Based on the loop fixtures and presuming it stays the same next year, we will have 2 away games vs toronto.

Though it has been confirmed no club will go to Canada twice.

We therefore may have 1 "away" game early in the season - on the road, Toronto have talked about Copenhagen/Dublin/ Other cities as possibilities, we may then get an away game in Toronto towards the end of the year,

We will have to see.

It was said a couple of weeks ago that no team would travel twice to Toronto.

As far as playing the newly promoted sides, we didn't get Hudds in 2003, or Salford in 2004, or Leigh in 2005, or Cas in 2006, or Hull KR in 2007, or Harlequins in 2008, or Crusaders in 2009 or leigh 2017.
We got Hull KR in 2007, Widnes in 2012, Hull KR in 2018 & London 2019.
So only one in the 2000's but 3 this decade so far.

So out of the 12 promoted side we got 4 when the average would be about 1. And they were all away from home. Would love a tenner at those odds!

Think we ended up playing first up Salford at their new ground too.

I’m pretty sure that was Cas, I seem to remember it was snowing which made for a very poor attendance but may be wrong.

Weren't we meant to be the sacrificial lambs for the first league game in front of the Leeds new South stand as well? I enjoyed that one...

Must be a good selling point with potential sponsors?
