12 team Superleague.
Each team will play 29 regular season games in 2019.
These will be made up of each team playing every other side home and away, the Magic Weekend fixture, plus six other matches (how these are selected is anyone's guess).
Top 5 qualify for the GF playoffs.
Bottom club relegated.
Common sense at last! Top5 playoffs rewards the league leaders with a week off, but still keeps the playoffs for the best teams.
Intrigued to see how they do the extra 6 games though, really don't want to see another derby shoe-horned in like previously just to make money. But if you do a 'top 6 play each other again' type format, then it benefits teams in the 7th-10th positions for their playoff run-in as they get easier games, and hinders those in say 4th-6th.
Interesting to see the only SL club that voted against was Leeds, its not like Gary has spat his dummy out or anything!
