Why change the format, 14 teams in the league is just fine.

Quote: bloomers "Just asked on VT about another part of the article, suggesting one club will definitely be promoted. How would that fit with licencing criteria if all current clubs scored higher than them?'"



The way I see it, the Championship club wouldn't have to 'outscore' a SL club. With the A, B and C grading system, the RFL could just decide that 1 or more C graded clubs will not get their licence re-newed because of ................ (fill in the blanks). The gap left would then be filled by 1 or more Championship clubs.

Obviously the strength of the clubs outside SL would dictate whether the RFL would choose to enforce any previous warnings given and actually kick out a current SL club. Lets face it, had the RFL wanted to they COULD have chosen to kick out a number of SL clubs last time round but chose not to. For example, if the RFL want both Widnes and Toulouse in next time round, the RFL might turn round and say Salford and Wakey have lost their licence because the RFL are not satisfied regarding development of a new stadium. However, if the RFL just want say Widnes, then Salford might still get the boot, but they might justify keeping Wakey in by commenting on efforts made to get the new ground and also 1st team and youth development. In short whatever the RFL want, they will spin it so it looks as though they are giving honest and genuine reasons.

I thought all along that SL should be marking out a pathway over the next 10 to 20 years whereby it remains a 14 team comp and then expands into two 'regional' divisions from 2014. The teams play their 'regional' teams home and away and the two divisions come together for the CC and Play offs, not disimilar to how RL used to operate back in the day.

Two divisions means SL can accomodate more homelands and more expansionist clubs. So, initially something like;

'East'
Wakey, Cas, Leeds, Bradford, Hudds, Hull, Rovers, Quins, Fax, UK expansion team, x2 French
'West'
Wigan, Saints, Wire, Widnes, Salford, Cru, Cumbria, Leigh, Manchester (or Oldham/Swinton), UK expansion team, x2French

I think part of the plan would be to have a number of french teams in the comp for a period, but say that by 2018-2020 the french teamss have to break away and form their own 8-12 team comp, which includes a Barca and northern Italian team. Again, the three divisons come together for CC and play off series. The empty east and west places would be filled by homeland or more expansionist teams.

I always wonder about a seperate round robin P&O sponsored Cup between Hull, Rovers and a new Amsterdam team as well. Holland seems like possibly fertile grounds for the game and could lead to moves in Germany. Considering the crowds Germany got for American Football I reckon RL would go down well there. I reckon, eventually SL should scrap Magic weekend and instead send teams off to places for similar round robin tournaments. For example, Irish connections; Salford, Manchester and Belfast, Saints, Widnes and Dublin. Or, how good would Wakey, Cas and Munich or Moscow be??

Ahh, one can only dream.
