Toronto Wolfpack will definitely be in C1 and the Challenge Cup next season
www.loverugbyleague.com/news_217 ... eiled.html
Quote The new club will play home and away fixtures in four or five match blocks, and will play their home games at Lamport Stadium in Toronto. When in the UK for away matches they will be based in Bradford.
Brian Noble has been appointed director of rugby and Paul Rowley as head coach. Former Saints and Halifax player Adam Fogerty has joined the club as a director.
The Wolfpack claim they will commence an ambitious player recruitment campaign over the summer months, with their search for talent in North America being the subject of a reality TV series called Last Tackle.'"
Rowley coach and Nobby director of rugby!
Where did it all go wrong, Mr. Green? |

| Curious as to how this will work with the salary cap, section on Salary Cap Qualifying Costs:
Quote
6.3
Player benefits
6.3.1
All accommodation costs paid by the Club including rent, council tax bills, telephone bills, heating and any other relevant costs. Where a Club owns a house then the “rent” shall be deemed to be the “rating value”
6.3.5
Cost of all travelling expenses paid to, or on behalf of, the player. Such expenses will include all airfares and relocation costs of non-British players, irrespective of whether they may be subject to income tax. '"
May be difficult to attract players if they can't support them in Toronto, or hammer their available cap if they do. |

..absolutely barmy and unsustainable in the longer term.Suppose they will be induced to climb through the Divs as speedily as possible.The RFL will want to see their 'investment' pay! So,as most clubs get poorer,along with Catalans,the game is deemed to be heading global.Totally absurd and unnecessary for the welfare and development of our game,particularly for the lower divisions.As mentioned,I wonder what type of players will be recruited within the salary cap and how audience figures will effect their overall budget.Almost a dual registration scenario when calculating revenues between $'s and £'s. Whatever happened to the M62 corridor format of Rugby League... can't see a Canada invasion benefiting too many clubs or really catching the imagination of that many fans.The cost of following such a franchise would be mostly prohibitive and here am I thinking that such decisions were made with the paying spectators in mind.
Although this move might bring about a more attainable level of promotion through the leagues...after all,given our own position with the Middle 8's,they would never be able to make progress into SL...

Didn't a lot of Australian players come across when France came into the game. Did the Salary Cap apply then? |

'' ..Metaphorically speaking,in that they are in agreement to spread the game,which I think is a huge gamble,because one way or another there will be an element of subsidy imo. |

Salary Cap is irrelevant if you have £5000 spare and can guarantee it will be worth at least 6 points to break it

NO salary cap for Toronto Invaders....
The club will not receive central funding from the RFL but are likely to get special dispensation to exceed the salary cap to enable them to run a full-time team and have pledged to cover all costs of visiting teams, who will fly out on a Thursday, play on Saturday and return the following day.
