This is great news and long overdue but I hope this is not a one season wonder as it suits the premiership clubs due to the world cup.

Great news and long overdue indeed. Does this mean that our actual league season will not start until mid October?

Currently, if I'm understanding this correctly where 1 plays 24, 2 plays 23 etc. The pools could look like this:
Pool 1.
Sarries
Mc Quins/Richmond/Rams/Cambridge or/Wasps
Newcastle
Ampthill
London Irish
Ealing

Pool2.
Sale
Caldy
Gloucester
Donny
Exeter
Coventry

Pool3.
Leicester
Notts
Bath
Pirates
Quins
Mc Quins/Richmond/Rams/Cambridge or/Wasps

Pool 4.
Saints
Hartpury
Bristol
Bedford
Jersey
Mc Quins/Richmond/Rams/Cambridge or/ Wasps

It's a pity there are no quarter finals. Think we coul scare a couple of teams in pool 3 without their superstars.

It would be good if they tweaked it a bit geographically.
Ideally we'd want Bath, Bristol and Gloucester!

Geographically ideal Stalwart but, the RFU!!!!!

Agree with you Pirate 15 will this be a one season event due to the RWC.

If there is a match at Tigers will make the Robert Peel aware in advance.
