| what teams would you have?
How many?
What rule changes?
anything?
1 bulls
2 cas
3 catalan
4 giants
5 fc
6 kr
7 rhinos
8 saints
9 wakey
10 reds
11 broncos
12 wire
13 wigan
14 widnes
15 new london club?
16 Toulouse
17 Halifax
18 Leigh
19 featherstone
20 sheffield
21 newcastle team
22 another manchester team?
video ref decisions would allow to rule out forward passes.
all clubs in super league who are new get improvements made to stadiums.
i know its a lot of teams but is only way to expand the game really.

Los Angeles Leviathons
San Francisco Scimitars
Benidorm Blue Socks
What we need to add to the franchising system is extremely rich people. So I would make it mandatory that every franchise application was backed by a Sheikh or a trillionaire. Salary cap would be £4bn per year and it would be marketed properly and hype-machined into the big time.

21 newcastle team failed once, why do you think it would work a second time
22 another manchester team? Salford is enough for Manchester

| hmmmmm could do an nfl style conference ie
nw conf
wire
wigan
saints
leigh
widnes
yorkshire 1
leeds
bradford
hudds
halifax
sheffield
yorkshire 2
hull fc
hull kr
castleford
featherstone
wakey
outside
salford
broncos
catalans
toulouse
skolars
top 3 from each league go through to the playoffs that are drawn randomly but 1st places are seeded and miss the first round ie
1st round could have
wigan vs bradford
hull kr vs broncos
saints vs hudds
cas vs cats
say the winners are wigan, hull kr, saints and cats they go into the hat for next round of
wire vs hull kr
wigan vs leeds
salford vs hull fc
saints vs cats
then onto semis then grand final

On what basis can Cas, Wakey + Salford be dumped in the division BELOW London? can't be based on on-field performance
Have you made up Cardiff/Swansea by magic or are you referring to South Wales Scorpions?

So the derby games get milked to death even more and we have 4 groups of completely disproportionate quality (compare NW pool with outside + Yorks 2 pools)
