What about this.

We pool all the players and put them into pots
14 full backs
14 left wings

..............and so on

we then get the remaining players in a backs and forwards utility pool.

We then have Sky broadcast the draw live where each club pulls out a name from each pot in turn for each position. Each club then pulls out names from the utility pools until they have 25 players.

That becomes the squad, salaries are set by a committee and paid centrally.

Coaches are told 'coach' with the squad you have.

repeat this every year and I bet no team will become dominant, you never know, Hull FC might even win at Wembley if we do it for 50 yrs or so.

That's kind of how the NFL populate the player roster of their expansion teams.

I'm convinced its dilly dally in disguise

Surely it would be beter to just get the 14 club captains and have them pick sides, like in the school playground.

Then perhaps they can play rock, paper, scissors for which "team" gets which ground as its home.

And finally, Stevo can be put in the "stocks" before each televised game, and fans can line up to throw rotten eggs at him.

Actually, the last idea isn't bad, ........ now where's the phone number of Sky Customer Services ........

They already are penalised financially. They don't get as much prize money.

But taking money off a financially struggling team... idea of a lifetime!

Why should a badly run business be subsidised by better run businesses.

Is this a p!sstake?

My Royal Rumble style Magic Weekend was better.

Bizarre. More like every team in the play offs has to contribute one player from their academy squad to a central pool (At the choice of the RFL's youth director) who are then given to the teams finishing outside the play offs in a draft style format, bottom gets first dibs etc.

It brings in the talent levelling all the American sports use without needing to have independant youth production sites like those sports have with the university systems.

The team that finished bottom should be forced to go on Noel's House Party and get gunged. That'll learn 'em.

Have I clicked into a parallel universe verison of RLFans by mistake?

Why bother even playing games, let's decide they by rock, paper, scissors best of 3, or even conkers!

Haven't you heard, relegation is back! There is plenty of incentive not to finish bottom two more than once in the 3 year license period.

Hows about we do away with the rugby and just base a league table on quality and location of stadia? Oh...hang on...

Why dont we get every super league player on the pitch with a weapon of thier choice, then let them do battle, skin on skin. The last one still breathin wins the challenge cup, grand final, leauge leaders shield, young player, man of steel and coach.
the first one to die gets clubman of the year.

So, where's the original poster gone, anyway?

In hiding

For his medication.

At this juncture I'd like to point out that the original poster came from yorkshire

what would be a good idea is the top league in rugby league dropped SL and incorporated RL back into the title name so people outside the game know what sport it is.ERL would do for me.

its no worse an idea than deducting points from teams with no money

does that mean its better?

Do you mean deducting points from clubs that have promised money they didn't have ?

The OP is a Rugby League hating Halifax Town Football Fan. Hence the lamebrain post. If you care to look at his pevious posts you will see why he's been put back a year to Remedial Class 1*
