Also it's not like they didn't know about the system beforehand. Will the same playoff format happen next year with 12 teams? It's true though. A team that finishes top of the league should win it.

Ponty voted FOR playoffs, Llanelli voted AGAINST.

Ponty supporters would be bitter whatever. There attitudes were apauling after we won there last season and should we repeat that same feat this year i suspect they would be even more bitter. We have a lot of rugby to play before then mind. As for Ponty being a great team historically i beg to differ because they were only at the top of the ladder during during the Chief, Neil Jenkins Bezzani era previous to that they were not one of the powers of Welsh rugby.

Seconded. People have short memories about Ponty - many of us will have witnessed the mindless violence that existed whenever we played Ponty and led to us cancelling fixtures against them. If it wasn't for leagues, we would bother with them IMO.

Animals on the pitch in the 80's, especially when they committed the cowardly act of laying out Russell Cornelius ( I think it was him)) with a punch from behind. Graceless loosers on the terrace for most games we've played up there.

Richmond, then we met Swansea on the wednesday night dropped our pack, picked reserves and west wales players and beat the jacks.

Nope it was Pontypridd, definitely. The only reason that we started playing them again was the advent of leagues and we played them in the first game at home and they finished with 13.
