Wether you agree with it or not Franchising was brought in to provide a more stable platform for super league clubs.

But the latest round of applications we have brought in a heartland team and kicked out an expansion team both with very little notice without growing the league at all is starting to look worse than P & R for the growth of our sport.

We should be looking to accept 1 heartland at each application process. This may be at the expense of a C rated heartland team.

These clubs that have been accepted must be told by December 1st the year before

We should look to add 1 expansion team at each application process.This may be at the expense of a C rated heartland or expansion team.

Expansion teams should be accepted at this application stage for acceptance at the next SL. This would give 3 years for expansion teams to plan properly.

All teams accpeted into SL should not be in danger of being chucked out at the next application stage.

That would give a heartland team 7 years and an expansion team 9 years.

The whole process is staring to feel like the RFL attitude with the Challenge Cup i.e. do the same thing year after year.

The only fair logical solution is to build the Championship up to a level to allow P and R between divisions , there is no other way , simple as






kcab sfrawdder



Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!
