Ludicrous is a good word to sum up the game in general right now.nottinghamtiger wrote: ↑29 Jul 2021, 14:38It just seems ludicrous that we are playing third fixtures between some teams when other haven't even played each other once, and the vast majority haven't played each other twice.The Firm wrote: ↑29 Jul 2021, 13:56Wigan play Leigh for the 3rd time in monday as well.Tamworth Tiger wrote: ↑29 Jul 2021, 13:28Yes you’re correct. I’ve realised he was talking in the context of the third game being played on Monday next week, so for the purposes of this discussion they will shortly have played Catalans three times!nottinghamtiger wrote: ↑29 Jul 2021, 12:15Not according to either club’s website they haven’t.Tamworth Tiger wrote: ↑29 Jul 2021, 11:51 Tony Smith said today the Hull KR have played Catalans three times already
They played each other in round 1 and again last weekend.
The seasons a mess

Re: The seasons a mess
Bizarre comment I know BUT if Leigh do not play the minimum 18 games is their season classed as invalid and they cannot get relegated !!
I think the minimum number of games was to get in Top 6 - get the lawyers on it and check the small print

Tony Smith thinks there should be no relegation in view of the mess this season is and is up for one or two teams still getting promoted

Re: The seasons a mess
I think they'll let them in but they'll get no money. The club's won't want their income reducing by dividing by 14 rather than 12.Tamworth Tiger wrote: ↑29 Jul 2021, 19:22 Tony Smith thinks there should be no relegation in view of the mess this season is and is up for one or two teams still getting promoted

Re: The seasons a mess
We just can't keep changing the league, playoffs and rules every season. There has to be continuity. There problems we have is each club wants something different.

Never mind the season, the whole professional game is on its behind.

And that's why we need an independent review with new investment. The so called top clubs are not interested in growing the game, just their results.

Re: The seasons a mess
Elstone came in to sort the TV deal and raise the games profile only to find out each club wanted different things and couldn't agree any of his proposals and then sky used the advantage to get a better deal for themselves.FIat Capper wrote: ↑03 Aug 2021, 12:09And that's why we need an independent review with new investment.

Now we have a rich owner of Huddersfield, who owns nothing but their name ( no ground or training facilities) and is owed closing in on £20 million in temporary charge. What do you think he wants......... Yes it's about strategic placement and facilities. Of course, Huddersfield must be strategic, it's the birth place of rugby League don't you know.
It needs to be truly independent but since super League is a members club, they pay for the review and decide whether to implement the findings. I wouldn't want the rfl involved as Rimmer him and his team couldn't organise a successful trip to a brewery.

The goalposts were certainly moved on more than one occasion.Tamworth Tiger wrote: ↑03 Aug 2021, 13:46Didn’t Huddersfield finish bottom of Super League 4 times before the RFL relegated them?mart0042 wrote: ↑03 Aug 2021, 13:24Elstone came in to sort the TV deal and raise the games profile only to find out each club wanted different things and couldn't agree any of his proposals and then sky used the advantage to get a better deal for themselves.FIat Capper wrote: ↑03 Aug 2021, 12:09And that's why we need an independent review with new investment.
