As a fellow expansionist in a non traditional RL area I'd suggest Melbourne Storm as they are the only true expansion club left in the top flight of RL in either hemisphere. Doesn't hurt they are a winning club either :)
Good luck to Toronto, hope to see you in SL one day.

There is an easy way out...

Just go for the team that plays Manly every week because everyone hates them.

The Silvertails steal everyones good players and are perpetually over the salary cap.

Lurk on their forum... https://silvertails.net/forums/rugby-league-forum.16/

Im going to watch a sport fulltime, based on a whim, but no nothing about it.

Seems like complete bollocks to me.

As Adam said Above pick the Knights, we have come last for the last 3 years but have made some really good signings and can only improve from here. Newcastle is the 2nd biggest city in NSW so you also get the us vs big brother (sydney) vibe. The knights have had several of the leagues best players over time including the greatest player of all time (in the majority of peoples opinion). One of the strongest supporter bases even though we have come last for the last 3 years. Just got new owners so all is looking positive.

Just go for the team most people don't want to win, it'll never be far from the top and no-one will pity you . . . better still, watch the game and hope the best team on the day wins . . . listen to no-one

Just go with your NFL team equivalent.

If you're an arrogant Pats supporters then its Storm for you. Tom Brady/Cam Smith. Best players of generation but hated. Cheats and very successful.

Bucs/ Jags- The only way is up unless you don't go up.. so go the Knights.

Browns- Wests Tigers or Warriors. Though at least the Tigers have won more then 1 game in 2 years.

Green Bay- Raiders, shit all to do in Green Bay or Canberra

As a fellow maple leafs and Liverpool fan.
I suggest staying away from Cronulla, as while we won in 2016.
You already suffer enough.

I became a Liverpool supporter (Premier League soccer) in 2013, through the magic of a team generator that matched you up with a Premier League team based off questions.
Parramatta are the Liverpool of the NRL. We’re good once apparently and a big support base and go missing when it counts.

Newcastle. We suck, but we shouldn't soon. No one can accuse you of being a bandwagoner, and success means more when you have suffered for it.

Plus it's an awesome place - not a shytehole like Sydney, and not full of cheating wankers like Melbourne, filthy politicians like Canberra, or bogan rednecks like Queensland.
