They also wore woollen jumpers. Maybe we should change back to those to increase scoring?Interesting. In the old days they kicked to a contest and kicked more goals
Seriously, if teams were forced to consistently kick to contests, they'd set up more behind the play to prevent turnover goals, meaning larger imbalance numbers forward. Scoring would be a lot harder and scoring from turnovers would be a lot harder.
All IMO of course. If kicking to contests increased your chances of scoring a goal then clubs would do it more often.
