I’m a cricket fan as well as Rugby League and I’d rather do what we’re doing. The Bob Willis trophy feels like a bunch of friendlies imo and whilst Superleague isn’t being played in its traditional form, it feels far more competitive and much closer to the norm.

I’ve found from a personal point of view the opposite while no player goes through the motions I don’t feel there’s the same intensity as normal season,on another note I’m fast losing interest in the sport,maybe it’s just a reaction to the whole Covid situation I don’t m ow but this season,since the restart hasn’t been the same

Who sponsors and televises this other competition? How do we find time to play the games without being able to count what we played pre-COVID? How do we afford to play it without the Sky TV money from Super League games? In fact would we owe Sky money for not fulfilling our contract to provide Super League games despite being in a position to play? Plus obviously fans would be rightly p*ssed off that they had paid to watch Super League games which we subsequently decide don't count.
You can't just hastily arrange another competition and assume that sponsors, broadcasters and fans would just all fall into line. Especially if the point would be that the other comp wouldn't be as prestigious as Super League.

I don't think Sky would care as long as they have some RL to show.
Like I say, I understand the need to play out the season (or some form of season) but whether you see them that way or not the winners of this percentage based, some played some didn't farce will be the SL Champions with the same recognition as we got in 2018

| I think the proposals are fine, and sensible in the circumstances. And what NK said abut covid sanctions compared to the disciplinary. This year, it's all about just keeping the show on the road.

This. We have to be realistic, games will be postponed and some teams will be unable to fulfil all their fixtures. This allows us, almost makes it a certainty that we will be able to finish the season and someone will be crowned champions. That in itself will be an achievement.

| With the number of players at each club and no reserve or academy leagues, I fail to see how any of the eleven clubs cannot complete the twenty games.
