As everyone else seems to have their own Exiles thread, I thought I'd get in on the act.

It seems the jingoistic nature of the Exiles game doesn't seem to really be catching on with RL fans on here. So, hows about picking two teams at complete random?

We start by drawing an imaginary line down the middle of the country, cutting it into East and West.

Then, every player in SL is given a random number and is put in a pot with all the other players of his position.

The two coaches then pick out players at random a la cup tie selection.

It creates excitement and an air of mystery as you don't know which players will be selected for the teams.

Good eh?

no

no

Cut the teams down to 10 in the league
19 game season down from 27

4 clubs go into a champions league against the Aussie clubs

How about, let this be the last season of Rugby League full stop. Obviously nothing is working, and no-one is happy with anything.

3 game series

Table skittles
Shove ha'penny
Bar billiards

Winner of the Aussie Origin series vs England - Market the balls off it as an 'all star game' .. We'll get absolutely pasted, but it'll be a good laugh.

3 game series:

first game:
england v emerging england (a la city v countr)

games 2 and 3:
england (selected from both sides in game 1) v exiles

how about lets give something a chance rather than bin it after 2 games imagine if aussie state of origin got binned

All the new ideas in this thread?

Currently being considered by the RFL.

Wow. And I thought the sarcasm was obvious in my post when I started this...

The idiocy of your ideas is exactly what the RFL would trot out tomorrow. That's why people can't see the whoooosh from the trees.
