[QUOTE="Jethro, post: 279599"] Still think they should leave the ANZC alone and revisit in a couple of years to review rather than making a decision on a situation that no longer exists. Anyone seriously think the four provinces headed down aren't going to be raped of players and the team managing to gain promotion the following year isn't going to be cannon fodder for the existing nine premier league teams? The problem with the old NPC system was lack of movement between the second division and first division, grinding teeth time for Bay supporters. It lead to players leaving the provinces for the S14 bases in order to have a shot at higher recognition. This is not a good thing for the health of the code in NZ. I would much rather watch 12 or so competitive teams than return to the five haves and the rest of us being the have nots. [/QUOTE]
