[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 399112, member: 39240"] Well I'll put it this way Welsh teams play in LV cup and have to make it up with Midweek games already. For an Irish province we aren't in LV and still have too many games. Yes 4 teams may have extra game but remember if it comes in Heineken it has to come in Amlin so that 8 teams and then the 8 teams they were supposed to play domestically is 16 teams effected. Playoff system is needed in leagues and very much appreciated. The games in Hong Kong don't effect NH teams and internationals are played mainly within test windows so cutting an international game etc wouldn't make difference as National teams can still take players. Add in fact then if you weaken any league by eliminating playoffs then you possibly weaken the leagues entertainment and loose revenue in marketing etc [/QUOTE]
