I must admit, I like the 40/20 despite not thinking I would do, but I can't see much benefit to introducing a 20/40. One thing it would definitely do is add another layer of complication for the casual viewer. And where would it stop? Why 20/40 and 40/20 but not 10/50, 30/30, and so on?
I don't like the idea of a 20/40. For me it may just promote more kicking to avoid a defensive position and gain an attacking position. With the 40/20 at least if you kick you are already close to the halfway, and maybe not as likely to kick. We all used to call union for the amount of kicking, now we may be introducing a rule that promotes it more in league.

Apparently they're going back to steeden balls which by all accounts are better handling than the rhinos
