All teams wanted a reduction to 12 & the return of P&R.

After the initial reduction to 12, the 12x8 structure favours SL teams staying in SL whereas instant P&R would mean they spend a season out of SL if they finish bottom. Being able to finish bottom of the league and still be odds on to stay in SL the next season is very much in their best interests.

Relegation in the past has meant all players contract are void and cancelled.
I think this will apply to this season but we've not been advised if this will continue from 2015.
I just can't understand why a club would vote for relegation knowing half their staff will be made redundent.

I'd guess because the game's stagnating with the same teams not competing in SL, champ teams aren't getting a fair crack at the whip which in turn means that the championship has no motivation. Also it seems the teams want a larger portion of funding because there isn't enough to go around 14 teams, though the RFL and presumably at least some clubs would like some of that spread to the championship to help promote competition. Oh, and the many meaningless games for bottom of the league clubs & having nothing to play for.

Warrington
St Helens
Wigan

Leeds, Catalan and Hudsersfield in any order

Hull FC and Salford to make up the 8

Hull KR, Cas and Widnes in the safe towards end of season group

Bradford, Wakefield to fight it out to stay up

London bottom

Gary Hetherington through his wife and James rule controll wakeys and the widnes vote , London and Bradford are in the debt of the rfl so another couple of yes votes

Salford will self destruct by mid season, Hock will be gone Morley injured and Chase having a hissy fit, can see them in the bottom 4 yet again.

Can see the league being in the same 1-5, 6-9, 10-14 groups as last year.

Your going to eat your words son.

You think. They beat an understrength Leigh 26-16. Although you think they didn't get out of first gear. Seeing as its Salfords first outing how do you you know what is 4th gear.

Mate you could hardly get out of your own half at times, only penalties helped you when you did the weather evened the game up massively Aswel. Anyway everyone can have their own opinions but if you think Leigh are one of the favs for the championship playing a completely new team without their first choice front row and first choice strike player you did pretty well not to be on the end of a hiding. It's only a friendly anyway matches like this are more used like training sessions for SL teams.

Gonna stick my neck out here and say
Saints - Leeds grand final.

Top four in no order
saints, Leeds, Huddersfield, Warrington

Although it's a close call between Wigan/Warrington

maybe, time will tell but think the dressing room has disharmony written all over it.
