Well looking on the Bulls forum, sadly their fans are less interested than ours are. Bringing the prices down has also alianeted a few more of their season ticket holders as well. Sounds like a right atmosphere will be produced.

What really gets my goat is that there isnt a collective group bringing the RFL to task. In football you have the Football Supporters Federation which keeps a watchful eye on the authorities however the RFL seem to get away with every ridiculous idea with little more than some grumbling on internet forums.

I read that the season ticket sales have gone really well, so far, in Toronto but their flights and accommodation are being funded by the RFL, as are the flights and accommodation for the teams travelling to Toronto.

I watched Dave Woods interview Eric Perez (CEO of Toronto) and he said the sponsorship portfolio he's put together will more than cover all the costs for travel etc. Wouldn't surprise me if RFL were bank rolling em though but suppose history will tell

It always does. Folk start to wonder why they bought one. And, more importantly, whether they'll buy one next season.

Pricing is a tough decision.

Folk often forget that, ultimately, the clubs collectively make these decisions. If they want to spend their money on Toronto, I'd be surprised, but it's still their decision.
