The RFL have, today, announced that Super League will increase from twelve teams to fourteen in the wake of a licensing system starting in 2009. The increase will mean that all twelve clubs, plus two others from the National Leagues or France, are likely to compete on a basic home and away fixture list plus the May bank holiday “Magic Weekend”.
So who should be included in the competition next year? Well, I have one suggestion which I will not back down on. The list is, as follows;
Bradford Bulls
Catalan Dragons
Celtic Crusaders
Huddersfield Giants
Harlequins RL
Hull FC
Hull KR
Leeds Rhinos
Leigh Centurions
Salford City Reds
St Helens
Warrington Wolves
Widnes Vikings
Wigan Warriors
We don’t need another French team just yet, Super League isn’t ready. Wakefield have a poor stadium, and their finances are in a worse state than Northern Rock’s have been in recent months. As for Cas, see Wakefield. Whereas Fax and Featherstone are looking further down the line and into 2011. End of story, I await the RFL to make a huge blunder.
