Warrington

Hull fc
Toronto

Salford
Wakefield
Hull kr'"
Think you’ve placed us slightly too high. I’d go for 5th or 6th for us.
And Toronto way too highly. I appreciate they’ll make signings but I think their team currently is around 10th 11th SL quality.

They have to let them in. If not they’ll be up for a hell of a court battle.

Boldest is been sane enough to say such a club would finish 6th. They would have an hell of a battle not been bottom.'"
If there's no opposition why isn't it already approved? After all, they've lived up to their billing as overwhelming favourites so far. They've had a full season to sort this but it still isn't.
No, while I agree that TWP probably wouldn't make top 6, I also consider it likely that they wouldn't finish bottom. I think there's a couple of clubs at least that might think the benefits to them of admitting a lamer duck might outweigh the extra £150k. Particularly if Toronto's home fixtures are once again backloaded and given their financial position that would allow them to strengthen through short term signings if the need arose. Their admission would be a bear trap for certain clubs, make no mistake.

| It’s one of those ridiculous situations you wouldn’t see in a major sport. The way RL makes things up on the fly is crazy sometimes.

On what grounds? Elstone's stated it's yet to be determined which suggests to me that TWP has nothing in writing from SL confirming automatic promotion.

| I agree with Gotcha. They will be let in on the basis of the other clubs will receive more money.
The problem for Toronto will be the home and away fixtures. There is no way they will be allowed to play a batch of fixtures at home as it will give them a major advantage.
They will spend heavily if and when they make Super League. There will be some superstars heading to Canada from the NRL I suspect but only time will tell

| To buy let them in would be ridiculous. By far the most positive thing to happen in RL in recent memory

Nonsense, their players wouldn’t be playing if they weren’t been paid.
Something I don’t think has been considered, if Toronto don’t get any Sky money, Sky will have no right to show their games, would sky be happy with this?

Sky don’t pay the clubs. Sky pay the central pot, from which clubs are paid. The agreement would be they can’t take any money from that central pot, no argument with Sky.
And you misunderstood what rhinomark said. He didn’t say the players, he said the clubs where those players were signed from.
