[QUOTE="j'nuh, post: 895211, member: 55446"] Any plan which involves reducing the number of games has no chance. Fewer rounds = less money. tbh, it also doesn't make much sense. There are 400+ players in the Premiership excluding academy players. Why reduce the competition on the account of ~30 overworked English players? Here's an alternative idea: players sign central contracts with the RFU and clubs bid via a draft to 'lease' the players season-by-season. Clubs successful with a bid are then reimbursed on the percentage of the season that the player missed with England and through enforced rest periods. Also has the desirable effect of spreading the England stars throughout the league making it more competitive. [/QUOTE]
