Bring back the super goal!

[lizard man]

Back in the days of the wizard cup if you kicked a goal outside the 50 meter line you would receive 9 points instead of 6. I feel these days we don’t see enough of these running goals outside 50 which is a shame because they’re exciting and they are the goals fans get most pumped up about because there’s a build up so it bring the crowd into the game more

Who else would like to see this rule be implemented?

It's a great idea. Love it, lizard man.

SuperDooper goals

Hitting the outside behind posts flush for 15 points if kicked from outside 50

Massive risk v reward

AFL Super Goal is the cricket equivalent of hitting a 6.

Multi ball

I think it’s not stupid at all. The roost is one of the better things in AFL. But I worry about too many changes to the game too

Get rid of the stand rule

STAND!

May as well bring back three points for hitting the goal post as well.

So a 49m goal from the boundary is worth less than a goal 50m in front?

Anyone who says it isn't a stupid idea is being stupid.

And put velcro on the ball and goal posts so it sticks. Will entertain!

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Absolutely not. The game's farcical enough as it is.

Or three pointer in basketball I would have thought would have been its equivalent. Bringing in the three changed basketball for the better.

Certainly not all players have the leg to kick 50 plus though.

But basketball and stuff. And also - pretty silly argument. A centimetre’s difference in a sport has always been a thing.

“Oh it almost hit the wicket so it may as well be out”?

Come on

Wouldn't hate it. 9 might be too much though

Whaaaat? Insane idea. A goal is a goal and is worth 6 points even if you kick it from full back! What is in your Weeties?

Wait wait wait
Is it the off season already?

so, you new Richmond supporters of around 8 years or so, the season goes on for a few more months after your own team is out of contention.

 

[Truetiger]

So another change to our game lol.

Pro-rata point system?

Perhaps we increase points based on the statistical difficulty of the shot. so a 50m kick on the boundary line could be worth 12 points?

I know these ideas are stupid but a long put in golf yields the same result as a 1m put but the 1m put comes from the better drive. So should kicking outside 50 be rewarded?
