[b:1crbsr9w] Toulouse for Championship in 2017, Super League in 2021! Avignon for Championship in 2021, Super League in 2022! [/b:1crbsr9w]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18302.png

You are flat wrong on this. We need a presence in France for our game to have any credibility internationally. That means two French clubs in Super League at the absolute minimum. Four (i.e Catalans, Toulouse, Avignon and Paris). would make the game look even more credible. Toulouse is waiting for the promotion that will start the rugby league ball rolling in France, and it must join up with the 8,000 + fan base of Catalans, bringing its own 8-10,000 to games by its third year of Super League. Once this has been achieved the French can get corporate sponsorship and the TV coverage every week that the game needs.

Whilst yes the international game does lack credibility, one or two French teams in SL won't change that.

For what it's worth I think its more important to the game that the Dragons team in the French league is challenging for the title.

For the game to be better, countries need their own competitive league structure with SL Europe at the top as the pinnacle.

So, we need French teams in an English league to give French rugby league any credibility?

What is wrong with France RL that you need 4 teams in SL and not in any French league.

4 French teams in SL to make the game credible?, if they are that important and great...why not have a French SL division, with the 8000+ fans that attend Catalan it is a winner all the way isnt it?

Quote: Lebron James "The point that the esteemed Gentleman is trying to make is that we need a presence in France. We don’t need Leigh in super league because St Helens and Warrington bring enough of a presence in the north west.

Regards

King James'"


Who mentioned Leigh?

You are obsessed Jean.
