Toronto are just about in the Super League now!

Really pleased to if Toronto make it. Might end up a better competition than the NRL eventually.

I reckon Toulouse will be a good bet next year

Is that a joke? Maybe if they get a ton more money from broadcasters it might go back to the 90s comp that featured some pretty heavy hitters not just locally but Australia and the All Blacks. Can't see it happening though...

Yeah, bit of a joke. I like to see the inclusion of French sides and now maybe a Canadian side. Who knows, maybe a US side in years to come or a side from another European country. Spreads the interest around, brings new fans in and maybe sponsors as well.

Good in theory but look at Super Rugby, the distance/travel/time difference created issues and people lost interest.

So did I. Barba let a try in btw

Wigan beat Cas in the second semi final. Poor game, Cas are a shadow of last season when they had Hardaker who was brilliant.

Wire v Wigan at Old Trafford in the final a week today

 

[Hardyman's Yugo]

Shock result in the play offs. Toronto 2 - 4 London. London are in ESL next season. Great defensive performance

Bit of a boring game to watch tbh fantastic defence from London but Toronto’s discipline cost them unfortunately

London’s ambition

And Bradford promoted - the Championship is going to be strong next year; Bradford, Toulouse, Toronto, Widness and only one promotion spot up for grabs!

Workington were done in the play off final when Moimoi was sent off. A fractious game apparently, no way were Bradford going to allow us to beat them 3 times in a season.
