A strong Toulouse to eventually rival Catalans will be a great boost for French RL. As i see it, a potential of a french derby (of sorts) would massively increase the interest of the game in France. Given time, other teams could grow and a real French league which Catalans and Toulouse could be part of, leaving SL. But still being part of the Challenge cup competitions. All of this is many moons away though

That is correct.
There'll be no more fast-tracking direct into SL1. |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

So they are asking to enter the Championship?

Notwithstanding their recent media release, Toulouse are actually asking to be admitted direct to the new "Super League 2" with effect from it's inaugural season, 2015. |

[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow]

A team in a large French rugby city that has a booming economy, nah!!!!
What we need is a team from Yorkshire, that owes the bank a million quid and has 3k fans. We don't have enough of them!

If they're well funded, have a decent following, can throw together a competitive team and they have a long term plan they're already be better than half of SL.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

I don't think we can say that SL is meant to benefit the English game. It is called SLE.
That being said, the incumbants are hardly going to be daft enough to vote one of themselves out of the gravy train. So SL2 would be possibly the only viable option. But once in there, then it may only take 1 year to get to SL1. Spend at max cap and make sure you top 17 are as good as an average SL1 17 and fill the rest with youth.
If you make it you can look more long term at building from within.

I'm not even going to bite on that one, nice attempt to switch from Toulouse into WC history re-write.
As they say in star wars, stay on target.
