The Yanks are going Pro?

Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

very interesting.....

the first step towards proffesionalism is always the hardest, i think if they can keep it going for 5 years then they will be in a very very strong position

just wait until some of the american marketeers get their hands on the game, its popularity would explode

Very interesting stuff. Someone must have more info on this, surely!?

8 cities and 8 teams... so they've must know at least who is involved! There's 10 teams in the AMNRL at the moment, so who is getting dropped? Or are they all going and new teams coming?

We gonna invite them into the Challenge Cup?!

i never saw that coming....I assume they are being supported by the ARL or the RFL (or both) in some way.

All very strange - have they got a tv deal/sponsorship etc etc - but at least they have given themselves 12 months to prepare for it.

Anyway, further growth of the game globally can only be a good thing.

I have signed up for their mailing list!

I've signed up for their mailing list. I was planning to do a few weekend trips to the States next year to take in some baseball. Hopefully I can tie that in with some RL too.

hopefully this takes off and if someone big like trump or crowe backs it it will really explode into something big!

they are one of the most profitable countries in the world and are the major power in the world, rugby league has similarities to american football but is a quicker game, i am surprised it has not taken on earlier!
