Re: Next Season & Dual Code : Tue Nov 25, 2014 9:47 pm  

Think the Ben Reynolds situation is down to some RFL rules, because he's come through Cas' academy they have to have 1st refusal on offering him a contract next year, they don't have to and he doesn't have to take it is what I think was said.
Glad to see Fev are back on their feet, now P&R is back the sport needs as many good strong clubs pushing the SL hangers on as possible.
Also glad they've decided against Dual code, needs scrapping next season for the farce of not knowing who you'll be playing each week, & that SL clubs can affect who gains promotion into SL, & that the whole point of the Qualifier Super 8 is to prove you're already better than the team that you're replacing, it's completely incompatible with the RL New Era Championship.
Seems an odd way of doing things with the Leeds players, rather than on a Season Long Loan, still presume there must be a reason; although if that reason is just to get around on loan quotas it's something The RFL need to look at the rules for in the future.

But it hasn't been scrapped, deals already announced between York and Cas plus I think Wire and North Wales

I know DC is not popular but I was happy enough with it when we had to use it.

It will never be scrapped as long as the top clubs don't have a reserve league imo and also imo I feel it is short sighted that there isn't a Superleague reserve league which does nothing but harm to the pro game imo.(yeh I am opinionated).

Sorry, just meant glad Fev have scrapped it. Did the RFL finish their consultation on Dual Code for next season? I can almost let it go in League 1 but really in the Championship it needs to go, especially with the Super 8s arrangement.
