@Duluth I know I keep banging on about this but we would have had 3 or 4 AB tests by now in normal times? I haven't missed them this year. I will miss the Ab's leaving the NPC though and it turning back into the dross we have experienced for the past couple of decades

Completely and utterly agree. We'll both be branded as broken records, but who cares.

You should be allowed another go if you can do that and I haven't seen it before either.

Surely you get extra points to manage that?

yeah, that occurred to me after i wrote that, you might be right, if the conversion is only going to draw it..do you aim for the post/crossbar and aim for the win...commentators would go nuts

That would be gold.

We could have an entire mini game, with human pyramids to stop the ball going over, points for style, etc.
@Machpants that you Andrew Forrest?

@Bovidae Yep, he played for the Raiders U20 squad that won the 2020 Canberra Regional Rugby League Cup, last week. Although he didn't play in the Final, he played most games (so maybe injured?).
The article also confirms what I've said for more than a year: that he changed to league because he was being overlooked in rugby. And that's a real loss.

Not sure whether this has been posted already, but Teihorangi Walden has now officially been ruled out of the remainder of the Mitre 10 Cup (ruptured achilles tendon).
