What a shift Alex put in in Toronto. He was magnificent under the high ball and his defense kept us in the game. There was a time when I felt he would not get his chance to make the first team. He was prepared to wait and when his chance came he took it. I understand some Super League teams were looking at him but now that he plays for a Super League team I hope that he will not get poached. I was pleased that he got LBSA young player of the year and I am sure that he has a lot more to give. Well done Alex.
I think I read somewhere that he dislocated 3 fingers in the first minute...epic shift from the young man........on his way to a Broncos ring!
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
Great performance from a great young player. Some moan about his lack of physical size but it didn't stop him making the Million Pound tackle in the second half!
