You make a decent point but the proof of the pudding will be in the eating. Let's just give them a chance without all the usual anti-expansionist row. Afterall on this occasion it is not to the detriment of an English outfit.

French should get their own league.We need put money into english clubs to improve our game first.French have sky and tv deals so why we putting money into france?It all stinks in my opinion as heartland clubs are forgotten.

the french have Sky?



Sky isnt even a french word is it

Think they will finish mid-table (6th), which is good enough to get them into the playoffs. Think this will be a bit of a transitional year for them. Can't see past a Halifax and Widnes GF this season.

Think 2010 they will be a real force, though.

Not very well it would seem if thier first match is anything to go by

will this be the bench mark now
