Neither is The Grand Final set up (Cas utterly dominant last season, lost their final fixture, Leeds champs). RL, like life, ain't fair. Suppose we'll find out when we find out.

They need to get a system and stick with it, this needs to be in place for a minimum of 10 years to really evaluate!

It might get a little boring with teams yoyo'ing, like Hull KR, Widnes etc...

I'd rather see a 14 / 15 team Super League with 26 / 28 matches, with 2 up 2 down, but just my opinion.'"


I agree that the team who finishes top goes up,i would also say that the promoted team get's a years grace in order to establish themselves.

Whatever the system will be,10 years might be too long. If it isn't working say after 4/5 years, it will need to be looked at again.

Quote: atomic "Why?'"



Funding will be big as to get to the top in this division you normally have to dip your hand into your pocket. We can't keep expecting DB to foot the bill all the time. I've mixed emotions about the proposed new layout but at least promotion and relegation is still in place. I feel there isn't enough quality players in the English game to do a 14 team Super League with a two up two down system.

Until we make reserves compulsory we will struggle because a lot of lads are not ready to step up at 18 so clubs just release them and these lads get disillusioned and pack the game in but clubs having a reserves they can wait and see how they develop and I'm sure a lot more will break through

If I was running the game I'd just run it nice and simple, 2 up 2 down, winner of the league wins the Super League, 1st & 2nd place play off at old Trafford in a final. I'd have a 14 team Super League and Championship like followsSuper Legaue

St Helens
Wigan
Wire
Castleford
Hull FC
Wakefield
Leeds
Huddersfield
Catalans
Salford
Hull KR
Widnes
Toronto
Tolouse

Championship

Fev
Halifax
London
Leigh
Batley
Barrow
Dewsbury
Sheffield
Swinton
Rochdale
Bradford
York
Oldham
Doncaster

League 1

Hunslet
Keightly
Workington
Whitehaven
Newcastle
North Wales
London Skolars
Coventry
Hemel
West Wales
New York?
Montreal?
Irish Team?
Scottish team?


I think there is enough quaility now to have a 14, 15, 16 team Super League, but obviously Wigan / Saints want to keep the money for themselves.

Why would a Leigh supporter not want Leigh in super league but have 3 team that dont even come from our country in there as well as having Salford who have no fans and are struggling financially

Answer: Because it is what would be best for the game.

According to BBC no ''binding decisions'' have been made to competition structure for next season, the Rugby Football League has said, in light of comments by new Super League chief executive Robert Elstone. ''These discussions are still ongoing,'' the RFL statement read.

I just copied the current league standings below you spanner! its only hypothetical.

At the moment Leigh are 6th, making them the 18th best team in the country. If we had a 14 team super league, they would be in the lower half.

Some people icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Well that seems like an embarrassing start for the chap - seems to have a decent background, so why on earth did he come out with that until it was formalised and agreed

Could be dead man walking almost before he starts if he's not careful
