Message: [QUOTE="OXY-351, post: 2708396, member: 2107"] Normal seaosn games just have a draw. Finals have 20 mins of extra time (two 10 min halves). If scores are still locked up, then I could possibly live with golden point or golden try after that, but would probably prefer to keep going with blocks of 10 mins of extra times (two 5 mins halves) until some team wins. Sure this could result in a long game, but it's unlikely it would go beyond the first 20 min extra time anyway. There is too much luck involved in GP imo. Or probably more correctly one play in GP can have too much influence on the game, compared to the plays in the 80 mins prior to it. Ben Hunt could have had a blinder in the 80 mins regular time, then drops the ball from the kickoff in GP. That one single play of dropping the ball pretty much hands the game to the cowboys. At least if there is another 19 mins to come back from such a mistake, it might make the result a little fairer and the better team is more likely to win. It just seems like with GP it comes down to who can kick the field goal better. Hardly a real indication of the overall game, and it's not even exciting. It's pretty rare for any decent footy to actually get played in GP. Good on the cowboys for winning, as they just played to the current rules, but no team deserves to lose a GF like the Broncos did.
