Odds on? Still 6 games to go and they still have to play Halswell so it's still anyone's game. Goal difference is pretty close too, I wonder if it could come down to that like it has before. Or worse, how Nomads were even on points and goal difference in last place and got relegated as it then came down to goals scored!

Maybe a good time to see what people's  thoughts are on a ten team top league with two rounds the 3 sides fighting for promotion all offer something different. They have shown they can compete in cup games 




I dont think 10 team league is a bad idea, I'd rather see a 8 team qualifying league replace div 1.

I also don't think its a 2 horse race for relegation, western are pretty close to it too.....

Agree about may be better to see a 8 team qualifying league made up of teams that what to play in the MPL so would open the door for the likes of Hurunui Rangers and Burwood etc.

If the MPL was increased to 10 teams or 25% are there enough quality player for this to happen - also were do the extra teams come from - 1 from Mainland and 1 from Nelson Bays/Marlborough?

Any changes would normally take place two seasons out.
