What's your rationale for those statements? Well done to TWP and TO so far and Cats are an established SL club, but why are they "the future"? Please expand.

Blue Sox and Centurians had their chance and failed miserably.

The cheating shoits tried to milk so many pens towards the end of tonight's game it's untrue and fortunately Hicks wasn't so keen to be the star of the show as Child was.'"
Think you must have been watching a different game tonight ? Although the last min penalty against you guys did look a terrible call. |

I caught the last 15 minutes or so and there were plenty of Leeds theatrics trying to milk penalties and usually Myler wasn't far away from the action. Throw in the constant whinging from the Leeds fans trying to influence the officials and it's no wonder they get the "Whino's" moniker thrown at them. |

Can't trust Leeds to get anything right but Hicks was ridiculously biased and took the vid ref to overturn 2 bad decisions that favoured Toronto.
If we can't beat Widnes by 14 or more than we deserve to be in the MPG away at London. That stated, I can see it now, 14 up and the ref manufactures a penalty under the sticks for Widnes so Toronto get promoted. The RFL obviously want Toronto in SL and they can't hide it.
Ultimately though, this Leeds side as an SL team are an absolute joke - everyone but Leeds fans and the RFL can see it. If Salford had beaten them last week (a manufactured Hastings ban 2 weeks before and the penalty in the game) and they would already be in the MPG. The way the RFL are manipulating refs is really starting to put me off the entire sport.

Fantastic result for the game.
The Flat Cappers are gutted so that means it's a good thing.. ![]()
Why would all the London hipsters be gutted? Their the only ones wearing flat caps these days...
In all serious though, good luck to Toronto but I can't see the team lasting more than 5 years before the owner gets frustrated, you can already see a noticeable drop in attendances and I just can't see it sticking.
Don't get why the RFL keep gambling on these long shots to grow the game instead of trying to increase grassroots RL, getting the game played in schools etc... like how every other sport tries to grow itself...
From a Leeds perspective I am just happy the season is over!

[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

Complaining about the RFL being 'biased' because of an imaginary scenario that hasn't actually happened and you have made up. Hahahahaha. |

An irrelevant response, please explain why Toronto, Toulouse and Catalans are the future?

but surely the 1 up 1 down system will allow these ever improving championship teams more hope of promotion?
providing the team coming down dont get a £500k hand out every time! |
