the game loses London scholars, and gateshead thunder, Cas openly admitting to operating well under cap, Toulouse reported to possibly be in trouble now and with their ground issues and now this you have to wonder about Salford as well. Nene McDonald is a strange one indeed. The game is certainly in a bit of a state at present.

I think in 5/10 years Wilf a lot of the teams will go back to being part time.

Looking on Rugby League Project, Brown has played a lot of 13 - be good to see him there for us at times during the season. Slightly concerned about our number 7 scenario - is Medforth anywhere near?

Harry Smith and Sneyd prove you just need a steady 7 who can control and kick a team to death.

Smith yes, Sneyd no, Smith is alot more than Steady.

Be intresting to see how Sneyd gets on without Croft and Ackers.

Hopefully we can do a swap deal with Salford with Watkins for Lane

And Partington for Cator while we're at it?

A consequence of scrapping relegation is that you might have Cas, Salford and London potentially all being relatively uncompetitive for next season, London won't panic buy and Cas and Salford seem to have reduced their playing budgets to maybe try focus on other aspects of IMGball and keep their SL status

Not in super league

People been saying this 10 years ago

Remember crusaders bradford the game wasn't flying 10 years ago either

The game will be fine just needs clubs to listen instead of doing their own thing which hasn't worked
