I have not been banned on the sinbin.

This is a genuine suggestion that has not been thought through. Just think whilst the play offs will take a lot out of the top eight. The bottom six will come back as fresh as ever and get a chance to finish in the top half of the table - maybe even first!

Just sounds like the old premiership competition but mid season!


Play Offs have decided the league champions for the vast majority of the 114 years of Rugby League so its not a new(ish) concept. You cannot beat the drama of a play off battle. Ok the best regular season side may not always win the Grand Final but it takes extra skills to succeed in the play offs. Mental strength as well as pshyical power. No way would I advocate getting rid of them - although it'll be interesting to see how this years top 8 system goes.

Thus qualifying for the play-offs and the chance to win the competition! Except that's already taken place half way through the comp, three months earlier. Does Damo have a time machine?

No need for a time machine mate.

Midseason you can become the play off champions. At the end of the season you can become the league champions!

What a bonkers, and rubbish, idea!
I dopn't think there is anything wrong with the play-off system for this season. I'm pessimistic about the 'choose your opponent' idea that one club will end up having but I'm willing to give it 2 or 3 season before I judge it properly
