[QUOTE="jonny24, post: 697265, member: 62880"] I knew about the whole football and equal number of men vs women. I still think its a load of crap. I'm all for equality, but university sport should be representing things a bit more realistically. Do women play football? Not really. Do men and women both play most other sports? Yep. In fact, women get Field Hockey AND Rugby, vs men's football. The rationalization being total number of players being equal. It would be just as "fair" to have an equal number of sports vs players. I've had the same thoughts about combining regional sides in Canada and the US. It seems a shame that we have ready-made teams in the CRC, but they only have their short season to do anything. I hadn't actually worked out what the American teams would be, but what you've come up with sounds pretty good. Even if only 4 could get going to start off, we could actually have a competition going and add the others as they are able. What do you think are the chances the NRFL have considered or talked to the CRC clubs? Having 4 up and running franchises would go a long way to reaching a starting point. [/QUOTE]
