    Latest IMG proposals for Super League

    Did you actually read the article? The finances of RL clubs are in a terrible state and has warned of a difficult few years ahead. Are you actually comprehending what he's saying? Saying that other sports are also in a bad state is not an argument. What the Cas owner is saying marries with...

    Latest IMG proposals for Super League

    But Perth Red told us right here on this forum that RL in England is in great shape. Who should I believe Perth Red or the owner of Castleford?

    Quite convenient that this comes out after the IMG scoring announcement

    Great post. It's a complete cop out to say, well RL has always been a regional sport so it's no different. Not true, RL had a sizeable audiences in southern England and Wales, this is something that Sky themselves had said many times. You even pointed out Sheffield Eagles reaching the cup...

    But hey I'm sure Perth Red knows better than the Warrington chairman

    But Perth Red just told us RL in the UK is booming. Surely this must be a mistake. 🤦‍♂️

    It's a positive thing within the narrow corridor that RL has cornered itself into. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter to casual sports fans.

    Latest IMG proposals for Super League

    What the hell does IMG ratings have to do with the popularity and sentiment towards the sport? Do you think the casual sports fan in Slough or Gloucester gives a shit whether Castleford installed benches? Most of these are things that should have been done years ago and should have been the bare...

    You're so delusional. RL is at an all time low in the UK. I don't even know where to start.

    The catchment area scoring criteria is abhorrent. Someone told me that Salford scored more than London and Newcastle. If this is true it really is disgusting

    Latest IMG proposals for Super League

    Yep and even worse London not getting a full score on catchment area despite being the only pro club for miles. Also no scores given for academy/juniors. Absolute shitshow

    Unfortunately it's not gonna happen

    Latest IMG proposals for Super League

    Agree with the sentiment of this. The IMG approach focuses and puts all the emphasis on individual clubs but I don't see any strategy in regards to the overall direction of the sport and how it plans to make the SL competition more appealing to broader audiences. Another opportunity lost, I've...

    We need to be pragmatic about this. Is any of this increasing the value of tv deals? Is it attracting more diverse audiences geographically or numerically?
