they're only allowed 2 marquee signings and sonny bill is one so they won't be able to sign all those with out serious cap fiddling.

Re: Toronto
It says tuillagi and the Nfl player wouldn't count on the cap for the first year maybe because theve played league before ? Not sure tbh
The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have

Re: Toronto
Think the NFL player won't count due to coming from a different body of sport, unsure myself also.
COYF!
Re: Toronto
Something to do with talent pool dispensation, Luther Burrell doesn't count on Warrington cap for 18 month due to same rule.
COYF!

Re: Toronto
thinking about it they had 2 marquee players last season (ricky leutele and darcy lussick) leutele was rumoured to be the highest paid player over despite being in the championship. both are at twp next season so i don't know how they'll get round that.

Re: Toronto
he's committed to 2 seasons so in 2021 he could be running out at batley sheffield and swinton if they go back down. which they could easily do.

Re: Toronto
I think on the field this is an issue, the attention he commands given his name and profile is bound to make opportunity for everyone else.
You can say what you like about the right and wrong of them being in SL, they haven't come to mess about, the backing is putting their money where their mouth is and aiming up and out, not down and in.
I think they'll do OK, the squad is up to it.

Re: Toronto
Manu Tuilagi is apparently there next target.
I assume that is their quota of marquee signing.
Will be interesting to see how they put together a cohesive squad.

Re: Toronto
Manu Tuilagi will have a £0 value in his first season and only 50% in year 2 due to not having played professional RL before. No need to use marquee on him (same as Luther Burrell at Warrington)casjunction wrote: ↑17 Nov 2019, 18:04 Manu Tuilagi is apparently there next target.

Re: Toronto
I expect he'll have a relegation release clause.
I don't know how well any of this will work out for Toronto, but signing SBW and talks of signing other big rugby stars generates media coverage for our game - positive media coverage. That's not a bad thing, and its not my money being spent.
So good luck to them.

Tenth will do, survival being the number one priority.

Re: Toronto
I am not sure about 10th, I think it is all going to be about the start of the season how they go permanently travelling. Appreciate they're Manchester based in reality, but the "on the road" thing, if it goes well and they get points on the board early, I think they will do OK.
I would back them for 8th, I think there are a few teams who might struggle beyond their first 17 players.

Re: Toronto
i wonder how much cash David Argyle is pumping into this venture, he must be very wealthy.
Re: Toronto
Yes and if they're as handy as they look on paper we had better watch our step. First game and all the razmataz that will go with it
If we aren't firing on all cylinders for this match we will get turned over. Happy 2020 here we go again.
