I hope those that are saying that the MPL should be expanded to 10 teams will now think again.

Why? It's already an unbalanced competition so having 5-6 sides of a 10 team comp having no show of winning it is the same as having 4-5 of an 8 team comp.

If, and yes it is a big if, the 10 sides started 2016 with the same playing and coaching staff then the relegation scrap would be a season long slug fest. Result wise this is a far more interesting viewing experience tha the top end of the table. 

Couldn't agree more.

[/quote2 more teams = two more bananaskins for complacency to slip up on. What's the downside?
