Because it is so hard for teams with lots of national players...

No need for the playoffs then if international players are available all season.

With only 10 teams anyway, playoffs are utterly pointless. It is nearly half the league!

It means they don?t need bigger squads which might be good for the money men but it does mean the the 2nd and 3rd replacements won?t get starts and academy players will get even fewer opportunities.

Can anyone in the PRL and RFU see past their naval?s?

Interesting point, was that the justification for play offs originally?

Not the justification, but as rational an argument as anyone could put forward other than the glaringly obvious commercial reasons for it.
