Are you sure you're not just miguided like Dico suggests? He's better placed than you are to make a judgement because he's a fan of a SL club. Please doff your cap next time.

| It's been poor for a couple of years Matt since they brought it up to 14 teams. Dreadful every week! They need to do something in my view to make it less of a forwards battle and it more about skill and play from the backs.

| Think the interchange laws have killed it, to be honest as you'd got permanently fresh forwards on the field.

What club would that be then? Because last time I checked, Stade Francais XIII was not an established club in Paris. They have an established union team, but so what? What has changing London Broncos to Harlequins Rugby League done for them?
If a S14 club from South Africa decided to put in an NRL bid, would the NRL drop everything for them?

Look sunshine. It's French innit? It's Paris - it has that certain [ije ne sais quoi [/i, ergo, it's gonna bloody work! Just take Dally M's word for it! You can't mention the Harlequins comparison either. It doesn't fit into Dally's "Westworld".

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

What does that tell you about the areas prospects if the choice is no club or a poorly supported financially draining club that doesn't really have much of a future in its current guise?
If that's the choice in Paris, I'd rather promote someone else. Thanks for helping make my point.

Have you?

I don't see any mention in there about the NRL, or about dropping other plans. You mentioned about what you'd do to expand into a tough market. Not that you'd pick that over expanding into planned market with less glamour but more chance of success.
Just answer the question rather than do your usual "dodging the bullet" style replies which don't get anybody anywhere. If a S14 team from South Africa decided they wanted an NRL team, would you cancel all your expansion plans and let them in over the rest?
