| Quote Faxlore="Faxlore"Right ? I must be a bit thick when it comes to how the lower Aussi leagues work. You will have to explain it me. Is the 'Cup' different league compations in the NSW set up or are the cups like Northern rail/Challenge cup set up. if so where is their league. Sorry for being so thick
 '"
I've no idea. I just saw it on a drop down box. It may be that the NSW Cup is the main semi-pro league and the Ron Massey Cup (formerly Jim Beam Cup) is the "second" team? |

The Ron Massey is 2nd tier (like Championships) for Sydney feeder clubs. Queensland have a similar comp (Think our League split by region rather than ability).
The Holden Cup (NRL U20's) is higher profile over there so although not 2nd tier is viewed as more prestigious.
Hope this explains thing simply enough. It gets difficult to grasp cos things are done differently over there

I disagree there Rich , what if the next man is an Idiot ?What does that make you ?And answer me this , if a team plays six fixtures twice and the outcome of plural games is times by two , would dlouble points be carried over to the middle eight games , with 4 up and 4 down , which would count as group games . |

as far as I understand the NSW Cup & Queensland Cup are level 2 competitions and the Ron Massey Cup level 3. You can play in both during a season but the Ron Massey is a lower grade and there are eligibility rules preventing (for instance) players who have played most of the season in NSW Cup from dropping to Ron Massey for finals etc, also I don't think top 25 contracted players from the NRL club are allowed to drop further down than NSW Cup (ie they can't play in Ron Massey).
