Wakefield Trinity • Re: Barrow Raiders
The whole concept of Toronto, New York et al playing in a British league is sheer lunacy. If certain people want to promote Rugby League on the North American continent then why the heck don't they start their own league over there. By all means send Super League teams over there from time to time to play exhibition matches to help create interest but IMHO we would be better looking after the Barrows and Oldhams of this world.
Really, the game wouldn't be better off at all. Besides, no Toronto wouldn't suddenly mean loads a dosh for existing struggling clubs. Falling participation numbers and an aging spectator base, the game needs to branch out. A NA league should be the ultimate aim, but that isn't going to grow out of nothing.
