Phil Clarke agrees with me.

He says that the bonus point encourages negative play, as BARROW are doing right now.

Vindicated at last

pathetic tactic from barror drop goal after drop goal.

I wonder if we'd do the same though?

playing for the top of the league - Barrow aiming for a l< 12 point oss with drop goals - get rid of this stupid points system

The BskyB commentators don't like it so, as their bosses run the game, we may see it quietly disposed off soon.

doesnt really matter anyway.

we have beat them 3 times from 3 this season we will beet them again.

Without the ridiculous bonus point system we could still be going for top spot on Saturday.

No we wouldn't. We've not got the brains to play the way Barrow did second half. We'd have just kept the ball alive up the middle until we dropped it. I'm affraid I'm feeling very negative after watching that tonight. We've made a total mess of our oportunity this year. WE ARE the best team by a country mile and we've no form going into the play offs.

In the last three seasons only three clubs have managed to emulate the same achievement. Those clubs are Widnes, Salford and now Sheffield.

Can anyone guess what it is?

Bonus point in every game they lost..


It really is a naff rule. That was so negative i wouldn't have thought barrow made many friends playing like that..

just showed tonight n highlighted how bonus point can bring negative play.
but also shows how against fev how we did not defend for bonus point.

I wouldnt want my team to play like that - its not a case whether we are intelligent enough. I dont want to support a team that is playing to lose by less than 12 points. Dire, just dire.
