Quote: wrencat1873 "Why do you want to give the top 6 in the Championship a shot at promotion ?
I'm ok with the top 2 having a play off but, lets just go back to 1 up 1 down or 2 up 2 down.

Rather than scrap "Magic", why not get back to it's original purpose of taking RL to new areas.
I know this isn't as convenient for some that go to the Etihad but, it may just spread the gospel, even if it's just a small amount and moving it around should help the RL "publicity machine"
he reason for 6 was simply to make the play offs work. Which in my opinion gives more emphasis on the league below. In hindsight a top 4 play off would be best. I don't think 1 up 1 down improves anything anythings if you take this year the leagues would have been over by may. And this system is open to clubs spending unwisely in trying to achieve the treasured spot put clubs in more financiAl peril. Whatever criticisms people have of the middle 8's (and there anythingschieve re w few), it has bought the championship more into focus.

I'd happily go with your idea of the magic weekend. But given most grounds hold about 30,000 (which in many ways would be ideal). And the rfl prefer bigger stadiums the problems in many of these cities being able to hold it must be in question.

Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "Any future plan for Super League must find a mechanism to admit New York and other north American and French teams if their bids (business plans) are deemed credible.

An M62 first policy, with no room for more north American and French clubs, guarantees the demise of rugby league in the northern hemisphere.'"

What are France's plans for RL, you have to admit that if you want to saturate SL with superstar laden French teams it isnt really saying much for your adopted country in terms of expanding the sport there.

Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "14 team league without promotion and relegation. Championship and Overseas clubs can apply to be added to Super League, or replace any existing clubs not meeting certain criteria.'"

In the words of good old Stevo; “it’s as simple as that”!

And it really is. I don’t know why the RFL make it so difficult.

Well it would be interesting to see the criteria, because based on anything like the previous franchise system I wouldn't think we have 14 acceptable teams

Until the game gets on its feet properly why not.
Rugby Union has no issues with multinational competitions only fickle RL types with head in sand syndrome.
