Quote Stul="Stul"I disagree, Sombrero.
Outside of the heartlands, there is no rugby (of the good code) between Super League and the amateur game - at least that is the perception.'"
But the whole experiment with London in SL isn't working. Surely the best way to develop RL outside of the heartlands is to generate interest by having teams outside the heartlands competing for silverware and honors?
If you're a new, developing team which would you prefer, getting tonked week in week out in SL, or winning the Northern Rail Cup? Which is going to boost your profile more and attract more interest in your local area?
It's the whole thing about success breeds success.
