Yeah, I can see why that would be. In Rugby, you actually have to bring the player to the ground, but you can just run into your opposition at the equivalent speed of a freight train to tackle in football.

Although having said that, the World Club Challenge is only slightly more "World" than the World Series, since only British & Australian teams take part. And don't even get me started on the crap names of tournaments. Champions League? With teams that finished second & third in there? Change the name already!

With updated statistics in football being accurate (brits will know what i mean when i say carling opta) I think that after ET the game should be awarded to the team with most Shots on Target. The team with most shots on target have usually been the better team within a game and the game being settled in this manner would mean that the team behind would have to attack in Extra Time making the game more open.

I had a sig, once.

That would toatly blow as the team who won the shootout out would put 11 men and the kitchen sink behind the ball and defend
