversation?

A Super League team beaten by a golden point? The cynic in me suggests that the RFL might have ordered a replay!

A replay, we'd have been thrown out for bringing the game into disrepute!!!

No. Wasn't Penky's drop goal attempt before full time?

yes, crept towrds the posts, on target just not enough legs sadly! We'd have got the ball back, 1pt up & hopefully played the clock out... how games are decided by a kick of a ball!

The Halifax defence wasn't good enough to stop Cas scoring in golden point, sounds fair to me that they lost - if the defence was better they would have had a chance to win the game, and it would have been the same had Halifax won the coin toss.

Which is exactly the reason why the golden point isn't fair! The game is basically decided on a coin toss.

The team that wins it will probably have first chance to win the game. Whereas if it was decided through extra time both teams would probably have equal chances to score points.
