Quote: Slugger McBatt "If I take off my Trinity hat and put on my rugby league hat, I would go for a ten-team league and increase the salary cap. One of the problems we have at the moment is that the stars of the game frequently go to Aus; to test themselves against the best and for more money. Take away some of the cash incentive and then make the game better here, by being more competitive, and as a game we will produce more stars.

Let's be honest with ourselves

You mentioned they point it's about business and finance and not really about the development and participation in sport. Less games less teams I believe will kill the game off totally

On the other hand, a vibrant and exciting league that attracts spectators and sponsors and TV exposure will do that, in theory.

I don't know what the answer is, but whether we take part in the top or second league is in our hands.

Playing each other 3 times will lose the effect of a good derby match it will be boring.

Am I wrong but I read it as a 20 team SL in 2 divisions, so lower division would still be SL , also didn't they say that money differences between the 2 division's would less and that they would try to get a tv deal for the lower division? It would not be like going into the championship

It won’t take them long to make the top division a closed shop. If and we probably will go down I think the chance of getting promoted would be very slim

Exactly this and right now, Trinity would never gain promotion with the state of our facilities and any lingering chance of getting the ground improved would disappear, as there would be even less cash swilling around than now.
Many fans of those clubs that are "relegated" would walk away and the game shrinks further and faster.

How long would it be before the 10 clubs went to 8 ,6, 4, 2 and then none.

Wouldn’t it be funny in 23 if this crazy proposal goes through if Wigan Warrington or Leeds had an injury hit season and finished bottom 4! The rules would be very quickly reversed
How about less funding with clubs not wasting money on overseas dross like many have done since 1996 and instead develop young British talent

Strictly-speaking, a 1 in 10 chance, although I suspect we would be one of the bigger clubs in a lower league.

The reality is that whether we are in it is in our hands, no one else's. Are we saying it wouldn't be fair because we will finish eleventh? I can't wait for that season. It sounds super-exciting.

Provided they maintain promotion and relegation, someone has to come up. One year, it will be us. The real issue will arise when one of the favourite teams goes down. In fact, the yo-yo teams will be us, Salford, Leigh, Huddersfield, Cas and Toulouse.

As it stands, with our performances over the last three seasons, our "success" (if you can call it that) has depended on a weak side coming up. That doesn't exactly puts bums on seats either.

We have a SL squad of players experienced at playing regularly at this level. The two teams promoted for the majority of their squads will not therefore we must take this opportunity to strengthen the current squad even if it pushes our financial resources. We get one season to get this right because if we fail and are relegated we all know that the team will fracture and we will be back to square one.
I wonder if we would return to part time like MC suggested before the Bradford game. It is time to speculate to accumulate, you never know this might generate additional revenue with increased interest and support. It is not the time for prudence because we cannot fail and it is still in our hands which makes a change from previous threats of relegation.

Story in tomorrow’s RLExpress
Can they really want a 10 team SL?


Sky Sports is the driving force behind the proposal by the RFL to reorganise Super League from next season, League Express understands. The broadcaster, IN[/fimg]

Well we have a great Academy set up time to blood them and get some experience in the first team and build the strength in depth.

Effectively, I'm looking forward to see the resultant cannibalism as the 10 start to push for 8 and so on. To think dropping two teams is really going to make much of a difference to the quality of games.
