Reaping what they’ve sewn in player contract management I’m afraid. The majority of that squad is nowhere near SL standard so for them to be getting beaten every week is no real surprise.

I don’t blame them for signing SBW, it’s a shrewd move IMO but leaving the squad to deteriorate to such a poor level is unforgivable.

Signing SBW was the very opposite of shrewd, stupid money for someone who hasn’t played League for years and is well past their best. Daft signing.

I’ve seen some incredibly thick teams in my time, but Toronto are top of the list.

Remember the broncos side who finished bottom around 2013/14 only winning 1 game all year?

I genuinely think Toronto look worse.

Mac not bothered about given his opinion on the game at the end

I do wonder what kind of damage this is doing in terms of any future expansions the game might try and implement going forward.
I understand Ottawa are getting the green light so time will tell, has the Toronto experiment simply been mis-managed or is the game really biting off more than it can chew with these expansions?
Will players want to go and play for these sides when they look and see the hidings Toronto are getting week in week out?

Leeds played well but that Toronto performance was one of the worst showings from a top flight team I have seen in a long, long time.

Players will go for the money, I bet Wilkin is laughing his socks off, all the way to the bank. As for $BW, well, worth every cent!

I don't think so, they'll knock off a few cellar dwellers along the way, especially at home later in the season.

SBW makes our signing of Willie Mason years ago look like good business.
