Cas to miss out on basis of (a) poor ground with no redevlopment plans concrete & (b) what they have brought to the comp in recent years - think Wakey just edge above them in stakes of being competitive in last 5 years.

We do have a new stadium coming.

I think they will either go 2 ways...

Just add two new teams in, 2 of, Salford, Widnes, Celtic

Or go out to make a big new start and change things rapidly, with HKR, Wakey n Cas to poss miss out.

Would like to see HKR in next season, but am not to fussed about Wakey or Cas, as i feel Salford, Widnes and Celtic all have a fair shout.

Also maby they will go with Toulouse.

if you look at it about how the super league has gone over the past 3 or 4 years, then it should be the 12 now and widnes and salford, because widnes and cas have been promoted and relegated quite a few times and if you have them both in nl1 they will boss it, so if they get a 3 year stint in the top league they will improve so theres no point in dropping cas out.
but i think the rfl will go with salford and celtic, and maybe drop cas out and bring widnes in too

Would adding two "M62" teams go along with the RFLs expansion plans though?
