Well as we all know the licences are changing again this year. So we will definitely have at least one Championship team joining us due to an RFL rule.

It's odds on to be Widnes or Halifax. But will the RFL get rid of a team or more or will they simply just expand the league.

If they were to expand it, it would be likely for it to go to 16 teams so the Magic Weekend would still work and so there are no byes.

Personally I think they should get rid of a team and promote another. Because if you add another team or 2 then you end up with 28 or 30 games per season. If they are to expand the league then surely 16 teams should be the limit. Otherwise we are going to have wide score ranges with top of the table teams beating the bottom by 60 odd points. Not to mention the large amount of games that would have to be fit into the tight schedule we have already.

But what do you guys think should happen?

Crusaders and Quins out. Halifax and Widnes in.

Warrington out, they've had long enough.

Widnes in.

<Legs it>

I'd be tempted to leave Crusaders in for now and just get rid of Harlequins.

I'd like to see Widnes in to replace them.

It was announced a week or so back that the SL would be remaining at 14 teams.

Cas out & Widnes in!

Cas is just a small town in the suburbs of the City of Wakefield, they have token planning permission pending but no money to build a stadium, the only juniors they have are cast off from Wakefields Academy (Westerman, Owen, Milner etc..), they're not a traditional club having only been around for a few decades as compared with the mighty Trinity who've been around for almost a century and a half.













Come on, what did you expect when you started this thread?

Wakefield are out, I can't see anyone else leaving.

Widnes will come in.

I'd prefer a Cumbrian side but is their bid strong enough?

Oh and relocate hkr to Sheffield.

Think it's time Quins left. There attendences are poor and can't see rugby league successful in London. Maybe if both London clubs merged it might stand the teeniest tinyest chance. Oh and fax in please so the giants can have a proper derby.

or Hull FC to sydney?

I like this thread,not seen anything like it before.Very original.
