I've never been on another teams forum and disrespected anyone yet numerous people have come on here and have very disrespectful. Plenty of people have made it very clear that Toronto is not welcome. I would point you to those posts but the mods have done a very good job of deleting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will find very few have gone onto other teams' forums, it's much more of a problem of folks like you coming onto ours. 47 minutes ago, OldManMarley said: I have played rugby league for 25 years and watched it for over 55 years so I’m entitled to my opinion. Exactly the attitudes that holds the sport back. It is a game, not something you have to "do your time" to own an opinion. Everyone should be free to join and share a view. This is how you get new fans, something RL desperately needs. Look at the new NHL Las Vagus expansion team. They went straight to the Stanley cup final in their first year with new fans (and no local players). This what you have to do to grow the sport, accept new fans and their opinions and hope they are successful. Instead of being a miserable gït when new supporters dare to have an opinion.

RobertAM Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 RL is the greatest game on earth..given that statement more people should be playing/watching/supporting regardless of where they are in the world. And if people like our owner David Argyle want to put money into developing teams people can rally around in support of the aforementioned goal does it really matter where the players come from?.simple answer - no. Let's not screw it up by engaging in silly arguments that really don't get us anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have made all the Brits and Aussies new honorary Canadians and they have accepted...we also like the Islanders and everybody else. we are Canadians so we like everybody and all are welcome to join us in our 'good thing'.

I have played rugby league for 25 years and watched it for over 55 years so I’m entitled to my opinion. If England were to produce a Baseball Team or an Ice Hockey team who had incredible amount of funding and had some initial short term success I don’t believe for once second that fans of that team would begin to lay the law down on a sport they know very little about? I’m sure you aren’t all bad, I’ve been to Toronto myself to watch Pittsburgh play the Leafs and it was a great experience but there are a few individuals from yourselves on this forum that are incredibly arrogant and show a complete lack of respect for the fans of other teams. You come from an affluent city, some of these teams that people from this forum are having a go at are run down areas, they have suffered and feel hard done to by a governing body (RFL) that has never shown value in the work they do. It is not easy to see someone come in with a cheque book sign whoever they want and then have fans parade it infront of people with an arrogance that some of you have. Im more than happy with all my previous comments and I had a very fortunate privileged up bringing considering the time. My parents were fantastic people and they made sure of that, so I can assure you, the words I write are of no fault of theres. That’s one gold medal quality whinge.

For what it’s worth, I dont understand the argument that you can’t be a Canadian team without Canadian players, either. Surely it’s a longer term development issue? If all goes well, TWP won’t be playing in the UK leagues in 10 or 20 years time anyway, they will be at the forefront of a North American League, no? Or have I got that all wrong? I certainly don’t begrudge the development of the game, either here or abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
