Sir Kevin Sinfield Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 But will they be granted a relegation exemption? IMO they should, at least for 1 year but ideally for 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hela Wigmen Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 It’s a very good video given that it’s been put together in a very short time. I hope we get presidential like rallies with this. I can see Degsy dancing to YMCA while rallying in Wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah.... it was a cracking day out.... but nowhere near my best day out at a game. Toronto was fabulous. A fantastic experience.

Toulouse just the perfect fit for me... Great rugby experience at both venues but I get more out of South West France than perhaps I would Toronto for non rugby related stuff. One of the best games I ever saw for atmos, fever pitch emotion and sheer enjoyment was at post office Road for an academy game circa 2003. You dont always need the crowds. That said, gb v oz Wembley 94..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PREPOSTEROUS Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Toulouse over Toronto is definitely a plus. Some local competition for Catalans and it could ignite the French game and get more juniors playing the game, something that was decades away with the Wolfpack. It may also encourage a tv deal that actual decent paid money to broadcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

del capo Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Lenaghan is a great fan of Toulouse and has spoken at their dinners. He has a place in the Gers not far away. So who knows.? Still pretty average on the park though and need massive recruitment to venture anywhere near SL standards. Their base at Blagny is lovely but hardly downtown. On the plus side they have their own and very strong financial support. Love their sausages as well......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Taylor Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Sorry, I couldn't resist. I find it astonishing we are even in this position squabbling over the next best team. It wouldn't surprise me if Bradford were amongst the front runners with the connection with Mr Wood. I honestly would love to see a breakdown of reasons for and against each team. I think international fixtures next year will be difficult with covid - so how will this impact Catalans and also Toulouse? 2008 RFL Wakefield & District Young Volunteer of the Year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
