Not sure really, would need to talk with potential broadcasters and then sponsors. The mooted plan is take to play it over the bank holidays which arguably lowers the risk of a single big mid season event failing and losing a load of cash in one swoop. On the other hand a festival of rugby league, be it a Magic style ‘All Star esque’ showcase might be exactly the vehicle needed to give this format its best chance of success over here. There’s arguments to be made over player availability and enthusiasm from the clubs, but this would all come down to the initial point about how much it would be worth to sponsors/broadcasters.

Wollongong Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Integrate it as an important part of the season... over three days... groups of three based on current league position... 1 Superleague point for each game won... same for semi and final... further you go more SL points you accumulate find a lucrative sponsorships and the comp has double value.

Damien Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Any 9s will not work unless it has a proper place and all the top players playing. In a crowded calender I just can't see how this is going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would take something like that and some sort of cash injection to make it worth clubs giving up a game and to make it worth their while.

Yes, I agree, I wouldn’t launch the concept without TV and sponsorship onboard. That’d be the only way to get the clubs and players into it.

Depends on what broadcasters and sponsors thought really. If you could get them on board then I would make adjustments to the current calendar. TV, sponsors, clubs, players and fans all pulling in the same direction could make a success out of it as a vehicle to promote the game. You’d need as much buy-in as possible from all these stakeholders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
