Sorry for not replying sooner, the idiot troll "orangeman (etc)" above put me off bothering...................

It will be interesting to see if the loss of TV money has any great effect at the top. Certainly the lower divisions have taken a big hit, and you can expect Superleague to sacrifice the lower clubs for the top clubs all day long.

Restructure at the top? No. No league one in a year or two - maybe..........

Hope your clubs ground improvements give a new impetus to the club........

Idiot? Troll?
My my Donnyboy.....you don't half fit right into the stereotypical flat cap northern monkey bracket.....anything outside your bus-pass not to be trusted.
As a southern fan of RL, who has lamented the decline of RL as a tie 1 sport, I find it incredulous that moth eaten attitudes like yours still persist....Superleague to your average sports fan in England now is Women's Soccer, whilst there's still only 1 rugby code that attracts bumper viewing figures come Feb/March.....but you'd be happy so long as you can get home from an away game in time for your supper

Poor Donnyman, he’s having a really hard time, 2 x french teams in super league and Catalan have a new Tv deal.

Its people like him with his constantly calling everyone a troll who does not fit their agenda that have made killed this forum and turned it into the equivalent of the BDO Darts.

Your not him as well are you

10 clubs will be boring, why do I or any other punter want to see Wire play Castleford or Hull KR 3 times a season (4 if there's a CC fixture, 5 if we make the playoffs and happen to meet them)?

No offence to those clubs, I could have picked any two.

Most exciting season I remember had 16 teams in it. Why not bring back the Featherstones, the Leighs, the Sheffields and so on and create some variety? I've heard the argument about there not being enough quality players, give them a few years in the top flight and they'd compete.

There isnt enough money in the game for a 16 team division.

I think nearly all fans will agree with you here, but owners of the SL clubs won't want to share the reduced SKY money more ways. Leigh and Featherstone would be great additions both clubs are well backed and work very hard year on year at trying to get into/established in Superleague. Must go before you know who turns up again.....

Enjoy the new season...........

So, the self appointed troll hunter who has killed the forum gets called out and immediately incorrectly call out yet another poster, purely for a differing opinions....
It's a real shame, because there used to be real debate here....

I could have sworn that Leigh were in SL last season and Fev just needed to beat Toulouse on their own patch to secure a SL spot.
On a related issue, their game on Monday (Fev v Leigh) is going to be one of the most important games of the season.
It's hard to see too far beyond those two for the promotion spot.

It's early day yet, but those two would seem to be the safe bets. I expect both teams to lose games though and come the MPG, home advantage could play a major part, so consistency throughout the season will be key
Fev will play basic 5 + a kick big Mac rugby ....Leigh might be slightly less direct....2 contrasting styles and as I say, bot will lose to "other sides" this year.
