650 season ticket holders, 50%+ of all match day tickets are complimentary, a Canadian team owned by an Australian mining mogul and like nearly all RL teams making a loss but for your benefactor. Can’t play at home in February or March ?

Aiming for the riches of Superleague to get financially stable, all these facts and goals are self stated but totally reliant on being an exception in the league like this years fixture farce.

Seriously the RL think this is progress and where the big bucks are coming from to save and grow the sport ?

Looks like another expansion club built on quicksand and we risk losing Leigh for this.... INCREDIBLE

Your figures are factually incorrect...your facts are totally incorrect...your conclusions logically unwarranted or backed up by any form of reality whatsoever ...your bias overly evident.
Sad.

Not as sad as the Toronto club complaining you have to travel to compete in the middle 8s.
What were they expecting would happen???

Toronto travels far more than any other club...they are not upset about traveling, they just thought the scheduling could have been better...so the cookie crumbles, no big deal.

The RFL shouldn’t have to pander to Toronto, or any other one specific club with scheduling. There are other considerations such as availability of stadia which have been known by the RFL for some time. Its clearly a deal or they wouldn’t have mentioned it.

No one is asking anyone to pander to someone. A little consideration would have been nice after all that Toronto has done for everyone, but it is what it is what it is....very minor issue; you are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

Well one down six/seven to go and we get a trip to Canada next year.

Nobles rant about a level playing field for Toronto is a bit rich saying that making them travel weekly is unfair. Seems that they are a ‘house of sand’ be interesting to see if Hull KR get both outstanding Visa’s.

If a player who’s English can play in England or France but not in Canada it’s time to call this stupid experiment off.

And don’t say every SL and Championship team should have signed players and checked they could get a Canadian Visa because in an English game that’s rubbish.

Time the RL made a decision and if it’s a Canadian team playing at an English ground until the winters over this stupidity should end there cos if that’s the future I’m a Dutchman.

They haven’t defied logic this week. Lost narrowly, but at home, to KR.
Shame.

Hull KR deserved to win the multi lined ‘field’ was awful and the Canada and UK anthems a joke it’s a club game.

Where this would improve the game is beyond me....

However Canoemans Wolfpack have bestowed blessings on Hull KR two points icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif

They ran Hull very close, and good crowd at the game, I think they'l be a close bet for promotion, its not KR they have to beat its Widnes and by their showing against Salford, I can't see how they will beat the Wolfpack.

I think Noble has a good point, the game is not awash with money or players and having a tweek to the schedule would have made sense on both the former points, but it is what it is.

I hope they make it, would like to add Toronto to my away games roster, and one end of the ground full of beer tents, very tempting.

Close with the assistance of the chief clown that is James Child. The first Toronto try would have gone to the VR ref over here as it was very close to what looked like the touch line, the white line I think.

Noble has no good points anymore Toronto is his last chance saloon in RL and you can’t have a competition where the one team outside the Country where the game is played does less travelling then the other eleven, oh unless it’s unfair for Toronto to have to do what the Catalans have done ?

If they can’t play to a normal fixture pattern and start in Feb like the rest of the league it’s surely a no go but then the RFL work in mysterious way.

Sorry but beer tents or not this is doomed to failure hence the silence from the RFL

It may be the clubs that have the final say about the Wolfpack.
