Extra time and then if scores are still tied, next score wins (just like the old school days).

Should be golden goal after the extra 10minutes

But honestly it'll probably never happen so not fussed

[Nige]

Now I really want another drawn grand final to see this in effect.

Yeah I'd prefer golden goal as well

[fanTCfool]

Well, you wouldn't want to be rushing through a behind after extra time!

The best part about 2010 was that all the ACTUAL FANS got to go to the replay and not the greedy, lucky arse corporates ::)

So much for that! ::)

good news. about flowerin 6 years too late though >:(

[Ziplock]

yeah, golden goal would be better than next point

Or do what they do in touch, and take a player off the field every couple of minutes :P

Surely next goal wins the grand final not next score if we are getting rid of replays. Next score I don't like it

It's okay Pendles, unless you change clubs you won't have to worry about it again :)

What happens regarding interchanges?

What happens regarding interchanges?

In the event of a drawn GF at full time, they play 5mins each way, 15 extra interchanges for the extra time. If scores are still tied at the end of the extra 10mins, they go to golden point.

I reckon it should be a certain number of points, maybe 3 points. If you win a GF on a rushed behind, you haven't really earned it (though I guess you could argue that in getting to golden point time, you kinda have). But equally if you make it strictly golden goal, then what happens in the (unlikely) event you get all the ball but also get the yips, and kick 20 behinds, then the opposition get it once and goal - you're 14 points ahead but you lose? If you had to get a 3 point lead then at least you have to have 3 scoring attempts to win by behinds, or effectively is still golden goal...

[Ringo]

Like this one Kiwi - that way if a team does all the attacking but has wayward kicking still a chance to win by getting 3 points in front. If A goal is kicked as you say still gets the game.

[PowerBug]

Yep do we really want a gf ending where the team that scores less points wins the match!?
