Judging by how boring this Nwc's meeting is I'm guessing most teams won't get to choose cause we'll all die of boredom.....

i've always assumed i am the only one in there on the internet at the same time! don't see the point of having a special meeting - it's not a league decision it is one for individual clubs!

The meetings are a complete joke now, there is nothing that can't be said in an email. Last night was completely stupid...

Our Club (Hindley) asked each player to vote - I voted for the switch to summer - I'm sick of extreme winter weather

Agree with Ant.

It all seems a nice idea in theory playing in good weather etc.. but it will see the death of many a club. Their is already a shortage of players IMO in relation to the amount of clubs trying to field teams. Add into the mix summer rugby, 6 weeks kids school holidays, BBQs, family days out, summer holidays etc etc and just generally finding excuses to spend the nice weekends in beer gardens and alike. This will all have a negative impact on the number of players willing to turn out on a Saturday.
