The success of the Catalan dragons proves the value of mergers.

It’s time we considered this in the north.

Like the OP said, it has been a good week for France.

York City Knights is in some sense an English expansion team which is based in a historic part of northern England.

Was there a match clock at the ground? I didn't see one from where I was sitting. That plus no big screen for the video ref replays added to the rather bizarre experience of the second half.

We don't need a 10 team Super League. We need a 14 or 16 team Super League with 10 English clubs maximum (including London) and at least 2 French teams and 2-4 north American teams.
