| It's confirmed. Looks like they have also signed Jamie Jones Buchanan. RFL must feel a little foolish now - they will win that division by a country mile and would unquestionably be a Top 4 Championship team. In fact they would be Top 2 material. Why on earth are they languishing in Champ 1?

Agreed, they didn't need to sign so many quality players for Champ 1......but there you go.

Why on earth is that the entry point? - what purpose will next season serve for the club or their opponents in that division? Other than the old "serve your time" mentality.

| Where would you want a new team to start, in SL instead of Leigh?

| Great signing for Toronto, exactly the type of signing to get people interested in the sport.
Will do well in that league but agree you should start at the bottom.
Its about doing it right on & off the field and building a fan base with a winning team should help more than if struggling.
Of course its also sport and anything can happen on the field!

| What is the maximum weight allowance on transatlantic flights? Fui is a big lad. Air Canada has already seen Liam redefining the excess baggage allowance.
In seriousness, good luck, Big 'Un. You and a very few of the others seven didn't jump ship until it had sailed.

There is a tendency in North American sport to enjoy high scoring, end to end games. Basketball is the prime example as, for Bongser, the only mild interest is stirred by the team in possession occasionally missing. C0ck-oops become the new goals or tries for the spectator.
If Toronno (sic) simply receive the ball from every kick-off occasioned by their previous score and, probably inside a couple of minutes, restart the cycle it would fit only half of the N Am'n preference.
Bongser thinks that Rowley-Coaster is planning a Challenge Cup run attempt. That might make the N Americans think that they own the roost. Only way to explain it?
Other slants welcome.

They are a brand new club based a 7 hour flight away from all of their opponents, so while they may have a strong squad, there's probably a number of off field and logistical issues they need to iron out. They'll probably be learning lessons off field without too many worries about results on it.
Also - There first 17-19 looks very strong, don't know much about how much depth they'll have after that.
