  I would add that in a tight game, the 5 goal reward is unfair to the looser, because if the game would go for a couple minutes longer, up to the time limit, the result might change.

  And i'd say, the 5 goal cap does allow to sit on a two goal advantage as well. ANyways it's a tactic. Small team tactic yes, but valid.

  What we'll have to adress i think is rules for defense, three bikes in front of the goal can be very disuassive. Fortunately, teams seem to find ways in.

• Goalies, and back through the goal

  I consider hacking goalies mallet to be a bit too wild, a bit out of the gameplay. I would like to try a wider goal. I think. We'll do that in Spain maybe.

  I think the goalie is a grey spot in an otherwise great game. Time will tell...

  The games were definetely not boring. But made the rol of the goalie a bit boring yes, apart from the few times the goalie advanced a bit and took the ball.

  I think, just to help goalie's boredom, and overall play... the goals should be a bit wider.

  It's like as if the goal in football was as wide as the goalie's arms. This way it's like he/she just has to spread his/her arms and keep the legs tight.

  My 2 cents anyway

  I am from Barcelona, and I've just registered. So I don't have much credit, but...

  One of my mates had an idea, maybe not him... but you know... an idea that deal the two positions, can a goalie be disturbed off the ball, and isn't the goalie making the game too defensive, not attractive...

  I agree that a static goalie is not playing polo, is just trackstanding or having a big polo mallet head (remember L'equipe?). So it is a very static position and i think it ruins a bit the game, so the vast majority of the goals are made just in front of the goalie, or behind him/her... that doesn't make for very spectacular goals is it. Or very good plays that get stuck on the everstanding lucky goalie.

  So... the idea was, with the "D" area in mind, (the size the one in the tournament I think should be ok) not to let the goalie inside, so it will be easier to over pass him from the side, or make a pass...

  would make for a more active goalie, having to adjust the position as the game develops. What do you think?
