    @KiwiMurph I don't see how it would guarantee teams not being on the same points at the end of the comp. Wouldn't it be just as likely?

    Might need one of the numbers guys here. @Rapido or @nzzp ?

    Yeah, a team might win a match in golden point, which puts them on equal points as another team (who won in real time), then the golden point team might have more tries which is the tie breaker. So basically a team that had a draw might prevail over a team that had an actual 'win' on the table. That seems a bit messed up.

      I didn't say guarantee but fair point.

      I guess bonus points become a big factor - presumably you would get a losing bonus point as a golden point loser (for being within 7) but the winner would be very unlikely to get a winning bonus point (unlikely to have 3 tries more than opposition and end up in golden point)

        I emailed Kayo (Fox) to ask if they're playing Aotearoa Super Rugby and they replied they don't have it.

        I hope it's just a rights negotiation thing ...

        I would have thought they'd dying for content. That said, they're barely arsed to pay any cash for rugby featuring Australian teams, so why would they fork out anything for rugby featuring NZ teams only?

            Yeah, I emailed them about an hour ago. Hopefully if Fox don't have the rights then we'll be able to play them in Oz through Rugbypass.

                  Given everyone is strapped for cash I’m not surprised Fox Sports aren’t forking out for this NZ comp.

                  I like the golden point rule. Winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing 😎

                      Golden point comes accoss to me as administrators so scared people might think their sport is too shit to handle a draw, or their fans too dumb. One or the other.

                      With cricket and soccer among the top sports followed in this country, I really don't think this is a problem that needs solving.

                          Agree with the sentiment and they really fucked it up last time they tried a new rule to fix a draw in ODIs.

                                      I'm looking forward to the answer. I'll be beyond irritated if it's not available for viewing on the West Island.

                                        @KiwiMurph If they have the rights in Oz I'll definitely use them, but they haven't got back to me so far to say if they have them.

                                        I'm looking forward to the answer. I'll be beyond irritated if it's not available for viewing on the West Island.

                                        Me too, it also means I wont be watching the Warriors ... but that's likely a net positive.
