If your so daft to think its working then let me explain...
Wales (Celtic Crusaders) The Franchise that didn't even last 3 Years .. Wish full thinking was that then ?
London - Oh don't get me started... Different name / Ground / both every couple of years.. alienates whatever fans they do have - would not have survived this long without the RL changing the rules for them ... finally been allowed to be relegated and it will do them the world fo good!
Bradford - The club that broke itself trying to maintain its franchise ... sad to see the relegated tbh.. but rather them the us..

What rules were changed for London and when did they previously finish in a relegation position?
Bradford broke themselves chasing silverware, not trying to maintain a franchise. It just took a few years and several incompetent management teams for it to play out.
Franchising was the correct way to go for the sport. Unfortunately the RFL cocked it up. P&R failed in the past and will fail again regardless of the shiny new structure being used to disguise it as something new and innovative.
