Weather would allow games through all of April and May in Toronto and even late March. Toronto FC play outdoors then. Stand down the cavalry.

February is when the League start and runs into early March, the weeks when weather won’t allow games.

Well spotted Sir Kev. Simple solution - kick Wigan out too then!

I have since checked Toronto FC's home games for 2017 and 2018. They have played as early as the last week in Feb/first week in March. Their field is 300m away from Lamport.

Non-Toronto residents can stop uninformed speculation about when Wolfpack can play home games. It's not going to knock the SL schedule out of whack.

That’s fine then, alternate home and away same as everyone else.

How about we move the start of season back just one week, plenty games in the U.K get called off in Feb/March & allow TW their 1st two games be away, then home/away rest of season + 2 home at some point ?

Easy !

It's crazy how the season starts too early. Have it aligned with the start of the NRL season or at best a week before?? Too logical for the RFL and SL though....

But everyone else doesn’t alternate home and away, for example Leeds had 6 occasions when they played either 2 home or 2 away games in a row and even had 3 home games in a row this season. Wigan have a stretch of away games when their rental ground is unavailable.

The 2 games over the Easter weekend should have been scrapped years ago for all players welfare

But SOO is worth it?
Toronto should play away on the Maundy Thursday as do their Monday opponents and they share the same flights and disadvantages......simplz

Agreed!

Why, just to allow TWP to play alternate games ?

I dont have an issue with them playing 2 home then 2 away games etc.
However, some people have already pinned their hope on them "saving RL" in the UK. However, if we lose a British club from SL to allow them to compete in SL, they are actually doing the opposite AND reducing the number of FT British players.
They should be "extra" not instead.
The NRL seems to cope well with 16 sides and yet, SL keeps reducing the numbers "to improve quality", something which just hasn't happened.

So a bad extensive winter in Toronto could see them play around 9 away games up to the magic weekend I think that would mess up the home and away weekly format for the rest of the other teams.
The biggest danger is if Toronto have to postpone say 2 games in mid March they would have to forfeit those home games because teams won’t want a re arranged fixture travelling mid week to Toronto.
I should imagine airline costs will increase in the spring when most clubs start to play across the Atlantic.
As for the Easter weekend all teams should be playing Friday and Monday and not Thursday and Monday which could be the possibility for 4 teams if Toronto is in the mix.

To avoid any team having to travel 5 timezones at Easter lets try something new and innovative that will allow us to take the game to new market. Toronto play both their Easter games in Tasillaq, Greenland

Shame that ittoqqortoormiit is only -1hr, much better name! (Although it’s Danish name is Scorsbysund).
