| Quote: Roy Haggerty "I think Widnes might save themselves.
Widnes have finally won one to remind themselves they can play.
Toronto have flattered to deceive in these play-offs and look to me to be getting worse, not better, with each game. I see Widnes beating them in Canada, and Leeds beating them soundly at Headingly. They then finish on 6 points but the two defeats will take their PD into negative territory.
Toulouse will lose to Salford at Salford, and given that Hull KR still need points to be safe, I think they'll go all out in France and beat Touolouse there. Toulouse finish on 4 points.
London will lose to Salford, but beat Halifax, finishing on 6 points. Depending on the scores of those games, they may finish above Toronto.
Widnes - this is my left-field prediction - will win both their remaining fixtures. I think they're too good for a declining Toronto, as above. But I also think they'll come up against a Hull KR side in their last game who are safe on 10 points after beating Toulouse in France. If that's the case, I would rpedict they'll be playing a Hull KR side even their own fans will struggle to recognise, and will claim an easy win. That would see Widnes finish on 6 points with a real chance to improve their points difference.
So we end up with 3 teams on 6 points, and the MPG teams decided on points difference. I think Widnes will be in it, and will have too much for either London or Toronto - whichever of those two teams has the highest PD.
Of course, when Toulouse and Toronto both win this weekend, I reserve the right to come back and delete this post.'"
Well, this post has aged well....

| Well done to Toronto, Toulouse, London and Catalans. There is now a real possibility two expansion clubs will gain promotion, this is brilliant for the game of rugby league.

Rubbish, flights are available for under £400. This is not a huge cost for full time professional clubs. Most Super League clubs will make the trip once a year.

Can you remember what the financial state of the game actually is ??
Leigh, Fev, Salford and Widnes all rolling in cash
I know that you want to replace these clubs (and Wakefield) with your new mercenary clubs but, where do you actually see the future of the game, when we are down to half a dozen top flight UK clubs and the rest playing in some semi professional pop n crisp league, it should be a huge draw for the rugby minded aspirational kids.
You and your ilk are doing more for killing the sport than RU have done over the last 30 years.
If you carry on down this path, you will probably find Wigan, Hull, Saints and Leeds all throwing their cap in with the Yawnion lot.

Exactly.
I'm perfectly fine with UK clubs joining as there may be decent away fan numbers, but Toronto bring no one. Even Catalan hardly bring anyone.
Doesn't take much more than one richer backer deciding he wants to retire to see one of the "big" clubs go into freefall with no funding. Really need a solid supporter base or the game is finished. This isn't football where the big clubs can live off sponsorship and TV revenue alone.

They won’t be a Championship club in 2019, and as we’re talking travel costs to Toronto, no Championship or League one club has had to pay for their own travel, it’s all been covered by the Wolfpack’s fantastic owner David Argyle.
