Keep it. One day I might get to see Catalan v Warriors..

If this series ends 2-0 as heavily expected then you must wonder if it serves any purpose at all anymore. The gulf between the leagues is widening and it's a waste of money, time and resources for our sides to fly over each February for a waste of a game where they'd get more out of an opposed training session at home.

You seem to be missing the point that the ONLY reason nrl clubs agree to take part is $'s!

Perth where never going to join super league lol

Never say never! I head the guy backing RL here was keen to bankroll it to promote cash converters in uk (he went on to sponsor a epl team)

The Western Australian Rugby League is toying with an audacious idea to enter its West Coast Pirates team in the English Super League after rugby league’s Independent Commission put its expansionary plans for the NRL on the backburner.
John Sackson, the WARL’s chief executive, said his group was in a position where it had to investigate ”other options” to help promote the code in that state and to maximise the Pirates brand. The club will consider finding a British city in which to base itself.

”We’re looking at all options into the future given the delays with the expansion,” Sackson said. ”The English Super Leagueis definitely an idea we are exploring. The idea is still in its infancy, we have another board meeting coming up and we’ll be looking deeper into that and start asking the relevant questions.

Broncos totally rattled, probably wondered where the noise was coming from, not used to an atmosphere at a game.
