Read the bloody article you lot!

It doesn't say that the RFL has decided on 10 x 2. It says that 10 x 2 is one possibility, but that a stronger possibility is a move to 14 SL clubs.

I favour 14 clubs if they include, Catalans, Toronto, Toulouse and London. But there must be a mechanism for admitting New York and other north American clubs as well in future years, otherwise rugby league will never grow its fan base or its players base, or its funding, and will eventually collapse from its global irrelevance.

Why does that clown think Toulouse deserve SL. What have they done ever in the championship. Catalans are dropping faster than a prostitute drops her knickers.

And the comment on Toronto v London is attractive wait till they play each other and will see which game got the biggest attendance that or Dewsbury v Batley I can guarantee will be the local derby

If you all think Toronto will go up this year I would look at here last 2 games and think again no where near what hull kr were last season leigh again look poor. I will not be writing London off this year think they could be the team to make the step up

The Dewsbury v Batley match rarely pulls in a crowd of more than a 1000 these days

Given that Toronto have been getting crowds around 8 times what that Dewsbury - Batley figure, I think you're a bit off the mark.

You are right, Leigh do look poor, but your last paragraph is only on current form after only 3 games. It's the business end that matters........I'm just praying we are up there in with a shout TBH.

Allegedly ??

I think the attendances for Batley v Dewsbury may involve spectators and not just numbers on a piece of paper.

I would suspect that London v Toronto in a suburb of Greater London might attract 2,500 up to 3,000
