If we finish 8 th next season think they could b a new coaching set up with this owner's commitment .

The best team should go up, they clearly weren't the best this season.

Oh I missed that, when did they move there?

I think league leaders should go up, simple as, winning the league should get that reward. I'd still feel the same if it worked in our benefit from further down the table. It's just like how I'm still very promotion/relegation regardless of us going down this year.

Unfortunately that is now an out of date concept.

Best team is judged in a different way.

Stupid system that is at fault, we should be thankful they put Toulouse to bed in the semi final anyway. No doubt Fev would’ve blown the final against them & that would have made things even tighter with this IMG malarkey.

It appears that London have done away with both their scholarship and academy teams to save money. 70 odd kids they had on the books, this is terrible news IMO.

In an ideal world I would like to see the RFL fund the junior teams for non-heartland clubs, just not enough money to go around.

Without junior development, there is no future for the sport.
Getting kids into the sport (and keeping them there), is THE most important aspect of the game.
Without strong roots, the game will die.

London Broncos are restructuring their academy due to the fact that running an Academy gets you no IMG grading points.
The money saved can go to fund a Large TV screen in the Stadium which would gain Grading Points. Utter madness if you ask me.
It is being said that London Broncos may lose their SL status at the end of next season, However when the SL is expanded back to fourteen teams, London will be looked on favourably for promotion.

I havent checked but although it doesn't get you points, you can't have a grade A without one.
