T20, the short form of cricket is still longer than a game of league. 9s has a place, but I'm not sure its going to achieve what it's advocates say. League matches aren't too long they fit nicely in an evening if needed

Ref bottled that. Should've been red.

That's one of my favourite structures I've seen for a small world cup - I think a fairly balanced tournament is key for credibility. Though I'm not sure thw odd blowout is worth binning the smaller nations.

Brilliant game. Kind of match that sets a tournament alight

How does 23 games work with 10 teams? Home and away for 10 sides is 18 games, 1 neutral would give 19...

One thing I'd like to see is getting a super league team (probably Wigan or leeds) on a documentary like all or nothing. It's the kind of platform that would attract a different group of viewers.

Worth remembering when you say the aj bell is the next step for sale that their preferred option was to build a new stadium in sale, which they couldn't get planning permission for. The aj bell isn't a bad stadium, but imo the problems with it stem from how difficult it is to get to by public transport. I've not been to Moor Lane, but if it's more accessible for Salford fans, it could be worth the downgrade in stadium. A worry is that salford haven't been able to afford the rent at the aj bell, and the proposed solution seems to include the council owning Moor Lane and Salford renting.
