Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery....... I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself. Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king" 'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure' 'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it' Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg



Quote: JTB "The game in America is at an interesting stage at the moment. They are on the verge of sending the current league, based around teams along the Eastern seaboard, professional either in 2011 or 2012. There is also a drive for a 'western expansion' with teams up the Western seaboard springing up clearly with some funding behind them. Here's Seattle's new team, Seattle Force, advertising their launch and new kithttps://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs593.ash2/154561_179979035352991_168069676543927_686080_7411180_n.jpg" >

The following teams cities have expressed an interest in forming a team to join the expansion: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, San Diego, Las Vegas, Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada), Victoria (British Columbia, Canada), Denver, Salt Lake City and Phoenix. That would do me as a tour


Do they have 'real' ale in Vegas ?

I would love this to happen. I honestly feel that if this happened and it was a success - RL would seriously get alot more coverage and respect - it cracked America.

Lets just hope the buffoons running the IRL, RFL and NRL listen to Russell Crowe.

If we could spread to a major market such as America which Union will likely never crack. Then it could serve to make those who in times gone by would have watched Union seeing League instead.

If instead of the league system Russell is proposing, we had a traditional play-off system of a top 8 which we use in SL and in NRL.

With our number 1 team and their number 1 team having the top 2 spaces and getting a second chance etc.

I'd like something similar to happen in South Africa, but it will never happen. South Africa i think could have so much potential for league.

Yup, two of my favourite boozers in the world are in the Four Queens Casino (Chicago Cigar Lounge IIRC) and the brewpub at the Main Street Station casino icon_biggrin.gif

That would be awesome...

I wouldn't rush to make it too big personally (stick to 4 clubs, not 8 imo)

But if we are really want to crack the market there, we would need all the best players there, regardless of club, so maybe some sort of SL vs NRL competition running along side the WCC with the best players from teams outside the top 4.

Oh and make it pay [ireally[/i well for the players. Give them something outside that cap and a reason not to cry off injured.

If they get the right people in charge & we are stuck with the RFL numpties, RL in America will soon overtake RL in Europe.

A pot of tea for four... bitch!!:15430.gif



Could be a double edge sword this imo.

The money, marketing, media exposure, sponsership and professionalism the seppo's will bring to the game will be something beyond the RFL's dampest dream. BUT you just can't help get the feeling though the yanks will not leave the game alone in its current form and will want to make the game "more suited" to the american market if for no other reason than because they can.

On the other hand well done to Russel Crowe for trying to expand the game and promote new ideas. I wish the people running the sport in this country where as forward thinking as he is. He's done wonders for the bunnies over the last few years but his interest obviously extends to the game as a whole. The administration in this country is killing the game with its complacency and should take note...
