Excellent news.

More spin and empty rhetoric from GH

It's not happening and it won't be happening either.

Want to make a bet on that?

It’ll be interesting to see how they pick the three teams, especially if one team were to win the C.C, L.L.S & G.F

I hope it comes off, though I’d rather have it in October, although I can’t see me booking flights to Aus any time soon

.

The 3 teams from Superleague should be GF winners, GF Runners Up and highest seeded losing semi finalist in the play offs. The same selection process should be used for the NRL also.

I hate to say it but im with Billy Eve on this one.The aussies havnt even shown interest in staging the current 1 game format, so to think they would make room for an expanded competition running in both the UK and over there is a bit jumping the gun.

As WE says its all from the mouth of GH who has spun us his dream on several occasions in the past few years but the article is not backed up by anyone influential in the NRL so its still pie in the sky.

Lets get the stand alone game on an alternate basis first and IF we can compete, then build from there.do we really need another 1997 debacle anyway?

So that means no elite international competition in the autumn of 2015 then, presumably?

Unless you're going to be asking England, Australia and New Zealand to pick sides without players from their top clubs?

Having the LLS winners and CC winners should be a step forward to adding value to those competitions. If a team wins more than one of those, then the spot should just drop to the next best team in the post-season rankings.

Anything that brings money into the game must be welcomed, hopefully the Aussies are up for it.

With regards qualification, to give greater improtance to the regular season, shouldn't the Grand Final Winners, then the two highest placed finishers of the regular season get the nod?

For me it should be the GF winners then the top 2 in the league after that.

There is very little detail in the articles I've seen, so how it will fit into the season. Also I don't get the principle of playing it against the international fixtures? Surely with the best players playing in the internationals, the SL teams are going to be even weaker against the NRL sides.

Will Wigan be the same without Tomkins, Saints without Roby etc...

It will be a test of the squad depth of the top teams which will favour the higher capped league.

It's good that they are trying to get something in place though and we need it to compete with RU in this country as RU in this country thrives of it's internationals.
