Quote: wrencat1873 "

having Toulouse and London in the top flight, in ADDITION to the current 12 clubs would be sensible from a RL point of view.

We have to find a way to encourage more interest and investment, end of.

'"


After 25 years most in Superleague London now attract no investment at all from London

Their Northerner chairman/owner is the only investor.

One of the biggest and richest capitols in Europe and no interest or investment END OF

Quote: wrencat1873 "

Just a small correction Donny, there were only 12 clubs in SL in 1996 (not 14) and on the basis that Paris were inaugural members, in a move to "expand" the game, really, we're looking at 11 English clubs for the vast majority of the SL era, plus 1 French club

It's almost as though you are trying to deliberately skew the numbers ?

'"


Leave it out, it's not about me and your "correction" is wrong, read the post - I was talking about 1999 "Back in 1999 we had 14 English SL clubs"

Quote: wrencat1873 "

Once again, for the record, there should need to be a minimum number of French qualifying players in the Catalan (and Toulouse) sides, assuming that this can be properly agreed.

'"


It's already done, last night top of the table Les Catalans put Morgue, Yaha, Laguerre, Da Costa, Bousquet, Julian, Goudemond Belmas and Baitieri in the side and that's NINE Frenchmen. I was looking to see if Israel Folau was anywhere to be seen but clearly he was not there.

There's been a massive switch by les Catalans to become a real French team playing the best French players and it's blooming marvelous.

You can look out for some sort of public announcement Gausch has been given the hard word that he won't be in Superleague 2022 unless he does the job he was allowed in to do which is be a conduit for quality French players.

Toulouse are stuffed for Superleague next year. They aren't going to be promoted on winning the Championship on "percentages" with loads of games not been played, and certainly aren't going to be promoted using English and Aussie players......

And they aren't, as a Faux "French club" going to get the nod over Leigh staying in Superleague...........

Sorry I haven't got an article from Rugby Leaguer journo's to confirm this, but I do have a pair of eyes............

My apologies, that must have been the season pre the Hudd-Sheff merger and the Gateshead - Hull merger. icon_surprised.gifops:
Neither of which have anything to do with this thread.

Good win for Catalan last night though ?

Quote: Willzay "Well it’s not really a French Revolution if the big hitters behind said revolution aren’t French.
Nine Frenchmen gave Cas a big hitting last night, and you can bet if there are any French lads playing for Toulouse who are good enough they will be taken by Gausch.

Nothing surprising here, Superleague have been patient enough this last 15 years, but if the SKY money is being heavily slashed then Gausch needs to play the game if he want's to have some of that money. He's had 15 years to find a regular French TV contract...

The SL bosses were furious with him over Folau, and the total lack of any French player development. The TV deal being slashed obviously meant Gausch was also in real danger of being himself cut out. We've had too much Fantasy Rugby League this las few years.

Remember "Toronto" "New York" "Ottawa" icon_biggrin.gif and the recent "who will be next after Catalans and Toulouse"??

There is the reality of one small English TV deal so goggle eyed fantasy fans icon_eek.gif icon_eek.gif icon_eek.gif can forget Adelaide Rams coming in next year despite Lenegan OK'ing this in public......

It would not have been if their side had been all Aussie/English with Israel Folau poncing about.

It had nine Frenchmen and as such was a major major Triumph way way beyond the "2 points"
