wouldnt suprise me if superleague ended up like the super 15s southern hemisphere union in 10 years time

clubs in 3 or 4 countries, we'll have uk, france, canada maybe usa

Seen an irate Warrington fan who thinks it's "ridiculous" that they've been allowed to have the name Wolfpack and the RFL should've made them change it as its too similar to Warrington's Wolves name.

Can't wait to see a picture of 3 Toronto fans stood next to a wall with the name "Wolvepack" written on it

"it's a cracker" !

Does Richard 'Geek' Lewis still work at the RFL ?

God help one of the SL clubs in the mid 8s next year. They'll probably be sacrificial lambs to the great god SKY.

But what do we do with the likes of Oxford, Hemel, South Wales, Coventry, Gloucester, & Newcastle. Try and find those clubs a 'multi-millionaire' backer like Toronto have, and let them exceed the salary cap so they can go full-time, sign decent players etc ? IT'S NOT WORKING WITH THOSE TEAMS (where none of the fans wear flat caps), where should we try next, I know, Canada ! FANTASTIC IDEA.

its not working with the flat cap sides either.

There is more point in trying and failing with Toronto or Toulouse than trying and failing again with Leigh or Halifax or Oldham

If you or anyone else can find those clubs a millionaire backer or even any kind of backer then that would be great.

Newcastle has one, he just spends his money on the union team!

very funny. Personally I think the RFL should target Africa next, how about Chad ? Always wanted to go there, imagine (for example) Chad Invincibles v Leigh Centurions....BRING IT ON !

No need to be bitchy ! So if Hull FC were based in a small town, owned their own goround (imagine that) attracted around 700 fans, but had no backer, and were in championship one, you'd be 'all for' WORLD EXPANSION wouldn't you! Folk like you make me laugh, all the 'expansion lovers' are 95% fans of teams who have only ever been in Super League...."we're alright jack, and all that !" How many other UK Sports 'FEEL THE NEED' to have overseas teams in their domestic leagues ? It's not ground breaking, it's pathetic. Catalan Dragons are having an amazing season so far, but when France play England next time around, they will have no chance of winning (as per usual)'. That's progress for you. Hopefully in a few years, Canada will be able to beat the Chad 'national team'!

Chad do not have a 'national team' but last year Canada were able to draw with a Jamaica side that had a large number of Championship players such as Omari Caro, Joel Farrell and Wayne Reittie. www.rlef.eu.com/wcq/report?RLE00000665 BTW the Toronto team was unanimously voted in by the rest of the League One clubs.

There is a club in Hull which fits my description perfectly. Like Leigh, they're small time and contribute the square root of fk all to the sport. And Hull FC haven't always been in Superleague. 1997 was one of my most memorable seasons in fact.

The sport has to at some point move forward, and they wont do with badly run, small clubs holding the good ones back. If Leigh or any other club feel threatened by it, then it's time to up their game.
