Can't say I enjoy this new format at all. I hope that we get into a solid position in the league and then use the squad more than going all out to win the league again.
Just fighting for top 8. After that top 24 will do Draw is fine. Win is on. Hope to actually use the games ro develop the system
I was willing to give it a chance, and I'm still undecided to a degree - but it does seem like there's really nothing to gain from coming in the top few places. That can lead to complacency, and it doesn't really solve the problem of a few dead rubbers that the old format suffered from.
I much prefer it. Playing 7 different teams is far more enjoyable than home and away v 3 teams tbh. in terms of finishing top They’ve changed it slightly this year so if you finish top you also guarantee a 2nd leg home time all the way to the final I believe. I think last year was bit of a fluke with psg being **** until Christmas, might be same again this year but top 8 is important to avoid the 1st knockout round though even if you then get a good team afterwards.
I was dubious before it kicked off last season but wore like the idea now; we get to play different teams, What's not to like
I'd like there to be a regular season prize. Its a league, if its in any way important then give some money if you must but make it worth something. Itll be expanded to more games eventually so this will come imo. Its is the super league in another form.
