Great. Devalued, now dumbed down.

"said O’Shea. “We know that only Doncaster met them this year. The discussions are, how do we improve that?"
You improve it by applying, finding out exactly what you need to do to comply with their dopey rules, and then complying if it's not too onerous. Which is what Cov did, and are doing. |

I see the max number of DR s in a match day squad will be 6, but does that include loans

I like the idea of the playoffs, top and bottom, it potentially gets some more movement in teams if 2nd bottom can’t beat 2nd of ND1.
It also means that it keeps more interest in the league for the few that meet the Premiership criteria.

"Champ Rugby" - who on earth thought of that?

Well I like the play off ideas and the potential for 2 up from Nat 1 is an encouraging openness from the current league teams, not all of whom may have personally wanted to agree to that.
The name isn't great, but I think the Championship Podcast has referred to the league as the "Champ" for a while hasn't it, and who cares anyway. Just pleased some people are trying a few things and trying to make improvements. It has to be better than just moaning about the status quo and doing nothing concrete to alter it.
