I am very worried that the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry with soon to be Duchess Meghan is being held on the same day as Day 1 of the Magic Weekend. The wedding will clash with the very important game between Toronto Wolfpack and Toulouse Olympique, two prime candidates for promotion to Super League in 2019. There are other important games being held on that day, including Catalans against Salford. Meghan, as an American bred woman, needs to be familiarised with British sports, support of which will form part of her future Royal duties.
Prince Harry is, as everyone knows, the patron of the Rugby Football League. One would have thought that the Royal Wedding could have been held on another day, to give the Prince a chance to attend the Magic Weekend. How insensitive of the event planners in the Royal household!
One hopes that Prince Harry will be kept informed of developments in Newcastle-on-Tyne, especially so that he can keep track of the fortunes of the RFL's new Commonwealth partner, Toronto Wolfpack, and the NATO member French cousins in Toulouse.

Service begins at 12 so if he can drag the daft American bint up and down the aisle, sharpish, he might be able to get to a TV for the Toronto 12-45 kick off.
He can then pass the remote to his baldy (half) brother in plenty of time for the FA Cup final.

Prince Harry's real name is Henry I'm surprised you missed that Jean |

Thank your lucky stars there is a Royal wedding on, otherwise you couldnt have sneaked in your obsession with French and Canadian teams under the umbrella of a wedding (2 of which shouldnt be at Magic weekend really).
I would sooner watch a family of Britains biggest council house get married than watch the repetitiveness of another Catalan loss, but you enjoy your Saturday. Asda sell the bumper pack of tissues should you need them when your 3 teams are playing. |

They didn't inform us of that in the French media. |

Being a Republican I'm very sad Markle's dad isn't going. Oh for him to get seriously drunk and make a complete of himself in front of the royals.

| Looks like her father has plumped for watching Magic rather than walking his daughter down the aisle. 
Could always get Harry's dad, James 'the cavalry officer' Hewitt to walk her down instead?
The Princess of Hearts will be turning in her grave! |

It couldn’t be better timed as it now means we’ll avoid it!
Hooray for the RFL.

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
