^^ True, so I'll rephrase it. Sometimes a draw after 80 mins is the right result. 10 mins of attempted dropgoals doesn't interest me at all.

Other than the additional time on Sky coverage, I can't see an issue with it. Frantic play as teams attempt to get into a position to take a drop goal should be exciting and in that I include strong running attackers hit by determined defenders - bang!

Then there's the emotional ups and downs of either winning or losing that will occasionally be tempted by a draw after the extra 10 minutes.

I have to agree with that.
How many will leave after the final hooter to either get a bus or a train home.

The race to cover a drop goal I. Defensive patterns will open up more set moves for tries. That will be their thinking.
