I know that
Exactly, I think that it would make English RL as a whole much, much stronger. The so-called "smaller" clubs from SL such as my team Cas would probably benefit, but Hull KR would struggle imo who haven't got that many English players coming through.

we'll just use our superior cash flow to sign your decent jnrs!

well whilst our sugar daddy is around!

Perth ain't got one JB, what next

the standard will drop no doubt.

The NRL salary cap is also being increased in accordance with the new TV deal, so top aussies will go home, average aussies will fill the expansion clubs and the cream of British talent will be picked off by the NRL. The exchange rate also harms English clubs trying lure the best aussies.

Instead of trying to emulate your game we may try something that will actually change the balance of power .


Maybe genetic modifications, as a last hope .


It will be a poorer competition if your 2nd / 3rd string players go home.

Havent you seen the new sky sl intro? those iron men will rip the ockers to bits

with all due respect good sir, whilst i can see what your getting at. i dont see what how those links prove the 'Production of quality players in expansion areas'
the two welsh lads were playing it at school, so its not like they wouldnt have were it not for the influence of the crusaders. elima is french and france is not an expansion area, youve had your own league for donkeys years.
the scottish lad was playing for an amateur team and is scotland really an expansion area at the moment? the two welsh lads and the scotish lad havent really been 'produced' by anyone, they decided to take up the game in the absence of a pro or semi pro rugby league set up in their area, or regardless of the presence of one. and these are places that have had a amateur rugby league presence for years.
with regards to rinaldi, see points about elima above.
and rhys wlliams was 'produced' by the Scarlets, a rugby union team.
i fail to see the point of these links.

They are all players at M62 clubs, and do not come from the M62 corrider, hence they are players from expansion areas
