The easy solution will be to increase SL to 14 teams with no relegation this season.

Gets rid of the loop fixtures for a start.

TBF to Agar he’s just a front man, the team selections, substitutions, tactics still look very similar to the back end of last year when Lowes was “Head Coach” under Sinfield. You only have to see that Sinfield has sat right next to Agar every single game whereas he didn’t with Furner to work out that Sinfield is calling the shots. Furner getting sacked because of a breakdown in his relationship with Sinfield....aka Furner wouldn’t put up with Sinfield trying to run things.

Mixed feelings... Of course the bigger setups are VERY important to SL, but they would laugh their c0cks off if we were relegated...

Super League needs Leeds (and Wigan etc.)

It would be funny for a week or two. But with the Sky deal looming, losing Leeds would likely mean lower attendances, lower viewing figures and therefore lower funding. We’d soon stop laughing when we couldn’t afford to keep our best players (which we already struggle to do).

I get your sentiment on this and whilst I agree that big footy clubs like Utd don't have a given right to success on pitch, they do have claims to wanting a bigger share of the financial pie.

Quite simply you lose a big team and everyone suffers. Take someone like myself who isn't really a footy fan, but I will tune in for the big game i.e Utd Vs Liverpool etc. Casual fans like me that push ratings up by watching the big games drive the £££ on the TV deals with sky.

I know loads of people who aren't RL fans, but they will watch the big matches on a Friday night or over Easter. SL imo can't afford to lose 6 games or so that would be Leeds Vs another top team.

One thing they can't do is change the rules mid season. If Leeds finish bottom they should go down (and it would be funny if nothing else to see Sinfield's face!) but my preference would be we go to 14 teams in 2021. Would be good timing for a potential TV deal.

they bring nothing to away grounds especially in Lancashire their travelling support is awful for a big club

But have the biggest social media following of any rugby league club in the world. It’s not all about away attendances, Leeds do bring a lot to the league, love them or hate them. (I hate them).

who cares about how many social media followers they have really? What do they bring to the league ? Think every one secretly is chuckling at them at the moment they certainly were on wish fm and that was just the saints commentary guys

I am outdated !! Social media been there done it don't use it anymore I'm too old

Also with all that social media support where are they every week for Leeds atm? Glory hunters spring to mind

Can't wait for Leeds to finish bottom and see all the excuses from their arrogant fans (not all of their fans), It will be comedy gold, Then the RFL can swoop in and announce they won't be relegated as they are expanding SL to 14 teams. They will be safe I have no doubt but the stigma of finishing bottom and getting saved from relegation will be a gift that keeps on giving for many a season

Could say the same for us. I despise Leeds but I fully respect what they bring to the competition and success they’ve had. I really believe the competition needs Wigan, Saints and Leeds.

For the sensible posters that realise what SL would be like without the Rhinos in it

For the fans that want the Rhinos relegated....Be careful what you wish for

Besides we're not down yet!

I love the rivalries that we have with Wigan,Saints,Warrington,Hull FC etc but I miss most the big derby crowds and games against the Bulls when most of our games had 20,000 fans in the grounds both home and away,and look how worse SL is without the Bulls in it

Unless we get a vastly inflated Sky TV deal next time round which makes the competing clubs totally irrelevant (Which won't happen) then IMO we need the big clubs in SL,If only so you could keep your hatred up of them, like I did when you sent Cas down and I was glad that I could carry on hating Wigan
