I feel sorry for everyone who bought into the idea of expanding into North America starting with Toronto. I think they were sold a pup from the get go. The financial burden put on that new club, in my opinion, was always going to see them go under, Covid just hastened the event. For mine, if we as a sport, want RL to survive we need to stop looking for quick fixes abroad and start putting more resource into the grass roots game. We need to find a way to build a strong robust structure starting at the bottom. If we don't, I honestly believe there is a danger that full time professional RL clubs could be a dying breed, extinct with in 20 years.
