[quote="headhunter":lnxdgxk2]Union people are idiots. They almost universally accept that league is a better, faster game played by better athletes, yet for some reason they continue to disregard and belittle it. That game is tedious as hell from start to finish. If he'd ever played or even bothered to give more than a fleeting chance to league he would realise that the game is far more 'technical' than Union ever could be. Booting the ball into touch, scrummaging and forming rucks and mauls aren't areas that involve any skill, technique or mental capacity whatsoever. These are clumsy, outdated facets of the game that are also extremely uninteresting to watch and thus have to be defended in some way by people who are too prejudiced to see the truth.[/quote:lnxdgxk2]: |

EXACTLY!! Said this in other forums....the only way the Magic weekend makes sense is to have it as the first round after the split, so it leaves a balanced fixture list of 11 home / 11 away THEN 1 neutral / 3 home / 3 away. The RFL MUST do this!
Also if we move to this then this for me must be a 'play off SERIES' and we don't then convolute it further with play offs on top.
12 teams, play each other home and away. 7 round play off series - with each in top 8 playing twice and points from season carried through - Top 2 through to grand final
Second 8 play simply for top 4 spots for 'promotion' the following season - No grand final - Its farcical!
Still don't know what the bottom 8 play for - Seems pointless unless we look at relegating bottom two to the championship?

The vote for a 12 team league didn't have an opposing vote.
Why clubs like Wakey, London and Widnes voted for relegation is staggering. Especially Widnes. They voted for 2 down in 2005 then finished 2nd bottom and were relegated. To vote again for getting your club to be vulnerable for relegation is just daft!
If they survive then are in the bottom four in 2015 they will take a massive cash hit when they have three home games against Championship opposition rather than two games v SL clubs.
You do have to wonder what is going on at some of these clubs.

This is nothing new, it was in the proposal all along. |

Must've missed it - lost the will to live after the first couple of paragraphs |
