Quote: jeffers#1 "Personally i think that we should have another cup competition and get rid of the magic weekend all together.As the only cup we can play for theses days is either challenge cup (end of august)or grand final trophy (beginning of oct).Which are both to the end of the season anyway. Say for example where you play at the beginning of the season.To get people interested prior to super league kick off. Going back pre super league we had the likes of John player trophy of the floodlit trophy (I know that we cant advertise alcohol or cigarettes now).We used to have a charity shield before the main season opener. Why dont we bring that back to life? Just my though. Anybody else agree/disagree ???'"
agree, i would bring back the county cups as a pre season thing, getting rid of the friendlies and having some silverware on offer in their place makes sense to me
