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. |
