[QUOTE="higgik, post: 1184942, member: 74704"] The only way through this is franchises. I know it is an anathema to lots, but there is not enough money in this country to have individual clubs fighting each other financially. Ideally, PRL, CVC and RFU would set up a new league where 300-400 players were contracted to the league and 'franchised' out to the clubs for a given fee, just like the NFL. The owners have to realise that working together to create a better product, will make them more money in the medium to long term. [/QUOTE]
