Never one to really 'embrace' monumental change and break tradition but there's something about having a decent American influence on RL that would be very interesting!

The biggest club, Jacksonville Axemen, has a larger average crowd than Leigh. They were talking about introducing a full-time league if they could secure a TV deal, but so far there hasn't been any sign of this actually happening. |

I seem to remember that an ex-Rovers player had an involvement with rugby in America - Tim Irons - it was some sort of deal with the RFL that he thought had the potential to make him rich.

Rovers had a couple of Americans playing in the A team in 1980 - Tim Anchors and Pat Kelly.
IIRC they made their first team debuts in the Premiership defeat at Widnes the week before the 1980 Cup Final. |

Yeah I saw it on Orange County Choppers of all things! They were making a bike for Crowe and he took them to the game. |
