Golden point should only be used after extra time in a knockout match. If a team earns a draw away in a league game then they should share the points.

Some bookmakers will take the result after 80 minutes, no extra time. Some will take the final match result. It should tell you which when taking the bet.

Again, rugby is played over 80 minutes. There should be no extra time or golden points unless it is a knockout competition, such as CC, playoffs, or GF.

I agree. It's perfectly suited to a cup game, but not at all necessary for the league.

A draw and a point could be the difference between relegation and staying up come the season end.

I agree Roy. The only people who don't see it, are the clowns running the game.

The Aussies did it so we have to do it.

Doesnt matter as there is no relegation in the ARL.

If it is a 'Must', then it needs to be a 3 point match with the extra point going to the team getting the golden point if successful.

Adds nothing to the game, we've won some and lost plenty. It just feels contrived. A draw is a fair result when two teams perform at a similar level for 80m, no need to force a binary outcome.

When this rule was brought in it should have been a point for each team with a bonus point for winning in golden point. It's madness that a team can come away with nothing after effectively matching the opposition for 80 minutes, especially when they might not even get a touch of the ball.

Another game last night where two sides equally matched after 80 minutes couldn’t end in a draw. Decided after 13 hours of tit for tar drop goal attempts. I lost count at 900 missed drop goals.

Golden point is the worst Australian import since Rolf Harris.

Needs to end ... nothing wrong with a draw in a league fixture.

A League should be decided on points earned, if you win you earn 2 points, if you draw you earn 1 point.

The golden point could be used after extra time in knockout games.
