Quote: Ruune Rebellion "“Our competetion”? Since when was SL, Wakefield’s competetion? You are here by default. Or were you being xenophobic?'"
What kind of school playground comment are you trying to make.
Where has anyone ever said that this is Wakefield's competition or has your paranoia completely taken over.
The Troll Collective have come out with plenty of guff over the last few months but you really do seem in need of help.
The company that runs our sport is registered as Super League (Europe) Ltd https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/03238540
And I'm more than happy to refer to it as our competition (this includes you as well) 
I used the inverted commas to show that this was a figure of speech but, you instead choose to try and make yet another pointed comment towards Wakefield.
I'm truly flattered that you have me a some official spokesperson for the city or the club but, like everyone else (apart from the troll collective), I merely use the forum to express MY opinion. Jog on back under your stone and if you cant contribute something sensible, you bay be better placed playing Candy Crush, if it's not too taxing for you

London Broncos / Quins RL haven't had a single insolvency event. Yes, they rely on the benevolence of their owner, but they're hardly unique in that regard.
What "help" have London had from Red Hall? You seem very sure on this, so providing credible evidence to back up your claims shouldn't be too difficult. |

And what about the people who turn up to watch Hemel home and away every week?
Even if that’s just 12 fans, the principal is the same as if it were 15000.
I’ve always thought the North American franchise system where you can just pluck a team and place it somewhere else is a disgrace!

RL is trying to conquer the world by planting clubs in new areas.
You would think that they would learn after Paris and Celtic Crusaders but, no. In the all new Super League, anything goes as long as the new owner has deep pockets.
It seems that anyone with a few quid can now buy a club, move it half way around the world and keep rolling 
They really ought to test the theory with a buyer for one of the big 4/5 and let's see if the principle still holds firm. |

As for London, great, they are having an excellent season but, when folk talk about expanding the game, perhaps they should look at London's plight and just how long it took for them to produce any of their own players. ![]()
I expect london to get dragged into the mire too...... But we will be in it with a teamm rammed with our Academy grown players who we started to concentrate on during licensing....... Take from that what you will.

If your sole purpose of this forum is to obviously troll, at least spell 'competition' correctly.
You are very quick to sneer at education standards in Wakefield (or Leigh, or any other team you chose to troll) yet you can
barely spell simple words correctly.
Troll. |

Re-type that in French, then our Aussie friend can pretend he understands it! |

It's commendable that London have gone with much of their promotion winning side, including so many "home grown" players.
Assuming that Toronto do gain promotion this season, it will be interesting to see just how many of the current regulations for SL apply to them.
Certainly, running an academy and/or reserve side, playing transatlantic fixtures every other week is just not viable and with the lack of local players, this would effectively mean paying for two full time squads, including accommodation (assuming that they aren't already living on Canada  ) or more likely they would be playing both home and away fixtures in the UK ??
I know that I'm banging on about this beyond the point of boredom but, it does seem that the rules are all discretionary.
Maybe this also fits with the "plan". |

Exactly why the RFL will not enforce an academy, Toronto, New York are pipe dreams, but a lot of blazers have enjoyed various junkets.
RFL is dead if we don't sack everyone at Red Hall, and loosen Hetheringtons grip!

Si votre seul but sur ce forum est évidemment de troll, épelez au moins «compétition» correctement.
Vous vous moquez très vite des normes d’éducation de Wakefield (ou de Leigh, ou de toute autre équipe que vous avez choisie), mais vous pouvez
à peine épeler des mots simples correctement.
Troll.

Hearing the OttawaRL account on twitter is a fake? Wonder if New York can have their bid fast tracked to the Championship to build the rivalry with Toronto..

Should Sky pull out then we would clearly get funding from the RU as their testing ground for new rules. Having adopted our substitutes and video refs they are now thinking about a game clock for scrums and line-outs.

Also talk about doing away with promotion and relegation, due to one of their major sides at risk of relegation.
Maybe they should speak to the good people of Wigan, I think they could help out in this particular area.  |
