- More changes would reduce burden on players
- Games could be played at neutral venues
The prospect of increasing the number of interchanges and hosting games at a limited number of venues will be discussed this week as Super League aims to take its first steps towards restarting. Clubs are targeting a mid-August return, with the Grand Final pencilled in for November or December.
A series of meetings in the coming days includes a gathering of the laws committee on Wednesday, when increasing the number of interchanges allowed in Super League games will be discussed. Teams are allowed eight interchanges but with the prospect of multiple games each week a meeting of coaches last week indicated a desire to an increase this season to reduce the burden on players.
