Great idea but what about the final round rather than the 1st to give more notice and the shield could be presented at the event also |

... I'm sure you wouldn't be saying that if our last home game of the season was in Newcastle, with 2 points needed to come top.
It's supposed to be a spectator sport, not everyone wants to travel 250 miles to watch a home match.
I'd scrap magic weekend, if nothing else it gives some teams an advantage by playing weaker teams 3 times.

The first weekend is set in stone though date wise, so the weekend could be planned as per now with travel and accommodation. The only thing you wouldn't know is the opposition. |

True, but you wouldn't know which day. But it's a good idea if it can be worked out. Got to be worth a try |

Teams would also know what sort of result they needed - in the last match they would already be aware of all the results of their rivals.
It sounds more like the sort of solution the RFL will come up with.

| Maybe Shetland RLFC is on the horizon.....
Quote The Rugby Football League is willing to consider the relocation of Super League teams who wish to move from their current base.
According to the governing body's general manager Mark Foster, any Super League sides aiming to move from their location for the 'good of the game' will be considered.'" |

I like the idea BUT it won't happen at a football ground. No team would allow seven RL games play on the pitch at the start of their season. Cardiff or Murrayfield may be an option though.
Anybody fancy Dublin? |

True, I forget about that as I go for the weekend regardless

I'd prefer a return to 14 teams.
I wouldn't like a return to licensing.
I'd like to see a continuation in some form of "The Qualifiers" but not in a Middle 8s form. A playoff series between the bottom SL and top Championship clubs for 1-3 SL spots. If you have a Championship GF for one guaranteed spot, you could also keep the MPG for a guaranteed relegation battle. Win-win with two big events.
Top 7 playoff (League leaders get a bye to the semis).
I'd like to see Magic Weekend become the 6th round of the Challenge Cup (the round the top 8 SL clubs enter). Combined, these 8 games only got any 28k last year. That's less than half of what Magic Weekend gets. Would sort out the Magic Weekend and help the Challenge Cup too.

I'd imagine that Magic Weekend is in the Sky contract, and if a small club is in the draw they'll want the full benefit of home advantage, surely? |
