    Toulouse or London Promoted to SL!!

    I think you're using the term 'tv deal' loosely coz those arrangements with those broadcasters only covers the odd games.

    Toulouse or London Promoted to SL!!

    In the play offs the year they won the Championship, they got crowds of 10k for both games. After that restrictions got tighter and there was uncertainty as to whether Toulouse would be able to play any SL home games......not good for promoting season ticket sales. Also season before in the...

    Toulouse or London Promoted to SL!!

    In regards to the 'financial issues' these were costs not planned for because SL clubs at the last minute asked them to pay all transport costs of away teams which totalled around 500k. This was also when additional measures was needed for travelling, ie, covid tests etc. If someone asked you...

    Toulouse or London Promoted to SL!!

    Your crowds aren't gonna be good in the middle of a global pandemic. At the time, the French government required anyone attending a public event to be vaccinated with boosters, there was a lot of uncertainty, doubt and resistance. Also, in Europe large swathes of the population were not...

    Elite 1 French Championship 2023/2024

    And a lot of what you mentioned is just basic stuff. On the French Forum it says the Fed have brought in a media communications company to work with them on various initiatives so perhaps these things will start to get fixed.

    Go and Google it. You seem to have formed your opinion already. New backers not announced yet.

    How would you brand a club based in Christchurch?

    I'm not sure it would be the same because the Dolphins have a long and rich history from the BRL and Queensland Cup as Redcliffe. Therefore they already have heritage and brand recognition in a very strong RL area. I don't think that a NZ2 team would have the same fandom and rich history to call...

    How would you brand a club based in Christchurch?

    Completely forgot there was another club called Canterbury. That's how bad they were this year.

    How would you brand a club based in Christchurch?

    Ok so there's a lot that needs to happen before the next NRL club is announced but the feedback I'm getting on a NZ2 club is that it should be located in Christchurch. Let's say for example the nickname of the club is 'Orcas', what would be the place name of the club, which of the below do you...

    New RL club in Lyon

    Why did they not re-establish the original club then? I'm not expecting you to know, it's just a general statement.

    Where would a second NZ team play?

    If Waikato and Christchurch have a similar number in terms of population why do most people favour a team located in Christchurch? What's wrong with Waikato?

    Where would a second NZ team play?

    Seeing lots of people in favour of the NRL admitting a second NZ team. But there seems to be a shortage of detail on any official bids. Is there genuine interest and more specifically where would they play and what would they be called? Christchurch in the new Te Kaha Stadium is one option if...

    Adelaide Bears - Is Adelaide the right fit for Norths?

    I agree with you on that. I suppose I was writing the post in terms of what I would do if I was in their position and what their best bet is.

    Adelaide Bears - Is Adelaide the right fit for Norths?

    It's been discussed on a few threads so may as well start a thread of its own on the subject. As a general note, I'm not in favour of Norths being readmitted into the NRL under any guise either on their own or by teaming up with another bid team or expansion club. However if I was leading...
