How about a little more defining of a rule change I have proposed above............

If an attacking team is intentionally fouled within 5 meters of the line...........It's a penalty try......and a yellow card for the offender

No more dragging down players in lineouts, collapsing scrums + mauls as they about to score a pushover try, deliberate offsides, hands in the rucks and all the other crap that teams get up to to stop great try scoring opportunities

I'd go with that idea nelsonone. Far too often this happens, and as long as only a penalty is awarded then it will keep happening.
IMO penalty tries are not given often enough,and the defending team get away with it if the penalty comes to nothing.
