Quote: Bilko "That's it. The intensity being the big thing. The regular season doesn't matter one bit towards the end goal anymore.'"


Agree entirely, as someone who likes both football and Rugby League its now getting to be quite an easy choice as to what to spend money on. Although i did purchase a half season ticket this season, I wish i hadnt as i had no money left to spend on the playoffs. The best games i got for my half season ticket were the Bradford and Saints ones, both we lost having only 12 men. The other games Salford, Hull, Cas and Widnes were either big wins, or games that we played awful but still won. That shouldnt be the case in the league, you should get punished for not playing well.

At the moment i cant see myself going to any of the 27 regular season games next season, I will save money for the cups and playoffs and spend the rest of my money on watching my football team, who compete in a league where every match matters and where if you dont turn up, you will get beat 9 times out of 10.

I hope the RFL/Super League take note of some of the comments. I dont personally know how it can be changed but get rid of the current playoff format for sure. If we have to have 8 teams then make it 1v8, 2v7 etc and stop this ridiculous 2nd chance thing. At the moment us and Saints lose a game but dont get a 2nd chance but Wire do? I would go 6 team playoff system like the NFL use, top 2 get a bye with 3v6 and 4v5 in Week 1. Then you can have the stupid clubcall thing or just have Team 1 v lowest placed team left in week 2.

On a personal note, i enjoy reading your comments on Twitter Bilko and hope they wont stop next season icon_smile.gif

Do you not think that it makes to much sense?

Agreed in principal but the powers that be still want 2 major club finals thus the GF will stay as we know it.

The problem with a 12 team super league would be only 11 home games for each club, i believe most club chairman wanted the guarantee of 13 games for revenue reasons

The CC rounds need to be closer together (no pre season games)with a June final,i.e
4th rd 1st wk in April
5th rd 3rd wk in April
6th rd 1st wk in May
SF 3rd wk in May
Final in June.

Therefore break of 10-12 weeks to play offs

No Magic Weekend

Play Offs
The league leaders to be given credibility (cash incentive and direct access to the GF) 2nd place to 5th place straight knockout, downside the LL will have a 2 week break to the GF.
All challenge cup & play off games ..£10 for adults - £5 for juniors.

The world cup challenge at the end of the season between the top two clubs from either side
LL & GF winners if same the CC winners, the Aussies will choose their own.

Return of the tours if room can be accommodated in the schedule

Too cheap. You're trying to devalue the spectacle .
