'It is definitely coming' remark which caught my eye. By the way which other top league in Rugby Union has promotion and relegation-I do not think the French do? or the Italians? Oz,NZ and SA are bound up in the Super14 with some playing in the PRO.
Interesting only time will tell. Rugby League tried no Relegation and then went back to it-hence the promotion of London Broncos. Which reminds me to go and watch them at Ealing. Great fan of RL from the days when I worked in Sydney and watched matches there.
