Ahhh!
I'm surprised it wasn't discussed on the TIW board afterwards.

On what basis could SOC take the RFL to court? If you had concrete rules and a legally set of binding criteria then maybe you'd have a case but the sheer vagueness of the whole franchise system makes legal action nigh on impossible - not to mention the risk of alienating the RFL forever should a course of action be started.
Come on, even Jiffy knows all this !

That's the thing which actually might make it possible imo. Widnes would probably have to win everything from now on though to have a strong case.
A lot would also depend on which club they put in ahead of us too. Personally I doubt he'd take them to court. I think he'd just pack it in. And I wouldn't blame him for doing so.

The last franchises couldnt be appealed against, the next ones are open.........safe to say we are the strongest link so nobody will moan when we get in.
Steve O has already been told.

| Such crazy talk (caused by offseason boredom - so Vikingman is excused for his Jiffyness) is irrelevant anyway. Widnes are in in 2012. Go forth and prepare for SL and all the joyousness that brings.

We havent had a signing for weeks, it can make a man crazy.
But as usual 4 are coming along at once this week.
Like buses except instead of two at once we get four.

Are they as big as buses? Like, massive prop forwards and second rowers. Are they like, as big as our Frank? Our Susan?
I expect quality, or else i'll be trolling like a trolling thing on here and you'll have to tell me to STFU again.

We already have the quality rich, nobody and i repeat nobody will mess with our front row next year. We still have superstar thacks at 6 and James Ford at Full Back is a speed demon. Superstar Paddy Flynn and Deano on the wings. And who can forget Toa Balboa. Smiffy at 9 and a fat bruiser of the bench in Coyle and we'll be rocking.
Bring on your OAP's................................and butterhands.

None of these fill me with any trepidation. Very ordinary. For your sake these "fantastic four" announcements this week need to be top drawer or it's "mid-table sat on a ticked box" mediocrity for the Vikings next year.
