Eg a try in the second minute should be worth more than a try in the 20th minute. (say 5 points as opposed to 4 points?). This will reward teams for starting strongly and punish those who don't. Likewise tries in the last 10 minutes should be worth 5 points. Also conversions for tries scored out wide should be worth 3 points because they're more hard.

Just imagine we need 8 points to win the match ... one of our players crosses under the bar in the last minute then makes a bee line for the corner flag in order to qualify for the "3 point conversion". The sport could become "the thinking man's game". Exciting indeed.
