| Quote wiganermike="wiganermike"I like the idea of having it as a stand alone 7s cup but the only problem with having so many teams would be the number of games needed. Straight knock out would mean the fewest number of games
Preliminary round=4 games + 1st rnd=16 + 2nd rnd=8 + 3rd rnd=4 + SF=2 +Final. Meaning 35 games and I doubt that many would fit into two days.
With the SL clubs plus the two Championship Grand Finalists from the previous year it would be less unwieldy (1st Rnd=8games + 2nd rnd=4 + 2 SFs + final = 17 games in total) and easier to fit in to a weekend. It would also provide a reward for the two teams getting to Championship GF.'"
if you had the playing hours of 10 till 8 you can play 30 games at 3 games an hour or 20 games at 2 games an hour.
or just have SL, NL1 and top 6 of NL2 this would make 32 teams, this would mean 31 games in total. 16 one day 15 the next.

I don't want to sound too negative but I think that the idea of 10 hours of rugby on each day would be a bit too much, particularly for families with younger children. If it was to have so many teams (and thus games) then it would probably need to run onto the Bank Holiday Monday as well with maybe the last 3 rounds played on the monday.

i was just saying you could fit that in.
15 games at 3 an hour would be 5 hours which is reasonably

| Quote Wire_Yed="Wire_Yed"or here's another idea, scrap the current system in terms of extra game for the league.
So we don't have an extra game end of.
but
This weekend (sat and sun) we have a sevens tournament with SL, NL1 and NL2 clubs competing. The games are short, are inclusive of every team and the fans.
It's an extra cup to brag about, 36 teams in a 2 day competition. Surely that would fill a stadium.'"
Ive suggested that idea before aswell, i reackon that would be good weekend and would attract a good crowd... i really wish we did have a 7's tournament. As you said, another cup to brag about
So thats 26,642 for the first day and 25,401 for the second day, so a total of 52,043. I think those numbers prove that the current set up is not working, either that or we really dont want it.

| 'RFL content with Magic Event'
More like RFL happy to remain in their own world.
[urlhttp://www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=rleague/10/05/02/RUGBYL_Magic.html[/url
Will they ever listen to the fans? The concept is a good one, but tweaks need to be made, ironically the best Magic Weekend was the first two, yet the ever tampering RFL couldn't just leave it be.

Did you actually write "[imeddler[/i" or did the word filter change it from a more accurate description?

| Bring back the Lancashire and Yorkshire Cups with the finals being a double header. It wouldn't be a magic weekend but its a day out with 4 teams playing. Could even have a 'Other Counties'* Cup final too that day meaning 6 teams.
* 'Other Counties' Cup could involve, Barrow, Whitehaven, Workington, Gateshead, Harlequins, Skolars, Crusaders, South Wales, Catalans, Toulouse etc.

| We need next year to play in a smaller stadium as its proving its the same fans ( like myself) going year in year out, that its not putting bums on seats what this was designed to do but with lewis/wood in charge of our game we will be back next year out of the heartland infront of 25k fans each day.I would if possible take it to the midlands villa/coventry big enough stadiums and wont look bad on tv if the ground is empty like this year when it did.

I'd go ya cheeky get
IMO though teams in the Midlands would be far more popular than anything Quins have ever done. Its easy to get to, 2 hours travelling max for fans of each team.
