The reason for the chopping and changing though is that the decisions originally made have been shown up to be poor and changes have been needed. Knee Jerk decisions are being made (club call) to supposedly make our game unique but just end up seen as gimmicks that cheapen our game. Fundemental changes in our game are needed and the RFL needs to start listening to just the same people over and over again. Gimmicks are not needed. Real and honest evaluation of our game is needed before if it has any chance of growing. Wood is in charge and therefore has to take responsibility and deserves 90% of the critism he attracts but chairmen etc have got to have a look at themselves too and start making decisions based on strengthing the game and not just the bank balance.

So how then?

How about putting 20 of them out on season long loans to a 10 team , full time, highly competitive, very intense competition with P and R at both ends of it, then a ' draft ' system at the end of every year with fixed prices for any players not wanted by their original club?

Really even loosing all those games. Now thats crazy. The salary cap was a good idea when it came out and a club that brings in a certain amount of money should be able to spend a percentage of it in the perfect cap regime. Just putting a cap where certain clubs will struggle with it is bonkers. Every club should only be allowed to spend what they can afford and nothing more. Just like the RFL said it would be.

How do you now if a payer is ready or not, is it because the coach says so, i have seen some very good talent not given the chance and never see Super League rugby, they end up playing in the Championship, or totally disperse from the game its pathetic, , clubs pay massive amounts of money on so called big named Aus & NZ players, they have a crap season and all the coaches say is there just settling in, if ALL the clubs had to have a set number of there academy players in the first team squad what do you loose, if 50% of the academy players brought through to SL made the grade it would be worth it, its only the same as doing what some clubs do, by flooding the team with foreigner's and hoping that there good enough, we have had years of Super League now so how long have academy players got to wait before there given a chance to prove there ready, we were supposed to be brining youth through and not relying on over paid foreigner's . But for some clubs its always easier to buy, rather than produce there hone players

Simple, licencing would take away the ' Fear ' factor we were told, coaches and BOD s would not need to chase Aussies and Kiwi s, we were told , and as we non believers said ' bollox', coaches wont risk their jobs and club officials wouldnt risk the wrath of their fans to benifit the game, so who was right?

Its human nature, look after yourself, sod the rest, cheat if you have to, anything as long as you win, be that salary cap fiddles, dodgy visa s, off shore payments, anything as long as you get the results, even cheat on the pitch if you have to

Some supporter's will just say were is the proof, there the ones with blinkers on, all the teams have got the stability of three years so why wont they just do what is best for the game, some players don't get enough field time, instead of having the squad of 25 they have more than they can quota for so the talent stays at the top 4 & 5 clubs if they get Cort breaking the salary cap they should loose funding, if they have more players than they can fit under the cap they need to be allocated to other clubs, & not duel reg
