Message: [QUOTE="BroncsNBundy, post: 2642476, member: 8364"] I find the draw part interesting. I sent the below to the NRL in an email around 6 months ago ........... Dear NRL, Like all other fans i have talked to, I am of the opinion that the draw structure needs revamping. To this end i have a suggestion i would like to offer for your consideration. First off remembering there are 16 teams and 26 rounds(including 2 byes each) with 1 test (The Anzac Test) and 3 state of origins I propose that the the draw could works as follows. *Each teams plays all other teams once *Teams finishing in top 8 previous year play each other again *Teams finishing in bottom 8 previous year play each other again *The test match and state of origins are played on the weekend( i suggest Saturday Night) as stand alone fixtures This structure still allows for a 26 weeks season so the season would still kick off at the same time of year. I understand Channel 9 has the TV rights therefore has a great amount input in this decision. I can only state that i consider their ratings would only improve as i feel more people would enjoy the saturday night origins. This structure also benefits the players greatly as they get a greater chance to play for their teams if they suffer a small injury in Test Matches or Origins, Those that dont recieve the honor of playing origin get to have 4 weekend off in their season I believe this structure adds to the fairness of the competition for ALL teams as the can field their best available team each weekend and gives the bottom 8 teams a greater chance of advancing to the final series ( a great way to encourage struggling clubs ). Many thanks for considering my suggestions .......... Any thoughts? [/QUOTE]
