Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.
If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

As part of their end of season review, some Wigan fans are now suggesting that tries from bombs should only be awarded 3 points!?!
They claim it's becoming an outdated form of scoring tries, with only Hull/Fonoa using it.
So, if you can't beat a team in the Cup or League table, then change the rules until you do?
Wigan, the fans that keep on giving! What's not to love?  icon_lol.gif" alt="icon_lol.gif" title="Laughing" /> |

There are a number of things you could translate from this.
Firstly, if fewer players are adopting this tactic, thats because the skill set needed, not many have.
Secondly, if it is such a niche element of the game and difficult to execute then it would be rational to award it more points, not less.
Finally and probably more realistic, Wigans halves are simply not good enough. |

Could have sworn Wigan's first try at Wembley was a result of a high kick, but then again not many of their fans were there to see it?
