This is a disgrace why are they not playing a game in the heartlands, some where like Royston vasey wife miners welfare.

They may well do that, nothings confirmed for Toronto yet and the big clubs here are interested, so this is the usual empty boasting stuff, most of us get fed up with, plus the game needs to be competitive, Toronto are set to have a long hard season with a thin squad. Still, they could start preparing for a possible game now by announcing the crowd as a sell out, and teasing us as to whether SBW will play or not. This will bring thousands of "eyeballs" to our game.

Would be a great coup for Toronto, if it comes off but, if they end up as a lower end SL club, it wont be much of a test for the Aussies.
Plus, they would be adding a whole load of extra travel to what is likely to be a tight itinerary.

Might as well let Hunslet play Australia, if Toronto are doing so.

Great PR exercise by the Wolfpack, which will get column inches in Canada

To be fair it’s Toronto who are generating the column inches over here too.
