The difference in standard between the two leagues is nothing like what it used to be. Time for a north and south division then the cup compettions and pairs/fours as a total country?
Agree but might not be Edinburgh's decision i suppose. Full time Premiership isn't the lure it used to be so if he does choose to leave i expect it's for more racing on the continent?
Right folks, what do you think/have you heard re. 2018? We need to lose one of Erik, Sam and Ricky i think?

Credit to Ipswich; strong reserve pairing and having Schlein round Armadale is a real bonus. Heat 8 left a bit of a nasty taste - quite within his rights to shut off on the third bend but didn't think it was necessary.
Ok, let's say they prepared the track to a condition that didn't benefit the home riders quite as much (a mental thing to do), Edinburgh would still likely have won those play off matches just by a smaller margin. Same outcome; loadsa trophies.
