Originally posted by 2EMEREP View PostThe Pro12 could really work this to their advantage too, by having teams from the same countries play games on adjoining days in close proximity. For example, have Munster play Treviso in Treviso on the Saturday and Connacht play Zebre on Sunday, or Treviso play Glasgow on Saturday and Zebre play Edinburgh on Sunday. Surely there would be supporters who would make a weekend of it and take in two games. That would give us our away trips and raise the profile of the league.

They move stadiums when they know they have a large fan base travelling to them,I say don't travel and **** them.

Originally posted by lawrence View PostAnd my viewpoint is that the HCUP should not be used as a development tool, (the amlin can be that), it should be the permier comp in europe that teams have to earn the right to play in, where the best 24 teams in Europe paly, Treviso are a good example of a team that has benefited from playing in europe and the Rabo, but Edinburgh are an example of a team that seems to be taking one step forward and then two steps back over the last few years.
steps backwards!

Though the kneejerk conclusions on a weekly basis are getting tiresome. Every Munster match seems to either be a "fine advertisement for the pro 12" or symptomatic of its problems.

Pro12 is in its 13th year now though and appears no nearer sorting out the scheduling than they were at the start of this competition.
How difficult can it be to get the 4 unions to commit to making the internationals available for 12/13 weeks of the pro12 season and playing the top teams against each other on these dates.
It was embarassing last night for a top of table clash between two teams who between them have won the competition 7 out of the 12 times its been competed for.

Using this weekends games as evidence of the paucity of the Celtic league is just a little hasty, all the teams from all the countries were full of brand new combinations, to expect them to suddenly gel is a little ambitious.
