Wigan
Stains
Bradford
Leeds
Warrington
Catalans
Hull Fc
Hull Kr
Castleford
Harlequins
Huddersfield(Cant realy kick them out as they are rugby history lol)

If Huddersfield are rugby history why not let in Bramley? The only thing going for them is their stadium

Salford and Celtic will get in
I think the likes of Widnes/Leigh should have attacked the likes of Wakefield/Cas more strongly

Think SKY are pushing for Toulouse so all the presenters can get over to France twicw as much as they do now. Wonder what input SKY TV have on the process also. He who pays the piper plays the tune! :exc: :eh:

:conf:
why twice as much? sky dont do live games for catalan at home as french channel 9 have exclusive rights. saying that they did highlights of yesterdays game with leeds.

I hope Leigh get one and Celtic. Salford is a no for me this time. Not got the stadium built yet. I know Celtic havent got a great stadium but if you want to promote RL in other countarys then Celtic should be the team. Especially with the success of Millenium Magic.
Lets just see though
