For context, an MLR franchise would cost you around USD10m, and look how they are struggling. This proposal is naive at best.

I’m probably out of the loop here, but how is this situation Sale’s fault?

I recall that the domestic competition was struggling to get going again post COVID - what is the situation now?

Link doesn’t work… Edit: tried again this morning and has been fixed

Has anyone tried to go through and estimate how many points each club would get? I know these would be pure guesstimates, but interested in who the winners/losers are, and whether this is going to change anything at all in the short term

It isn’t a league, just a set of fixtures.

Are the Wolfpack actually professional in any way now?

Would be interested to hear what others think about whether twitter posts like this should be in Dutch? To me having them all in English screams ‘niche sport for foreigners’. It would be good to see Dutch and English if space allowed

Yes, they definitely played a union match a few weeks ago

Was in Tirana a couple of months ago - a great place with a fascinating (but sad) history. And super cheap!

Interested in how the Albania side will turn out - is there still just the one club?

They need to forget about selling tickets and handing out coozies… get some games played and a bit of stability first

Took me 10 seconds to find information on the East and West Grand Finals from March… https://greekrl.com/grand-final-scores/

Tirana RC are interesting- they don’t appear to care which code they play. They had a match against a Union side last weekend.

I checked out of this topic at about page 35 - has anything significant happened or are we still having the same circular arguments?

The website is… limited at best http://world13.org And their Facebook page hasn’t been updated since 2021 https://www.facebook.com/world13org Admirable sponsoring RL in the way that they do, just a slightly funny way to go about it

Why did most of the West teams pull out?

Is there a timeline for when we will find out the final gradings?

On your PS - RLU have two posts on Instagram, one of which is a video with a song in the background and lyrics on the screen reading - ‘break away from everybody, break away from everything’… I think it’s fair that RLU see themselves as a breakaway! https://www.instagram.com/reel/CocgYcXg7aE/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Interesting that they appear to manage almost exclusively boxers…

Looks like this is the Championship Rugby League guys again… appears they will do anything for a bit of publicity, e.g. recently claiming they had taken over the running of the game in the US, which was quickly refuted by IRL

Oh wow I completely misread the title! Makes much more sense now

I’m struggling to understand what this means, but maybe I’m just being thick… Broncos will no longer be number 1 in London implies someone else will be number 1?

4 month, no?
