I suggest all those throwing their toys out, listen to the interview, and to what he and Smith are actually saying.
Presumably we would have been one of them. I'll bet 4 of the 8 will be warrington, st helens, leeds and wigan with no pressure for any of those to merge.

I guess it'll come down to catchment areas, but you're probably right.

Exactly. I won't wait with baited breath for close neighbours like Wigan and Saints to announce a merged academy.
Do Catalan have an academy?. If so surely they would be 1 on its own. So that would leave 7 Or am I missing something where rfl want 8 on British soil and Catalan not included?

Not sure what table your looking at as we sit in 5th 4 points behind Hull in 3rd.
