Well, looks like the experiment is over and Toronto is on its way directly to the top.

A strong ownership, great front office and coaching staff, dedicated and loyal players, huge fan base....all of the ingredients are there.

Nothing can stop destiny...straight to the top of the ladder Man!

Hot in Southern Ontario today. if the visiting teams hit a heat wave they will have trouble dealing with it, hopefully our boys will climatize a bit. Might give us a bit of an edge although we were really up against it playing so many away games.....good to be home in Canada where our boys belong!

"Run With The Pack!"

Sounds like the lads are having a great time back home in Toronto....just announced a deal with Volkswagon for free cars when they are here. THE QUALITY AND AMOUNT OF SPONSORSHIP DEALS THE WOLFPACK HAS SIGNED IS NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING!

Excitement starting to grow for the Broncos game in a week...if weather is good we will have about 9000 I'm willing to guess.

Weather looking great, field looking great, fan base growing, training going well.

Diary Entry #1:
Have settled in and met many of the Leigh fans..lots of abuse and hard abusive comments...have received many hate filled emails so have blocked them all. I am trying to show them the path to the light....accepting the Wolfpack will be their first step.....the path to redemption!

Have been invited to go on a thing called the 'Wakey Forum' but many on here appear to have multiple personalities. have already been accused of having alternate call signs numerous times....people are very distrustful of one another, especially some guy called Jean Caputo or something like that...poor guy having to put up with the negative comments all the time. Met a nice guy called Atomic: there is hope yet!

Why, oh why, did the Rugby Gods have to choose me to clear this all up? Woe am I! Alas, someone has got to bring these people into the modern Rugby League era.

Diary until next time,
Canoeman

"Run With The Pack"

Still fighting the good fight for Club and Country.....weather looked bad but forecast is improving for London game, time to revenge the early season loss. Will give a report here on the crowd, ticket sales, clothing sales etc. after the game. New mascot has been unveiled....I'm sure the kids will love him.

The TWP have presented all of our great players with free diamonds and dog tags with the diamonds placed in them in appreciation of all they do...
TWP represents the highest level classiness in all of rugby (Union or League)....we know how to treat people over here...rolling in money and diamonds over here....HANG ON!.....

....back now, had to shut the window, wind was blowing and $10 bills were falling from the tree in the backyard and blowing in the window and are now on the floor...what a mess!....I'll just have to sweep them up and put them in the trash...only 10's so why keep them?....can't be bothered.....


Lots of money over here....lots and lots.....

Hey...for all you head counters out there just watch the Toronto/London game tomorrow....buy some extra pencils though, you are going to run our of lead. Hopefully this will settle this attendance thing once and for all and all those who said we actually have low attendance will apologize (false news).
"A Blind Man Will Be Able To See It"

Shame there are no TWP fans to temper your exuberance.

Just reeled one in!!!!!! Good game against London yesterday but no great excitement or drama....another week another win....Dewsbury next!

"Build it and they will come."

Just reviewed the Toronto game via video....I really don't know if there is any team that can stop us....the Pack is a well oiled machine by any standard.

The new rule changes play right into our hands for promotion...of all the teams we are currently the best situated to take advantage of the chaotic situation...Argyle is sharpening the pencil to write the cheques, the best braintrust in all or rugby, Sir Brian Noble and the Great Paul Rowley are ready to pull the trigger, the fans are coming in the tens of thousands....

THIS IS OUR TIME! We are really going to show and give it to those whining English prats now...show them how a real operation does it.
Cheerio!

"Run With The Pack!"

Are you for real, you are cheering a team of English p**ts as you call them.

They are not all English, they have been made honourary Canadians and plus we have included alot of Australians in there!
Good future Canadians all....no doubt many will be applying for citizenship after the end period of their working visas....thats how it always seems to work over here....once you get a taste of Heaven why go back?

Weather looking good for this weekend...team has advised everyone to dress in beach wear....gonna be a PARTY!!!!!!

Looks like its going to be humid for the Dewbury game.

Watched half the Dewsbury game. I looked in vain for the packed terraces,some cardboard cutouts would make it look more respectable. I was embarrassed for Brian Noble trying to make it sound interesting. Waiting for the boatman to talk it all up.

Got back from the game very late last night after the long drive North...just getting up now.
I enjoyed the game...the Dewsbury fans were having a good time in the bars beforehand and were very well behaved....a credit to their Club...looked like everyone was having a good time.

Dewsbury gave it their best and never quit and I give them credit....they appeared to be a little overwhelmed and Toronto was playing a very expansive game...so it was tough to keep up, although they had their moments....was nice to finally see Dewsbury in action and I have enjoyed watching many of the old clubs play when they come over. The standard was set last year by Hunslet, they were magnificent those fans. Hoping Leigh doesn't set a new low in a few weeks though....after looking at the posts from Leigh fans on this site, well lets just say i have my worries...leave it at that....

Did my guesstimate of the crowd and would say 5850? Have no idea of the official count yet but that is my educated guess. Will be interesting to see how close I am.

P.S. Haven't watched the game on TV so have no idea how Noble did.

Looked more like 850 to me, I would like to see the official attendance figures as I am interested in how it will all work out.

It was 5 950 or something close to that...my guesstimate was very close as it has been for every game....I got a system. The people on here who post the pictures etc., you can't trust them, they are trying to trick people into thinking Toronto has low attendances due to some twisted old hatreds or something (they manipulate the photos with a thing called 'photo shop')...it would make for a good PhD paper in psychology.

I would have liked more people at the game but the facts is the facts and that is how many were there...I figure roughly the same next week for Barrow and then slowly the crowds will grow since summer vacation will be on (all dependet on the weather of course).

Slip the cameraman a few dollars and ask him to concentrate his viewfinder on the heaving crowds instead of the empty terraces, that way you will not need the cardboard cutouts I advised earlier.

So, you can make guesses based on photos taken half an hour before the game starts or taken from a bad angle. Or, you could go to the game and see for yourself. Announced crowd vs Dewsbury was 5500 which looked about right to me, as a fan who has been to all the Lamport Stadium games except one.

We believe in an open and free press in Canada free from interference of any kind....no one needs to slip anyone anything when it come to the Toronto Wolfpack...TRUTH is our defence! It is the only one we need.

"Truth to Power With The Pack!"

Pandamonium they won't believe you, or the independent press release or the report to RL headquarters....now the Lilfatman guy, ain't too bad but wait until you get a load of the others!
"Wee doggies...some of them are such liars that they have to get someone else to call their dog for them..Glory be."
