I think realistically it would be 2 pro leagues.
Would any of the regions be in the top league? If all teams were in there would eb 9 teams per league, the Scottish teams are better than we are and all the Irish teams so that leaves 3 spots in the Iter 1 competition, like SOM says the only viable league alternative would be an Anglo-Welsh one to my mind.
Second tier would be a fair return. It might provide additional stability compared to now and games vs English clubs would increase attendances. Plus perhaps some player guidance to be playing on the GB league to play for wales which would give more scope.

And English and Welsh league would be good, but I don’t think we on our own are a sufficiently attractive financial or quality proposition.
I'm not so sure, pretty much all the Anglo-Welsh European games have garnered excellent attendances and TNT would still want the TV rights which would probably bring more money than the Viaplay rights.
