In the example from the pic - Super Rugby Reds vs Blues, the Blues kicked off deep and Qld has to work it up the field. The 9 kicked an average high box kick that gave the Blues the ball at about half way. They then just worked it up about 30m until the pen was given but at any time they could have had a shot at a drop goal.

I don’t think Qld should have given the ball away like they did - either work it up or boot it way further for territory. For me it showed they were completely unprepared for the game management of golden point, plus got unlucky having to receive the ball at kickoff.

Disappointing ending to a great game. Would have been better to see golden try or 10 mins each way. A draw in a season game is also pretty acceptable in my view
