Per my other post, there's a salary cap, and that's a "finite" cap. You have to prove sustainable income (donations from backers don't count) to be able to spend up to that cap. You can buy your way through the Championship comps, but it gets so much harder in SL.

Just consider if there was no cap, and TW could recruit the best 17 players on the planet (Ok more than that, given the need for a squad). They'd win everything, but really, is that what sport is all about?

You should ask Wigan fans about that, they've been doing this since forever, not just the team of the 80s/90s but much further back when they'd use the money from the board to slurp up all the best talent.

Not now they don't though.....lots of local talent.

The 1st season when any team goes up is a tough one, this format hasn't been going that long. BUT whoever gets promoted, they end up in the Middle 8's the following season. Don't judge Super league teams by 'one off's in CUP games' week in/week out it's tough. If Toronto try and play like they do at the moment, they will definitely struggle (if they ever get into Super League).
Part of me hopes you get promoted, and then the we will see how Rowley handles it. I have no crystal ball (unlike you) but I don't think it will be an easy ride for Toronto.

O Ye Of Little Faith! (I'm including you too in that Sparky!)

If only all Sooper Dooper League Clubs entered at the start of the CC & had more games to play on an equal footing eh ?

Leigh have been a regular feature in the QF in the last decade while entering in the earlier stages & knocking out SL opposition, would love to see the impact on SL Clubs if they had to do likewise.

You're new to the game, I'm trying to educate you. So you reply with a silly comment. Good luck...you'll need it.

Its not meant as a silly comment, I read your post and its along the same line as Sparkeys earlier....I'm not disputing that what you say is mostly true as it has applied in the past to most clubs and is a general truth...but TWP is a unique animal and I don't think what you have said applies to them...I think they are a way better club than you give them credit for...I have faith in them....I think you want to have that strong assurance of them too but you are not there yet...I appreciate the help though, don't worry we will steer you through it and then, in the end, you will see that I am right....In the end you will walk in the light, and I'm just the fella to guide ya!

Did you ever use your canoe on't cut?

He looks more like a beaver to me! (Double entendre?)

Big game this weekend between Leigh and Fax.
Loser goes home and wont make the Middle 8's and you'd probably have to fancy a Leigh victory.

Should be a belter though.

I think Fax can afford to lose it and still make the middle 8s, Us (Leigh) on the other hand have to win. On Toronto at this moment in time I feel they will make super league and they will have deserved it. They've been the best team in the competition all season and deserve their chance.

Thanks for that... .

16 played 14 to go..

Not really all season just yet,is it?

Only 7 to go before the re-division of the SL and Championship into three separate parts.

Yes, but its still a maximum of 14 left. Hardly 'all season' just yet. In fact the season is just beginning for some,and the business end is what counts.

Still lots of rugby left to play but things are starting to come into focus.

For some..

I know, Leigh still haven't figured it out yet...let me help you....looks like you guys are oh so close to blowing it.

You have your own issues to consider, Don't be considering ours,we've been here before.

Thats is true....just a one off for us though.

Even you must admit that this is the year for any Championship side to go for promotion...will be much harder in the future...this is the time for action.
I have every belief that Toronto will seize the moment and go for it with every tool we have....TWP will be in SL next year....it is our destiny!

........ every tool we have.......

Speaks for itself.

Your destiny is in the hands of the RFL as are all..
