StandOffHalf Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Wouldn't it be better to promote the English champs to the NRL and relegate the bottom NRL team to the SL each year? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So English pool would be one pool and two Aussie/ kiwi pools of 8 . You play your own pool home and away which equals 14 games . Then play four teams from each of the other two pools . Four at home / four away for another 8 games giving total of 22 rounds . Then top 12 in merit table of 24 play in knock out to be champions . With top 4 getting a bye in first round . That would also give us room to have an international round robin with Australia , England and New Zealand . I really don’t think we need to dilute our product over here in Australia you made your mess over there, sort it out yourself 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well did not Rimmer speculate on an expanded World Club tournament when he was interviewed last year? One for Martyn to tease out I think. Maybe in 2050 when world travel is cheaper, cleaner and quicker, but It is worth a mindless speculation on a post heatwave Wednesday. Personally I would prepare the International game concentrated on the national rep gaem than club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
