Apparently they are staying for next season some teams Could be unlucky and have to travel to Catalans and Toronto twice what an absolute joke that would be

If so, I'd give you good odds that it will be us.

We'll definitely get the newly promoted side to SL first game. Seems to be a tradition for us.

Well, at least if its Toronto, we should start with a home fixture, it's too cold to play in Toronto in mid Feb.

I know that the "away fans" subject has been done to death but, we better hope that Fev make it into SL, at least they will bring a few fans with them.
If it's Toulouse or Toronto, then, Toulouse all day long.
Return flights for around £40, and plenty of cheap hotels over there.
Toronto will be an arm and a leg for everyone.

I believe the 2020 season starts January next year, due to Lions tour.

Rumoured Aussie series over here isn't it for 2020?

If it is the same as this year, we will play the teams finishing in the even positions in the loop games - Wigan, Warrington, Hull FC, Leeds, Shudds and promoted team. Isn't that the same games as this year?

If the Magic fixtures are the same basis as this year we will play Hull KR.

Now that we are back into an annual relegation from SuperLeague, the nonsense that is loop fixtures and "Magic" becomes more apparent. For the game to have any credibility, each team must play all others twice only to avoid the distortions the current system brings. That means increasing to 14 teams in Super League so just get on with it. There isn't another solution and clubs will have to suck it up and split funding 14 ways instead of 12.

Let’s hope we do better than winning 1 out of the 6 we did this season! Although to be fair you could argue injuries may have played a part because we won 4 of the 6 first time round...
