The new management has to be accepted back into Super league before they can buy the club.
Until then they have no responsibility to pay anyone.

Sorry no they haven't, there is no reason at all for them to be accepted back for the to purchase the club they can do that in any league, making a statement that they will only pay the players if they are allowed back is blackmail

It's not really blackmail unless Livolsi & Co have some damaging information on the SL bosses they can use as a lever. The Toronto Wolfpack Ltd. in question is bust, gone, shut down, kaput, no more, and that entity had the legal obligation to pay, but has no money to fund such payments.
Of course the rich ex-directors have shedloads, but their duty to pay is merely a moral one. I certainly agree with you as usual that it isn't right to try to broker a deal by saying they will only put the players food on the table and rescue their bank balances if they are allowed back as TWP 2021 Ltd.
It's nasty, it's mean and they have a bare faced cheek, but all the more reason to say **** off.
Maybe the great Eric Perez can take them all on at Ottawa and pay their back wages?

The players’ unions is trying to hold the game to ransom. Basically, they are saying that players will only be paid the money they are entitled to IF Toronto are allowed back in. It’s a terrible stance and one that they should be embarrassed to be taking.
It’s a devious bribe on Toronto’s part - let us in and we’ll pay the money we should have paid the players anyway. The players’ union should be pushing for those payments anyway as BoC, not getting on board and supporting the very organisation that has failed to pay their members.

Isn't that what unions do, use their influence to get the best they can for their members. |

I wonder if the players union have a view on elite players having to spend six hours on a budget airline (oversize blokes in undersize seats) and then to play a competitive match within two days having spent two nights in budget hostel style accommodation. Surely Super League athletes deserve better than this.
As far as I know TW has not gone into administration or been liquidated. How are they not legally liable for the players wages and outstanding debts to suppliers?
The manipulation of circumstances around payment of players and the demand for a Super League only return is unacceptable.
The TW model has been proved not to work. It would be an absolute disgrace they were to allowed back in any form at any level of UK RL
