 This is a far bigger fish than the usual whitebait I pick up with my sally cinnamon-wannabe style postings.

I'm not entirely convinced you were on the wind up although to be honest, that many people genuinely believe what you wrote anyway so even if you were it's good to set the record straight!
A 5 minute tour of the other teams boards demonstrates the animosity lots feel towards the RFL, particularly from Salford and widnes fans. I find that baffling considering one, and probably both, is about to get promoted without having to kick a ball. I presume it's only corruption if their applications are refused.

Oh dear. This has backfired spectacularly. Ah well.
Do you know when the first RL clubs were formed in the south of France and Wales compared to Doncaster and Sheffield?

| Quote just_browny="just_browny"The RFL are totally corrupt and have no interest in helping traditional RL clubs like Doncaster and Sheffield, instead concentrating on Johnny-come-latelies like teams based in Perpignan and Wales.
Richard Lewis is simply a terrible administrator. Under his command the RFL has gone from the fine profit-making institution he inherited from Rodney Walker into a loss-making joke riddled with inconsistency. Just look at the Hull FC/Challenge Cup debacle: why didn't he apply the rules? They would have kicked them out in football.
I think we'll see Toulouse and Celtic because the rugby league couldn't organise a soirée in a brasserie.

Probably because the rules didn't exist. Everyone knew (including Hull FC) that they had done wrong, unfortunately they hadn't broken the rules...

I was on the verge of going into full-time residence on the Wigan board.
I suppose I should contribute seriously to the thread and say I'd pick the curret twelve plus Widnes and Toulouse. In reality I think it will be Salford and Widnes.

| Decision to move the Magic weekend to Scotland is on the back of the RFL decision to give the Crusaders a License next year. i.e there is no longer a need to promote the game in South Wales whilst they have a Super League side and thus allowing the game to open up new territories and bring more money into the game.

Quote oli30045="oli30045"Have to say all 12 SL Teams with Celtic and Salford. Would love Widnes to get one but their crowds and on pitch performances arent good enough.
"Murryfield Magic Games"
Leeds vs Stains
Wire vs Wigan
Quins vs Bradford
Catalan vs Hudds
Cas vs Wakey
Celtic vs Salford
Hull vs Hull KR
All Evenly matched games IMO (With Exception to Wakey vs Cas only based on this years games)'" What about Salfords crowds.
