The off season has officially started!

Halifax NS is also home to the utterly fantastic Press Gang restaurant and oyster bar.

What a fantastic idea and once its done we will start up another team in Halifax West Yorkshire called Halifax RLFC and carry on as we are until Halifax Nova Scotia's money man pulls out and they go belly up. This has legs.

If the North American market takes off they'll eventually split from us and form their own American League and then we'll have an 6/8/10 team gap in our tables.

That wont matter, we will be able to start up new teams over here and fill them with all the north american talent that will be produced in the next few years.

Quite possibly, which makes increasing the number of clubs in SL a no brainer.
Although this may mean watering down the player pool in the short term, it would also allow the North American clubs to move into their own league if/when they are ready.

Could also move you to France so you can watch your adopted French team's. Got to be better than Chilly Chorley

If the new north American clubs are successful, and start up junior structures, and can get into the schools, then expect there to be a surplus of north American rugby league players in ten years. Many of those players will likely get contracts in the NRL and Super League, and some with the stronger Championship sides like Villeneuve, Widnes, Wakefield, and Leigh. Meanwhile the Aussies who can't get an NRL contract because of all the north Americans will also move to Super League or the Championship. It only needs four big cities like Toronto, Montreal, New York and Boston to be successful by 2023 and you will see north American players dominate our game in ten years.

Jeany baby

I agree with you Jean all the way mon ami.

If you take the example of Association Football and the MLS there's bags of North American footballers playing in all of the top European Leagues including the Premier and having qualified for next year's World Cup in Russia the USA are red-hot favourites to win it...I just don't understand why no one else can see this?

Oh hang on

They could re-brand and re-invigorate their unpopular Blue Sox tag which would fit in with the transatlantic relationship. What about Halifax Nova Scotia Super Blue Sox?

And remember the MLS spend millions. Has a good structure from high school and upwards although if you are poor from the black and Latin American community chances are you won't ever make it due to the crazy pay to play scheme.

It's gonna take way longer then 10 years to get North America producing top quality rugby league players and into the whole school system. We have to start somewhere though.

We do have to start somewhere, that is correct. Pity the fans of lowly Leigh can't grasp that. By contrast the fans of Super League bound terrific Toulouse are not complaining about Toronto and the emergence of clubs which will follow Toronto from north America, because Toulouse is confident in the strength of its French player base.
