| The 14 consists of South France Aussies and we have North Wales Aussies. Add Toulouse, Leigh, Fax, Widnes, Fev and Barrow for your 20. Drop Cas, Wakey, Salford and HKR into the 6 and you have a gap that is breachable in year 1, as long as you know in April/May at latest.

| Quote Starbug="Starbug"Quite possibly , maybe clubs like
Warrington Wizards
Leigh East
Bramley
Huddersfield Underbank
Siddall
East hull
, Can you see a ' trend ' developing here , that might be a problem for some ?'"
I agree Starbug, completely.
If that's the case then so be it.
We keep hearing there's great amateur links around the country, if so then these areas will beat those sides.
If Bramley draw bigger support than Hunslet then they replace or add to the Chp. For me the Chp would also be franchised and so this club would have to show they could really add something to the league. They could be promoted at any time and any club winning the national title would have the right to apply.

What has that got to do with anything ?
This is what you posted
Quote Dicohave one national amateur competition where the region =#FF0000winners =#4000FFcompete in the final, who can =#40BF00then apply to join the pro ranks'"
Winners , ie ' on the pitch '
In the final , who get there by being the best ' on the pitch '
We already have two ' national ' amatuer comps , and as far as I can remember , heartland clubs have contested all the recent relative finals
It doesn't work , only one thing will expand the game at pro/semipro level , money , money provided and administrated by the governing body and its member clubs

| Ahh I said the winners could apply to join what would be a franchised Chp.
They would have to show that they could be sustainable at that level which is why I brought crowds into it old boy.
We dont want two national conferences we want regional comps with national finals.

But franchising is not working and is an anathaema to the UK sporting public at whatever sport.
Pro RL is in a hole and franchising the Championship would make that hole bigger. The bigger the hole the more difficulty in getting out.
Why not introduce franchising to footie ? Why no European League instead of a European footie cup comp ?
Why are Blackpool FC or Wigan or Bolton in the premiership ? Would they be if the FA had introduced franchising ? And would footie be better or worse with franchising do you think ? Ask a footie fan.

So you are suggesting that a club playing in a totally inferior competition could qualify to apply for the Championships by winning one match ?
How do you judge ' sustainable ' when a club is at amatuer level ? ie it is not actually paying its players or charging very much if anything for admission ?
This club then has to jump to paying a squad of players and then suddenly all the other associated costs
Think again , the jump from amatuer to a single Championship is bigger than a jump from the Championship to SL
We need more clubs at semi pro level so you can run two tiers which then flattens out the hill between amatuer and SL

[uWell.. yes, if they won through the finals series. If they were so inferior they wouldnt win. period.[/u

[uIts a bit of guesswork but its easier than throwing a new area into SL, as you said in other places with that money you could set up 4 or 5 semi pro clubs[/u
This club then has to jump to paying a squad of players and then suddenly all the other associated costs
[uWell yes, they could even pay players 'expenses' in the national championships if they wanted, with an aim to moving up in future. The pressure wouldnt be on them to do a Blackpool though at this level[/u
Think again , the jump from amatuer to a single Championship is bigger than a jump from the Championship to SL
[uYou think so? I cant say I know the ins and outs[/u
We need more clubs at semi pro level so you can run two tiers which then flattens out the hill between amatuer and SL
[uI agree and I propose this is how we go about it. It may work, it might well not but things are dying on their ar$e at the moment[/u'"

Well I thought it was well known that Claudius was more of a Cluedo man.
