This  will take the competitive edge out of "some" games and they will  now be dead after 50-60 minutes. It should have stayed IMO.

cause kicking a pen in the last minute to get one like several teams including us did makes games super competitive.
Seems one of your lot was fuming at this decision :D wonder why

Difference between haven fans and the town fans. Haven fans pleased they've gone. Town fans disappointed. Suppose they'll have to try to win games again now!

Should have one similar to union where you get one for scoring more trys

Mind you it's odd that as soon as 2 super league teams are relegated the system is scrapped.

it's bad news for both Cumbrian clubs BKM. Before you are quick to applaud this change just remember the massive gulf in budgets between some clubs. Teams on the lowest budgets can now look forward to pure damage limitation games with not a chance of anything.

BP was never going to be allowed when it involved SL clubs, if they were all for it, it would have been brought into SL long ago.

From a personal point of view it was there to be won. Not Towns fault our defense at times has been criminal
