Quote ="BrigRugbyLeague"In reality before this week all clubs would have had two free weeks during the course of the season (obviously there will be more due to weather and teams unable to run a side), the Girvins have cocked up yet again throughout the league, a) only deciding on the league structure two weeks before the season started and b)letting clubs decide what division they play in.
e.g if a club doesn't think their team will be competitive in a higher division should they really let them drop down to a division they will feel more competitive in?, its a competition all teams should rise and fall through the divisions on merit.
I personally feel sorry for any division 5 or 6 teams who have worked there socks off only to see someone leapfrog over them, whats up with playing friendlys each week organised by the League, like i say they had enough time to get there house in order.'"
how many teams are free each week to play freindlys, even if the league did try to organise them? until sides start dropping out there appears to be no friendly teams available. oh there is 1 spare team each week, its the 1 in div 4 so basically puttin them in div 4 is the same as playing the spare team in a friendly but for 2 points instead.
