It really does raise the question as to whether it's right we continue with the name in the long term.............or whether something like NRL (Europe) would be more appropriate for branding/recognition purposes

Rugby European League sounds a good name to me with international appeal if Toulouse join the Catalans in our games top European competition.

Well judging by the reaction of football fans and pundits, as well as the governing bodies, I doubt this will actually happen. 
 

But anyway, the name Rugby League should be pushed more. Not Rugby or League or RL but RugbyLeague, as if it’s one word. 

European Rugby League premiership? 

Rugby League European premiership?

Super League should definitely be on the phone to their solicitors, regardless. 

 

We shouldn't be rushing to change anything at the moment.

Could just call it the Top Tier. We often talk about a sport's top tier, 2nd tier, etc. Might as well make it a thing!

Rugby League's Top Tier.

Get Clarkson, May and Hammond to present...

Yep, sort of.

I'd be up for Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, etc.

There will be loads of gubbins left over about Tiers after this pandemic.

Someone asked this last night on social media so I had a look at just the UK trademarks.

There's at least 50 that cover the use of the word "Super League".

So, we'd have something of a case, possibly, if someone else tried to run a rugby league competition called Super League

Like the Balkan Super League.

Surely...The Total Rugby League, Greatest Game (formerly known as Rugby League) Rugby League Championship Premier Rugby League..... League.

it has a ring to it...

Or for the new age of social media Rugby (Oval Football) League of Leagues or ROFLOL for short ... will at least get some good memes and some accidental hashtags!

Maybe Wigan RL and Wigan Athletic can merge... and play in both Super leagues, Football and Rugby League

Leeds Rhinos currently play in three Super Leagues; Super League, Women's Super League and Netball Super League
