I know I'll probably get crucified on here for posting this, but what the hell !!! ......

I don't think that Fax, Fev or Leigh will ever get into Super League under current Red Hall guidelines. They are hellbent on 'expansion' and I think they will be wanting to REDUCE the number of SL teams in Yorkshire.

Leigh are just too close to Wigan - again that wouldn't be expansion.

Widnes have an outside chance as have a Cumbria team - if anyone get's their act together sufficiently.

Toulouse would be seen as expansion, even though I don't think there'll be sufficient talent in France to sustain 2 x SL teams in the forseeable future. Therefore, a strong Aussie contingent would be ever present.

For the 2012 season (as long as qualifying rules are met by these clubs) I think that it will be either Toulouse, Widnes or a Cumbrian team.

For 2015 I can see a Scottish and an Irish team throwing their hats into the ring.

Just going on the fact we missed out on the 3 Fijians and have also sacked Ian Bell. They will all have been on a good contract.

Unless Broadbent gets injured.

if the celtic situation doesnt improve then maybe expansion wont appear such a graceful option.
even if it does get the nod, they may want to avoid entering a cumbrian team because its such a depressing place for people to visit

Bloomin 'eck everyone keeps banging on about our squad of 25, your website names 41 in the first team! Surely that's not right?

Fair enough, so you could potentially sign more than 4, or 1 'superstar'!

Why was Bell sacked, thought he was one of your best players when we played at yours.

is that really the best you can muster ?
