That will water down the talent pool a bit. Expect there will be increased interest in UK based players.
And some in SL want to go to 14, more demand from the pool plus SL Increasing the non fed player quota to 10 .

Someone said there are 18 teams in the NRL and Perth are applying to join.
Perth are already in, Mal Meninga will be their first coach, they will join the comp in the 2027 season, a year after a team from Papua New Guinea will join

Some big results this round Barrow bt Bradford, Toulouse losing yesterday, London putting 70 on Hunslet. The top 6 is getting very tight.

Word is any extra teams would not be getting any Sky money for the first season until they can re negotiate the contract.

I would imagine the only way we would go full time would be in SL
Or that promotion is available automatically into SL, being full time in the championship is folly, as pointed out if lads have good paying jobs plus part time rugby money they would have to be offered big money to go full time and on 2-3000 crowds and no tv money it would be financial suicide.

Many of you will have seen the red berets on sale. I'm setting off to France tomorrow with the remaining stock which I will have with me in Toulouse available at 15€.
Just to be clear these have been produced by me and not the club however they are not for my profit. There will be a small excess and my intention is to buy a shirt and get the players to sign it. David Bottomley has agreed to expedite this. The money raised from selling the shirt through EBay auction will be going to a Children's Cancer charity as my wife's best friends first grandchild was diagnosed with cancer at six months old. He's now six and has never had a childhood and the charity has been a huge help.
Hope you understand and approve and, if so, help by buying a hat.
Many thanks
Where and when will you be selling them?

Because it falls under the foundation, there is a cash match from the LA, plus a lot of investment from a group of sponsors/ investors. Plus a lot of hard work
Linking with Oldham College to provide training as part of the pathway programme.

Could it be that Newcastle had better players to chose from?
Looking at some of their performances,no but clearly the coach didnt rate him.

Maybe on TV but there are not more people watching live RL now than there were when I got involved and, as for players, there are only about a fifth of the amateur teams there were in 1986.

Average now is over 9000

We were on one side and the Toulouse fans on the other. The ends weren't open
The Toulouse website shows lots of areas for the €9 general admission but just one section for Oldham.

We did last time. The other thing to note is that, again last time, you bought a token at one place then used it to get a drink at another countet
Was that for the Away section, or just general admission? Looking at the link to the Toulouse website from the ticket link on Oldham's they have only allocated one small section!

What's the best way to get there? Has anyone organised anything?
Depends on what day you want to travel, other than Ryanair Thursday( to Carcassone) there is no direct from Mcr, try Kayak they were showing Friday flights via Ams, Brussels and Paris.
Edit
Just been looking and if you havn't already booked you are looking at £400+ return!

Think yesterday demonstrated a very clear quality gap between two groups.
Toulouse, Bradford and Featherstone - each of whom demonstrated against us that they played at a pace that we struggled to deal with.
Then the rest - where we are one of the leading contendors.
We played superb yesterday and fielded probaby the biggest pack I remember Yeds having and Fax struggled to deal with and were worn down.
Think the team is now looking good but may need another centre as JT clearly struggling with injuries and for pace when he is in the team.
We also played those three teams when we had players out of position in the backs and they exploited that ruthlessly. With a fully fit team and first choice back line the results would be a lot closer if not wins for Oldham, The pack we put out yesterday would be a match for any those 3 could put out.

Excellent performance from 1 -17 , Pons was solid took his try well and handled everything they threw at him, Musgrove was awesome off the bench clearly a class act . Same again next week at Hunslet then 3 weeks off to R&R and prepare for Toulouse.

England v Australia 2025 - coming to the UK!

He is still under contract until the end of 2027, so nothing will happen unless the Knights get an offer they can't refuse, he is on A$1.4 per season reports are he could get 2m in Europe but hankers after an All Black's jersey, he won't get one it playing in Europe and I don't think NZRU would match his salary. Plus there will be 2 new teams with bumped up salary caps in the NRL hungry for talent.
