| So...after a roller coaster of a season in the Championship where there seemed to be more interest and excitement than in SL, it comes down to 80 minutes and 2 sides who know each other well, having met 3 times already this year.
Toronto with home advantage and an extra couple of days in Canada having flown on Tuesday (London on Thursday) will be favourites and they have blazed a trail all year, deservedly winning the hub cap.
London have shocked a few, especially after losing their coach at the end of last year and appointing a seemingly unqualified Danny Ward and after surviving a mid season dip, secured 2nd spot with gritty wins over Fev, Fax and Toulouse, so we have the 2019 Grand Final decider that the RFL want 12 months early.
Both sides have beaten 2 SL sides and both deserve to be here!
My Heart says London by 7 points, my head on the other hand says Toronto by plenty........COME ON YOU BRONCOS!
Toronto 28 London 12

| Will make the Championship really interesting next season.Hoping Widnes bounce back.The simple fact is it meant more to the London players yesterday.Toronto are just a team of jobbers with no affinity to the franchise they are representing Has beens and few overpaid antipodeans who thought they would just bully London aka Rowleys only plan. Well done London

If they fail to make it next year, then you may see them fold but I fully expect them to go for it next year!'"
They are in for the long haul. You don't sped the amount of money the owner does for the short time and he can afford it

| Well done London.
I dont know why anyone would want Toronto to go away. Toronto can come again and hopefully it wont be too long before they are also in SL.

| I have no problem with Toronto in SL and supported their fight for an SL place right up until after their win against Leeds. While it shouldn't bother me, their chants of Widnes after that game made me think, F**K em, c'mon London.
As for the MPG itself, they needed a cool head to calm the troops down and churn out their sets instead of trying to knock ten bells out of the opposition. A level head would have seen them through the game easily imo.
