I can't see a lot wrong with this. We must have P & R between the two SL levels and into and out of the two SL levels. That gives the teams in level two the chance to improve their quality so that they can compete in level one - the same goes for the league below the SL, they should have access too. Plus it will bring back the spice of relegation battles and give teams at the bottom as well as the top something to play for all season, instead of going through the motions in some games but targeting others against local rivals. Plus hopefully we'd never repeat the travesty of a team going through a whole season with nothing to play for because they already knew they were promoted.

Rugby League´s fundamental problem in this country is the governing bodies fixation with the internatinal game, decisions are made with the sole intention of closing the gap with Australia, just run the game for the benefit of the domestic competition, if that means lower caps and a restructuring so be it.



But it´s time to start making decisions for the good of the domestic game and not with a view to closing the gap with Australia.

Do some of you realise what it is like with only 10 teams and having just 9 meaningful home fixtures per season? Ask the fans of Championship 1 what they think of 10 team leagues or better still ask the fans who have stopped going to watch because of the big gaps between home games?



Challenge Cup matches would have been used to fill the gaps for SL clubs but as we have seen lately they don't particularly attract many fans?

Why not have this league and play everyone once and stop English players being counted on salary cap

...because you'd have mass bankruptcies and regular cricket scores? Just a thought.

Someone else who gets it.

A 10 team top flight may just increase the intensity of some of the weekly games but what does it do to the rest of the league(s).

4 teams drop out of SL and another raft of support will drift from the game at each of those 4 clubs.

Pressumably, 4 teams would also be "demoted" from the championship and yet more fans will be hacked off

and then in a few years time, once a new pecking order has been eastablished in the new Super Super League,

we can jettison the two bottom clubs for not being competetive.

Great plan, just what the fans really want.

I agree why don't we fix what we have and then look to put more teams in not less

You would have more than 9 home fixtures, thats just current RFL strategy to kill off lower leagues.



26 games (13 Home) plus Magic and then play offs.

so how are you expecting we have 26 games plus MM with 10 teams in a fair way?

Get it done

Hang on, isn't this argument usually rolled out when lower placed teams get [ihammered [/iby higher placed teams? The Fev performances show that SL could support competitive games between 16 teams, surely?? Not that that's the argument I'm making. I'd be more inclined to suggest solitary scorelines shouldn't lead to knee-jerk reactions.

Play each other 3 times?
