It is a decent article. As usual with the Fail they manage to contradict themselves - they say it was unthinkable to have teams from another country 10 years ago and then mention the Dragons and Toulouse
A bit of a minor point but it does show how RL lead the way and also how they fail to capitalise on it!
Argyle sounds engaging and ambitious. A bit Koukash 2014!

I actually think the rumoured Thugpack move to play games in Europe early season might have a bigger impact than them playing in Canads. I have said for many a year a SL team in Dublin would make a killing as it is so close to the heartland teams, getting there is so easy and there is no professional sporting team simply ladled Dublin.

If London were to Win Would there stadium be up to Super League standard I'm guessing 5-6 years ago it wouldn't be allowed but with Wakefield being allowed to Continually play at the Total Crap hole stadium I guess The Broncos wouldn't have a problem , In fact the Newish Building at Ealing Trailfinders makes it a lot better than Wakefield's and the temporary stand behind the Posts has seats unlike that stand At The Imobile Bumhole stadium I think it's called for sponsorship reasons.

I’m guessing they must be ok with the stadium. It’s s tidy little ground with a fab couple of bars with nice food and beer. Standing and seating very close to the pitch. I can’t see how it will be big enough. We packed it out so there’s no way wigan, Leeds etc will fit. Maybe just more will stand up down the touchline and opposite end from the seats

The RFL announced about a week ago that if either team won today then they would be admitted to Super League. That implies that both stadia are fit for purpose I suppose. So moving from the Willows wasn’t necessary after all. The RFL as an organisation make the Marx Brothers look professional! |

The Trailfinders ground isn’t in the least suitable for any sizeable crowd The “ stands “ aren’t big enough indeed the one I sat in wasn’t useable in the rain. There is no on street parkin nearby, no car parks nearby and totally inadequate parking at the ground.
This is a fantastic sports and social club,not a stadium which has to accommodate 2 to 6 thousand people.I would hope they have a plan B.

I'd love to have London back in SL.
Remember once taking 11 hrs to get there and going via Wales to avoid major roads as there were IRA bomb threats on the motorway bridges up and down the M6.
Oh and a lad who played with myself and Ryan Brierleys dad got dicked out of a Mitsubishi car when he kicked 3 goals at half time.
Got to be 25yrs ago now.

The IPA was good So if London were promoted They may have to Look for another stadium. As Wakefield should be made to do But London don't have the RFL HQ Down the road to "Bend there Ear:🍽🍷🍹🍺🍻🥂🐴🐃💶 💷 💳 " The Line ups for the MPG Have 6 former Salford players in them . But not Cory Paterson A big miss for Toronto. |

Toronto are a shambles! Will probably still win this but they are seriously lacking quality and have no discipline whatsoever. A lot to like about London but obviously too reliant on Sammut. 2-0 HT

Decent first half I thought. A bit stop start but enjoyable. Feel London should be further ahead on the balance of play

Oh I'm nearly as happy as when GOD popped over a lucky drop goal.

Yes yes brilliant display by London and really well deserved. Worth it just to see the miserable look on Rowley's face and where was Noble, counting his money as usual!
Brilliant display by Sammut.
And Gee, a Salford reject I think, in the 2nd row.

I’ve watched London twice now,in the last month. Very effective but a dire style of rugby. On both occasions the referees have allowed their spoiling tactics and slowing down manoeuvres to dominate the match. Good luck to London for their success but thank goodness I don’t have to pay to watch that style every week. Remember it’s only my opinion
