| I could not watch another moment of that bollox.
A near Super league standard club, artificial in every way, full of mercenaries, beating our lads up with the tacit approval of the three stooges .... nah!

| Watched the debacle on TV, totally out played by a full time highly paid and subsidised outfit destined for SL, no malice to Toronto but we and the other Championship clubs are not facing this team on an even playing field.
The way the great sport of RL has been run since the inception of Soooper Dooper League is one of the main factors why I no longer attend matches, its run by cowboys. Wave enough cash at the RFL/SKY and you can break any rule you like, Salary Cap, Overseas players....you name it.
Thought of the day, Toronto is in Canada right, so surely there are limits on the number of Non Canadian players they can have, I think there were only maybe one or two actual Candians on display today...some others may once have said aboot or had some Maple Syrup does that now qualify???
None of the Championship clubs will prosper while ever we are not expected to play on a level playing field, the french last year and now Toronto, who's next The Mexico City Bandits!!!.
It's clear that were on a level playing field then, the salary cap for Championship clubs is 50% of turnover or relevant income....how much income have Toronto got from gate money etc?
Until there is a massive shakeup in the way our sport it run I am done with RL

| The French didn't have a choice so don't have a go at them. They would have preferred to have entered the Championship but that would have raised the heckles of certain C1 & C clubs. What happened today should never be allowed to happen, the system is a joke.
SL should be 14 clubs as should the Championship. Wasps are looking to follow Toulouse and Toronto so more of the same next season maybe ?

| Well all I can say is that was embarrassing .We were outplayed from when the ref blew his whistle .
BUT WE GAVE IN , there were a few players who tried even our try should have been chalked off.
I didn't expect us to win BUT I EXPECTED SOME EFFORT.
The sending off summed up our afternoon !
Biggest crowd of the season also how many will come back .
What will our coach say ? Where is the leadership on & off the pitch.

| No effort at all and GT couldn't pick his nose playing a team like that and we have smallest pack on the pitch this season.
Kes could have gone for kicking in second half as well as Jamie.

| First try .... we dropped the ball.
Second try ... three players took Moimoi up top, nobody went for his legs.
Umpteen forward passes later ...game over.
The ref was that embarrassed he even gave a couple.
That was everything bad about this current set-up in this league.
I will make the Leeds game my last ... I am finished with it.
I said I would if more of this money-club induction carried on, but didn't stick to it.
As for Donny harbouring thoughts of promotion ... get real!
Gonna walk away from this stinking game ....
While ever there is a placement club.

They will just trot out how good Toronto were, how they are full time and how hard it is to play against that.
They won't mention how come a supposed promotion contender played like it didn't give a sh/t and were made to look like amateurs.
Never mind these are exciting times ... Toronto are here and they are the future.
Like I give a sh/t about Toronto.
Here's to GT ... you're doing a great job!

| Im afraid I have to agree. The game of rugby league has been destroyed in this country...especially at the lower professional level. What I witnessed today was a complete farce. I was embarrassed for the game. Sport is about competition. Without at least a semblance of a level playing field then what is the point?
Some of the Dons players gave up at a fairly early stage. That is unforgivable for a professional sportsman...even in these ridiculous circumstances.
Rugby League used to mean everything to me. Playing and watching. It has become a joke...and a fairly boring game to watch. I find it all fairly heartbreaking to be honest. The game sold its soul to the devil when it took the Sky millions. It has been a downward spiral ever since. I remember people predicting this at the time and me thinking they were dinosaurs. Turns out they were right.

| Some reaction from GT on the Official Site embarrassing etc
Some looking in mirrors is called for too.
How everyone including the fans respond when we go to York on Friday will be interesting .

| I couldn't make the game today and relied on the clubs Twitter updates for which I am grateful, but even that appeared embarrassed by the way we were shipping try's.
Cant blame Toronto but you have to question how the RFL can think allowing a full time squad into Championship 1 is "good for the game".
