Toronto looking @ another big Rugby Union player
The signing of Leicester and England rugby union Test centre Manu Tuilagi would be an enormous boost for Toronto, as he would be the partner to recently acquired ace centre Richard Leutele (I don't know what would happen to Toronto's current other centre Chase Stanley). The linking of Sonny Bill Williams with either Leutele or Tuilagi as an edge combination will be devastating to the other Super League clubs. Lots of tries will come from their combination.
However Toronto still needs to sign a quality half and two good props in order to be a good chance of winning Super League.
On the other hand all these signings mean that Toronto will definitely be in the Super League playoffs, and will give the powerful clubs such as St Helens, Wigan, Warrington and Catalans a good run for their money.

So you have written off,among others, Hull FC after nominating one of their players for MOS - will bookmark this post for later.

How have I written them off?
I deliberately wrote "the powerful clubs such as..." thereby leaving open the possibility that there could be some powerful clubs other than the ones I named.

Your time zone clock is out one hour-- it is currently 1108 am in the shire. Touche!

| Don't watch Union but always thought Manu Tuilagi looks like a player with the build for Rugby League.
Kyle Eastmond would have been a good signing for them at half back.
They should get Izzy Falou. I don't think the RFL would try and ban him.
As a new franchise Toronto should have salary cap exemptions. The sport should be doing what it takes to make them successful.

Manu has been very injury prone over the past few seasons.
A season in RL could well break him further.

I agree. Injuries meant he only had 2 caps in what 6 years due to injuries when normally he would have been the first name on the team sheet.

| If you can sign a Union player free of salary cap, I'd throw my money at Semi Radradra or Marika Koroibete or both.
$BW was over the hill last time he had a go at playing League, and that was years ago.

Or being a complete & utter RACIST like David Argyle perhaps ?

So I don't think it is about income generation for Toronto, therefore the signing has to be for on field purposes rather than off-field'"
They may be able to give an actual attendance figure instead of a best case scenario,
Some of their attendance numbers were close to capacity when the ground wasn't half full.
I know there is the beer festival round the back but, that must have been doing some HUGE trade during some of their games.

Do you mean the same SBW who was pivotal in the Roosters winning the premiership. He was superb.

For limited minutes in a few big games.
