Heres my plan, there should be 13 teams with 26 rounds (magic weekend included with teams alternating each season so the same team isn't losing a home fixture every year). Keep the international V's exiles 2 games during the season. The challenge cup final will be the first game at the end of the regular season. Then the playoffs start, the playoffs are straight forward with no second bite if you lose your out. 1st play 8th (game 1), 2nd play 7th (game 2), 3rd play 6th (game 3), 4th play 5th (game 4). Winner of game 1 plays winner of game 3, winner of game 2 plays winner of game 4. Going off this seasons fixtures the final would be played on the 22nd of september. After the SL playoffs a world club challenge with the top 4 teams (the 4 teams left at semi final stage of play offs) from SL and NRL. It would start on the 13th october so both sets of teams have a few weeks prep. There would be one round on each weekend with the final being played on the 27th october, Gf winner of SL plays 4th in NRL playoffs (game 1), SL runner up plays 3rd place in NRL playoffs (game2), SL 3rd place plays NRL runner up (game 3) and SL 4th place plays NRL GF winner (game4). winner of game 1 plays winner of game 3, winner of game 2 plays winner of game 4. there is a chance of a all SL or NRL final but i think it will be a good knockout comp. the reason i said a playoff system is because a league will take too long.

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 |

Not saying it would on either accoumt , just pointing out why the NRL operates differently , and why we will never be able to work that way |

Like to bet that all the Im alright Jacks who assume their club would be in a reduced league would soon change their tunes if they were under threat.
Anyhow how can the game be perceived by the general public to be progressing if they see a reduction in competing teams.

That perception only works if you only see SL as RL

The public perception would be that the number of top flight clubs has reduced.

Do the ' public ' have a perception of RL at all? |
