Well that shows what a farce it is really.
I dont think any games should be played next season, teams should just be awarded on how nice the seats are in the ground and the playing surface.
Then for the Grand Final just get Eddie and Stevo to taste a burger at each of the grounds to decide the winner

P&R between different comps at different levels (professional and semi pro; or semi-pro and amateur) doesn't work and only damages clubs.
P&R within a comp, between different divisions at the same level does. I look forward to the day when we have enough clubs strong enough to be fully professional that we can look at introducing two divisions with P&R. But I think that's a good few years off yet.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Considering that generally interest is waning in the Championships ( despite it being a fantastic competition ) , that isn't going to happen in a hurry , and as an aside to the general feel of the recent posts
Why do people watch live sport ?
It isn't to see two teams playing each other , it is to ' feel ' the emotion of being in an arena with an atmosphere , quite often of us against them , there is a big crowd on at Headingley right now , with drums banging , fans singing and cheering partly because of a large and vociferous away support
If it was just to see two good teams play each other all those fans would be sat at home or in the pub , getting a better view , seeing more of the action , watching all the replays , saving a fortune , but they don't , they tip up , ' to be there '
Leigh are paying for coaches to bring Widnes fans to the game at the LSV next week , why ? , to bump up our average by a few hundred ? , no , to make money out of them ?, no as it is a split gate , we are doing it to try to improve the atmosphere at a game , in the hope that more home fans will attend and want to come back
We don't want a ' sanitized ' nice squeaky clean sport , we want atmosphere , emotion , we want to ' feel '
That is why people attend live sport , about time the RFL realised that

But they've nothing to play for. If they win the SL GF they don't get to be promoted to another competition, they just get to do it all over again. Just like teams in the Championship. Or teams in the Rugby League Conference National Division. In fact the only teams with anything to play for in your world are those in Championship 1. By rights, that should be the only compeition booming.
Mind if teams do win that and get promoted, then they've nothing to play for.

Well strangely in every sport you will eventually reach the peak , where you are correct , you cannot go any higher , and yes you are correct , that does apply in the amateur game as well , But that wasn't the point being made was it ?
You completely ignored that as usual
