You can't really compare total financial collapse with the impact of a global pandemic and Visa rule changes...

Yet 11 others clubs prepared for the start Toronto didn't, using the visa excuse is like saying you did realise the mot on your car was up for renewal when it arrives

yes, because immigration etc. is running completely as normal.
Have you seen the news about passports?
some people just don't like the Toronto expansion, fair enough.

no idea of the details, as I say, some just don't like the Toronto idea, and now they seem to be all but gone.
The main thing to discuss will be when decisions are made about how (if) they play in 2021.

What "Next season" TWP are offloading all their players as we head towards the autumn, and Argyle is finished with bankrolling them. He knows he's not wanted in Superleague so that's no fun for a guy who likes a good laugh and banter at his games. He is wanted in Melbourne where he can now "buy in" to the Storm where he'll have a great time.
You need to understand with respect a lot of things aren't real. The posters laying bait all the time on here aren't genuine, and Argyle certainly isn't genuine about why he's packing it in. That he's packing it in is very understandable.
His $30 Million "investment" came with no return whatsoever. A massive loss. Not one TV dollar came from that not one decent player.
But the idea they are carrying on is just the usual smokescreen TWP are poor at creating, but the RL media here are even poorer at exposing. Tomorrow may well be time for the RL press to wail about "missed opportunities" and condemn Superleague bosses who actually keep the game alive using money from their own pockets".
It started last week with Sadler suggesting an ownership model where the SL bosses put their money in but someone else spent it for them.As one major dream dies another is created out of the ashes, just like a phoenix.

Why do you state that 'Super League bosses put their money in',yet they rely on the broadcast monies allocated to them;while you scoff at Argylle who has put millions in without reward,other than the side gaining promotions?
Why do you scoff at suggestions,and comparisons/contrasts with other sports,when a journalist may want to expand the sport both geographically and financially?
Why does a contracting sport,played in a smaller area of one country,with a contracting broadcast deal and dwindling attendances,and dwindling band of ageing rich males,appeal so much to you?

| Quote Donnyman="Donnyman"YES your right TotalRL ran with it as did League Weekly forever trumpeting this new dawn. I would not mind but these RL publications surely had a duty to their largely traditional readership to be a bit more realistic, and report a bit more accurately rather than be a fanfare for a phoney club that would badly damage the game.
Sure Superleague rightly refused to put the red carpet out and refused the idea of taking in phoney clubs, but what they DID do was a deal with Rimmer that gave TWP entry to Superleague and that was a really strange and damaging thing to do. TWP never had an automatic right to promotion as a guest club but the reports were Rimmer conceded an end to the Middle eights and MPG in return for TWP's promotion. ......'"
The publications and journalists are doing their job properly. You can't discredit them just because they don't correlate with your fanciful and outdated views.
As for guest and member status's, the sooner that model is abolished, the better.
And finally, the deal regarding Toronto and mpg never happened.
