Rugby league revolution as IMG prepares to rip it up and start again
After the new Super League season, which kicks off on Thursday, a replacement for promotion and relegation looms
I wonder how they let this happen, you would assume the name is trademarked?Changing the name is def a good step! Especially since womens soccer stole it anyways.
Must not be able to, after women also used it the new European soccer league was also going to be callled Superleague as well!I wonder how they let this happen, you would assume the name is trademarked?
No one will know what RFL means. If we are going to stick using rugby then we need to call it “rugby league“ somethingRFL Premiership, RFL Championship, RFL League 1, then filter down into the amateurs. Pretty simple, no?
Not yet determined. there’s moves afoot to bring in a license grading system, it won’t guarantee a club a spot forever but going to be interesting to see how they handle relegating someone.They still doing pro rel?! Need to go to licenses
Basic competence just like common sense is always harder to find than you’d think. If IMG make some of these things common practice then move to the bigger picture issues they might just earn their money. Let’s hope.I'm seeing changes like promptly posting SL highlights on YouTube cited as evidence of the positive influence of IMG. All these things just seem like basic competence rather than marketing genius.
Which begs a couple of questions -
Why have we had to hire IMG to ensure basic competence?
Why were previous administrators paid a shit-tonne of money?
Because RL is old school and never had the money to invest as it all went to trying to keep clubs afloatI'm seeing changes like promptly posting SL highlights on YouTube cited as evidence of the positive influence of IMG.

Not like you to use bad language, or maybe just trying to fit in with the locals...Why were previous administrators paid a shit-tonne of money?
Comedy rhetoric, mate.Not like you to use bad language, or maybe just trying to fit in with the locals...
Perhaps a case of watching your club play a game in Leigh on a wet and windy Sunday afternoon or watching them play on warm afternoon in FranceSurprising fans favour French clubs in that number given stereotype fans have.
Would be great for game if north england & southern France heartlands joined up
yep, after being to Perpignan to watch my club I know who'd Id rather have in the comp!Perhaps a case of watching your club play a game in Leigh on a wet and windy Sunday afternoon or watching them play on warm afternoon in France
