| Championship is more exciting than SL at the minute, Saints may as well be handed the hubcap already, teams 5th-8th are too far behind to realistically reach the top4, and the bottom4 settled with 1 round to go

| Looks like Toronto, Toulouse, London and Halifax in that order (2-4 based upon points differential) will be the final four.
Featherstone and Leigh will compete with each other for the Shield.

If Derek leaves, will Leigh implode next year?

| They are stuck with big money Aussies on 2 year contracts and very little income for finishing 5th or 6th.

| Sadly Leigh have overspent massively chasing promotion and could well face administration as a result

| This is a dreadful situation that Leigh finds itself in. The club may have to be abandoned to League One if it cannot pay its bills.

What are you going on about, you know perfectly well Derek is staying, don't act stupid !
Same old, same old
Its boring now
Especially for you Jean - we did not make top 4 - we know, everybody knows.
Toulouse did - well done to them. before you start a thread about that.
Catalans made top 8 - well done to them - start a thread
Toronto - They will have a crack at S.L. next year - go on start a thread
What else, oh yea, no doubt players will be leaving Leigh next season - Go on start a thead about that.
There you go 5 new threads for you to start, why not add a poll that doesn't work to boot.
Fill yer boots

It ain't happening. Good luck in the middle 8's. James Lowes is a legend.

Its boring now 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. :d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg |

Halifax, Leigh, Featherstone, London, Toulouse and Toronto are all far too strong for the Championship, but far too weak for SL.....the 3 tier comp needs to be a 2 tier comp......with 2 up 2 down between the tiers....18 sides in each, 34 games a season top 4 play-off.......

The time is now. Along with a seperate broadcaster deal. Ensuring all Championship/ SL2 is full time.

Indeed......Sky need to be made to come back to the table NOW and discuss a 10 year plan for the game and it's broadcast rights on a global scale........but the "gravy train" that is SL will never endanger their £1.8 million a year......which will probably be £1.3 million a year next time...
