  1. A photo finish but that means only one winner......
  2. https://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/25720291.ipswich-witches-hoping-announce-sale-coming-days/
  3. First big problem - are there 12 reasonable standard Championship riders not already contracted to a Premiership club? Second big problem - it's an horrific idea
  4. Still no one putting anything up that contradicts my thoughts - just saying! Rather like the "let's just have one big league at Championship level" brigade that can't accept the true standard it will most likely be Only responses are name calling to deflect from the fact that they can't show I'm not right
  5. Just a bit of scrappy maths We will use your listed riders and assume 4x 8 pointers drop and you find 20 new foreigners and avoid having to use new 2 pointers So in your absolute perfect scenario it would enable an increase in team limit from my estimate if 30 to somewhere in the region of 33.5 If you make all the new foreigners 5 instead of 4 you can pretend it's 35
  6. You say "you could easily get 20" new foreigners - if you could I think you would've seen a few more already (but we haven't - probably due to costs If you need to use 28 2 or 2-3 point riders someone like Smith at the upper end of that range is very likely to be a second string even if by default
  7. See my reply to Ben91 - ots not what I would want but I see little other option I'm not anti Championship, I don't blame teams for not wanting to step up - equally no one wants the scenario I set out but it is the reality of one big league unless there is a miraculous influx of higher standard riders At the moment I see that as inevitable
  8. No I don't expect he will bit 8n one big league there will be 2 NDL 2 pointers at reserve and those such as Smith will be second strings. Team totals will need to be in the region of 30 (assuming 7 man teams retained)
  9. Look forward to the One Big League in 2027 where the likes of Jack Smith will be needed to fill Second string slots......
  10. I'd say there needs to be discussion much much earlier than mid year Ideally they need to start as part of the rearranged AGM in January
