What do we reckon? increase number of SL teams from next season? We need that community stadium built and we'll be ok.

Up the Trin

Surely we don't have an option over whether to accommodate expansion into the Americas and so we must embrace the opportunity. If we are coming to the point where there are a few French teams able to achieve the right standard and we have teams from US & Canada and possibly also Dublin plus a London and Midlands club then the way forward must be to split Superleague into European (ESL) and Northern hemisphere (NSL). European teams will qualify for both SL's so there will be space to accommodate all who wish to be involved by setting the league sizes accordingly. The Superleague champions would be the winners of ESL v NSL.

The World Cup has also shown us the strength of the nations surrounding Australia so why not expand the theory and have Oceania (OSL) consisting of nations and clubs from New Zealand, PNG and the islands while the NRL continues as it is without the Warriors. The WCC would then be a play off between the 4 winners worldwide.

All it takes is a little determination and a lot of money.

The "new SL structure" is likely to be about how the game's management is structured, rather than about how the leagues are made up.

Maybe the extra fixture at magic weekend is a hint.

Agree on increasing number of teams, but not the teams involved in this fixture.

Agree. To make the move to 14 teams would potentially need extra funding from SKY and that isn't up for negotiation for another few years. That is unless they renegotiate the amount they pay to allow 14 teams to get paid the same, which would be what under £4m. It all depends on how much value SKY/RFL see in having those extra sides. That extra game for Magic does make you wonder otherwise though. They may be testing the water to see how well a Toronto v Toulouse game would be received. That'll put a few noses out of joint from the rest of Championship sides I bet.

Lets hope it's either the 1st or last game of the day. We can all show them what we think by giving the game a miss.
