Message: [QUOTE="Allo, post: 3252097, member: 8190"] I don't know how you can have a 'National' anything when 1 of 16-18 teams only plays 7-8 of the teams twice and the other 8-9 zero times. Conferences is dumb. Expand, cut out the rounds over Origin, everyone plays each other once + 3 more games at true random, then finals, and give the international window a legitimate space. It might mean less footy overall (expansion will make up for some of it), but it'll be better quality. Then, to keep it fair again, reverse the venues the next year. We play NQ in Brisbane this year, we play them up there next year. 20 rounds of 9 games. break for 4 weeks over Origin at round 10, season is still as long as it is now and is much fairer. Sure we lose 20 games a year, but I'm sure there are 20 games every year that no one gives a shit about (every Broncos game hur hur). Either that or go the other way, don't expand, and everyone plays twice, squads are like 50 players each to spread out over the 30 weeks + finals and there's **** all off-season. Most players will only play 25-30 anyway if managed properly. Salary Cap can go up from a massive increase to any TV Deal to cover the expanded squads. I think most people will get sick of it before the end, no matter how much they love footy. It will result in lower standard though obviously with a lot more fringe players, and that will have a flow-on to the state leagues being worse [/QUOTE]
