GeordieSaint Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 So you want Toronto to fail as they've acquired some former Leigh players? I guess you aren't interested in growing the sport in a new nation then which could have a real positive impact on the sport internationally...

Scubby Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Regardless of how much game time he gets, FFMM is a name and a hairstyle they can market. Good on Toronto he will be great for PR and will run hard as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MZH Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Even at his age he can still more than do a job at that level, and as mentioned he's a recognised and marketable name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 He's stepping down a division so, if he can stay fit enough to play, he'll do alright. If he can't, he can be part of the PR team.

Sco77 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Why all the negativity? It's good for them to keep building, especially with someone that can be really put to use in the marketing department!! Well done TWP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryO Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Why all the negativity? It's good for them to keep building, especially with someone that can be really put to use in the marketing department!! Well done TWP! Like that TWP Sco77, first bit of marketing from you, I will always think of them as the TWERPS from now on. As for FFMM, being a Leigh fan I can really see the worth in the twerps getting him on board, in his time at Leigh he really did become an iconic figure so readily doing the off field stuff around town and never without a smile on his face, they would not need to play him away, save him for a couple of 15 min spells in each half and always the last 15 mins of the game and setting him up for a try which I believe would be well within their capabilities to send the fans home with him in their thoughts. I am considering seeing what odds I will get at the bookies for the twerps to go unbeaten in the league and have three scores at or over 100 points, such in my opinion is the quality of their team over their divisional counterparts.

fev4evatiggerneva Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Cant see how its developing the game its a load of lads from yorkshire and lancashire,the m62 corridor there supposed to be trying to expand from,mixed with a few aussies, training at brighouse but playing there home games at other side of world. Be good if in 10 years time they had a competative international team in canada, but i dont think a bankrolled team witch will probably buy its way to sl, is the way forward, probably another celtic crusaders, money will dry up and go #### up.

londonrlfan Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Will there even be a single Canadian (or American) player in this team?? One so far, but they're having a trial match with the players from the tryouts and will sign a few from there. What happened to those Canadians who were on trial with Parramatta? I think one signed to Wentworthville. Surely they'd be good enough for League One? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big scores in one sided games could put Toronto spectators off the game. But they need a good enough team to go up. Tricky balancing act that.

wackojacko Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I'm pretty sure the one who signed to Wentworthville has been signed by Toronto, can't remember his name though! Ryan Burroughs, American fella though. According to the BBC Manchester video, they've sold 5,000 season tickets already. If that is true then I'll be ecstatic.

damp squib Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Wonder how many canadians are in the raptors or bluejays teams? Exactly. People are projecting British sports culture on a Canadian team. It won't matter to the Toronto fans where the players are from. The other thing to bear in mind is that Catalans took 10 years to start producing decent numbers of players from a relatively strong RL area. People here are expecting Toronto to create players from nothing before their pre-season even started. They have money. Rugby League needs money. That's more than enough for now.
