This is excellent news. I can certainly see the Super League of the 2021-23 licensing period shaping up as follows, with a 'Groningen Magic' weekend in early May-time:
Avignon Bisons
Bristol Sonics
Calder Crusaders
Catalan Dragons
Hull RL
Leeds Rhinos
Limerick Shamrocks
London Broncos
Manchester-Salford Reds
Rotterdam Spartans
St Helens
Toulouse Olympique XIII
Warrington Wolves
Wigan Warriors'"
you could probably count the number of dutch RL players on one hand.
Yet by making this list, you're saying that Rotterdam will have a stronger bid than Bradford in ten years...

Sorry, but I think I do know.
Investors do frequently gamble, but not if the odds are astronomical. The chances of a Rotterdam Rugby League club providing a viable investment opportunity within the next 10 years are about as great as the chances of Accrington Stanley winning the Champions League. No business person would put a penny on it, let alone 5 million pounds.

I'll bow to your superior knowledge, so I'll expect the Spartans to be in SL in 2018 and relocated to Norwich by 2019

Need to establish whether there's a dozen or more below average Aussie journeymen available from either the Queensland or NSW Cup first, so they can populate their squad like the rest of the SL whipping boy clubs do.
