I disagree that the game needs expansion to survive. In many instances that is the very thing that kills it.

Quote ="ninearches"We seem to be in a catch 22 situation here. A long term plan is obviously not on the agenda because time will tell that unless the game is expanded from its roots it will disappear & very quickly once it starts. Unfortunately, overseas players will never be available in sufficient quality or quantity to save the English game so unless the RFL are planning to use East European labour the game needs to grow from within . A mighty oak with diseased roots can't be substituted by a eucalyptus tree.'"
The RFL 2016 Annual report cites 2,017 registered teams and 55,257 players (up 2% on 2015).
Look at how organised the NRL player development is organised https://playnrl.com/game-development-regions/
Nothing will kill the game quicker than a dull, uninspiring spectacle at the elite level. |
