Yes such a shame that 4th and 5th play off for a place in Super League. What would you rather be the decider? Leigh had half a million pound of their salary paid via the parachute payment and couldn't make the top four. You'll get over it at some point I'm sure.

Those figures are from the end of May. The recent playoff games had 20000+ and 40000+ crowds.
Ridiculous comparison to Salford Is it? Considering population? Salford - 103k Melbourne - 4.82 million

JESUS WEPT  HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.  |

The 2,500 at London will a/ watch the game b/generate more revenue on the gate than 5k (reported as 8k) in Toronto c/ will have fewer than 10 canadians in attendance including the team, coaching and backroom staff, cheerleaders and waterboy!

The correct figure for the entire regular season is 2.3% (15,260) up on 2017 (14,919) which basically regained the loss from 2016 (15,214). NRL crowds are down 7% over the last 9 years from a a high of 16,406 in 2010.....Gold coast v Manly got 5,135 this year..... Greater Western Sydney AFL side, the sick puppy and running joke among insecure Aussie NRL fans achieved a better average attendance this year than both Manly and Paramatta....as did the Western Sydney Soccer side......the Sydney Swans AFL side achieved the highest average attendance in bot the city as well as over all 16 NRL sides including Brisbane. As for the comparison with Salford, Manchester and its suburbs doesn't lay (false) claim to be the home of the biggest and most popular game in the country, Sydney does and it's a lie......the attendances at NRL games are shocking and the reason that 11 of the 16 NRL clubs will post losses this year (before income from their pokey addicted league clubs is added). Edit. Durham Giant see pm

Salford may continue to have financial difficulties but the team have shown they deserve their place. Without Hastings however...... 1 space for automatic promotion left. And at least we'll be now in the MPG away at worst. Tomorrow is massive and we could still end up with 4 teams on 10 points at the top.

It's going to be weird for our (alleged) Leeds Rhino's fan tomorrow night. Wanting his side to lose against Toronto Barbarians...just so he can have an 0rg@sm on the VT if they win.
