| I might be wrong but can someone help me understand this. On Thursday Toronto announced they have just signed Mason Caton-Brown until the end of the season and for the qualifiers. How can this be done when the dead line for new signings was Friday 27 July Have I Missed something or am I just being thick

Apparently the deal was done last week .............

...... so why it's taken a week to be announced is a mystery. However, the cynics may argue that it's because Toronto are subject to different rules, but the RL don't want to see they're giving Toronto special treatment so they pretended it was done a week earlier.

| And on the same theme I noticed yesterday that Salford have signed a player from Hull FC and he can also play in the middle eights!

| All very suspicious. I'd think it very odd if Fax announced a signing today but claimed it was closed before the deadline.

| I truly think (hope) that Toronto could be there for the taking if all the stars align. We absolutely have to guard against what happened last time where they set out to and successfully managed to blow us out in the first 15 mins. Weather that storm and just maybe we can do it. The intensity at London should help us in that regard perhaps?
I still have the dilemna regarding TW going up (buggering off) or falling flat on their face. Either way we will still have a relatively strong side in their place if they succeed? Makes my skin crawl reading that idiot Kayakman's comments (TO HIMSELF!!) on their forum so losing him may make it worthwhile at least.
I can't make this game due to a family holiday - will their media team be showing it on TV does anybody know?
Good luck Fax.

| Having watched the CC semis today, 2 things struck me.
Firstly, even though they've been playing well anyway, Catalans performance shows how these supposedly superior teams can be turned over.
Secondly, we should have nothing to fear from Leeds, they were awful. And with those 2 clowns Sinfield (great player, but looks gormless as a coach) and Lowes in charge, by the time we play them they'll be even worse. There's a very real chance they could get relegated, and wouldn't it be grrrreat if we helped to hammer the final nail in the coffin?

| I think we can give Toronto a right shock right up them with the team we have available now. If Fev can beat them then so can we. Fullstop. Go for it boys !! Nothing to fear
