Rugby League can't become a top class sport in the UK with the way the game is currently run.
Super League is a failing competition.
We need to make it an ever lesser competition and go down the representative route instead.
We need to go into areas of Scotland, Wales and Ireland and build clubs and get into the Schools to build the game in those places. We need to create an annual 5 nations championships between the 4 home nations + France.
We also need to create an annual War of the roses 3 test series. Obviously we have problems of loyalty on the West of Pennines with that one but it must happen because it should.
The top players can make representive games their priority and play for their clubs when available.
A four year international calender should be as follows.
Year 1 Ashes series Great Britain vs Australia
Year 2 Tri nations series
Year 3 Ashes series Australia vs Great Britain
Year 4 World cup
Representative games are the only way forward. Seeing the best play against the best is what you need in any sporting competition.
