Featherstone is very unlikely to beat Toulouse in Toulouse next weekend. In the off chance that they do defeat Toulouse, Featherstone will have no chance against Toronto in the final.

Who would you want to win in a Toronto Toulouse final?

Lost by just 4 points in Toronto this season with a poor team, Chisholm had visa problems.

We’ll beat Toronto if we get past Toulouse

At the risk of appearing unpatriotic, I want Toronto to win, because I worry if they lose the final again their backers might start to lose interest, and then the whole north American experiment and expansion scenario could collapse.

On the other hand Toulouse were not really expecting to be promoted at the end of this season. Toulouse are probably two ferocious prop forwards short of winning the Championship. Hopefully they will strengthen their player roster for the 2020 season, especially in the forwards, and get promoted to Super League at the end of 2020.

Whats really embarrassing for Super League is the crowd that the TWP got, which was higher than either the Warrington v Castleford clash and the Wigan v Salford clash. I reall can't see how Super League can turn them down if they win the Championship Grand Final https://www.rugby-league.com/championsh ... r-toulouse https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/ ... tch-report https://www.salfordreddevils.net/match- ... september/

Depends how it's decided. It's a racing cert that a few chairmen would prefer to see a weaker side promoted, ideally even weaker than London proved to be this year.
