I appreciate there are a lot of technicalities to sort out and not knowing how many games you are paying for will be an issue for some, although there could be a way around this by offering some sort of voucher to attend a free away game in the later part of the season (I know not everyone can travel away) but at the end of the day if you are finishing outside of the 8 you've probably had a lousy season, been stuffed by the "good" teams and possibly had nothing to play for the last month of the season.
This way at the end of the season even the poorer teams, at least theoretically, get a series of close games that they actually have a chance of winning and most definitely have something to play for.
I see the biggest issue being if the disparity between the 4 superleague teams and the 4 championship teams is so vast that the outcome is a foregone conclusion.
In my opinion as a solution the restructure is a long way from perfect but also is a long way from the disaster that many people are suggesting it is, time will tell I suppose

It does indeed, and then their is a secondary cap, designed for players in the academy to be brought through and be able to play first team without affecting cap rules. I believe the current amount is 75,000 for the secondary cap but I may be wrong on that, I'd need to check.

The home grown cap cap isn't designed to aid particularly to build squads with (beyond the norm) merely help with the retention of the likes of tomkins and graham. It should be quite successful hopefully.

I'd forgotten about that one. Just had a look at the rules again, but all the references to first and second tier liabilities has melted my brain.

It's up to clubs to be sensible. I'm not a fan of the RFL controlling everything clubs do. Risk is a part of sport. If we sanitise things too much, we won't attract pioneers.

would like to see any increase in cap money only allowed to be spent to devolp home grown talent
