The RFL drew this paper up after consultations with SL Clubs.
Then the clubs voted against it bar Wigan.
So what is the difference between what was discussed then drawn up in the proposals. Have the RFL overstepped themselves or have the clubs backed out after verbally agreeing with the proposals.

Small clubs voting to stay small

Wholly true Ted, BUT those consultations were (as usual) with ONLY SOME of the SL Clubs!!!!

The world should know if you also support those cheats Manchester Arabia.

More needs to be done to enable those who are willing and able to increase their financial contributions for the benefit of their clubs and players. If the rest want to stay small then so be it but we shouldn't close the door on ambition.

With that said if there hasn't been the requisite consultation period then we can't expect these changes to be accepted. And why should the clubs be proposing anything? If we had an effective governing body they should be driving the changes but as ever they make a mess of it.

i think most fans are in agreeance that the SC is not fit for purpose, but equally something like this doesnt help the game / look at all

if they had said, there has been a proposal for discussion, and it was being taken away, with the option that the points could be approved, rejected or amended, then it would have been better taken than, it looks like Wigan want to make changes, and no other clubs are interested, and thus rejected it
