La Major League Rugby a confirmé que les Dallas Jackals ne participeront pas à la saison 2025 en raison d’un « transfert de participation majoritaire ».

Rejoignant le championnat pour la saison 2022 après un lancement retardé, les Jackals ont montré des progrès réguliers, réalisant leur meilleure saison en 2024 avec six victoires au cours de la saison régulière.

Cette belle saison s’est poursuivie en playoffs, lorsque les Jackals ont battu les Houston SabreCats, leaders du championnat et rivaux de l’État, en demi-finale de la Conférence Ouest.

Depuis, les rumeurs vont bon train quant à leur avenir dans la compétition, la MLR confirmant dans un récent communiqué que le club l’a informée qu’il ne participera pas à la compétition en 2025.

Today @usmlr announced that @DallasJackals will not be participating in the 2025 season.

« Les Dallas Jackals ont informé la League qu’ils ne participeront pas à la compétition de 2025 », est-il indiqué.

« Ils continuent d’évaluer le transfert d’une participation majoritaire, qui ne sera pas achevé à temps pour leur permettre de planifier et de participer à la compétition de 2025.

« MLR continuera à travailler avec les dirigeants de Dallas sur les plans de restructuration dans les jours et les semaines à venir. Nous nous concentrons sur l’équipe, ses joueurs et la planification d’une autre saison réussie de la MLR en 2025. Une annonce sur le processus de redistribution des joueurs sera faite prochainement. »

Dallas suit le Rugby New York, les LA Giltinis, les Toronto Arrows et les Austin Gilgronis comme les équipes qui ont quitté la Major League Rugby au cours des saisons récentes.

I don’t like what Joe is doing with Gleeson. It’s all hands on deck to win the Lions series to bring credibility back to the Wallabies brand in this country, so I don’t think it’s a good idea to discard anybody with that series in mind.

Wales, well they have sold their souls to kiwis and the Palestinian loving Irish obviously place a low value on life as well and consequently, nationality.

Do you ever engage your grey cells before you open your mouth?

McReight as captain doesn’t seem to be working that well. I think McReight has too much to think about. Harry Wilson looks better.

'Ulster, though no one wants to admit it, isn't much more than a development province right now.'

I actually think Ulster are showing a few green shoots this year. The fact that they ahve the second biggest Provincial population of 2.3 million is misleading. Half the population are unlikely to play due to background. The other half have seen a fall off in private school attendance preferring to school in GB esp Scotland and lost to the system. That will reverse in time.

The solution to the thorny issue of participation based on political background can be solved by breaking Rugby as a truly mainstream sport in the rest of Ireland and thus a sport for all no matter what background.

The QF defeat to NZ in 2023 was a devastating blow to that potential but the IRFU must truly put a lot of resources into this via coaching in ‘regular’ schools and pathways though AIL league etc.

The URC standings of Irish provinces needs a little mitigation. Each club in URC plays their home clubs twice. As Leinster have decided the best strategy to win the URC and challenge in Champions Cup is to decisively have the league phase in the bag so resources can be spared later and home matches in all KOs assured. That means Munster, Ulster and Connaught will score a combined total of zero points against Leinster. Compare that to Welsh teams who will score a combined total of 30 points against Dragons.

There is no weak Irish team so no easy points on offer. The standard has dipped a little but Connaught are good as their European campaign shows and all three will improve next year including Ulster.

Wales removed their academies. Ireland didn’t. We are nothing like Wales.

The danger on paper of central contracts is that one Province will dominate and reach an inflection point where they pull away needing a correction. That point has been reached so a correction necessary. That’s not rot.

Yes it will. Nobody gets an Australian, like an Australian.

Funnily enough South Africans say the same about South Africans, Kiwis say the same about

Kiwis, the English say the same about English, the Scottish say the same about Scots, the French say the same about the French.

Wales, well they have sold their souls to kiwis and the Palestinian loving Irish obviously place a low value on life as well and consequently, nationality.

Isn't it great to see the Aussie sides performing well in SR. Here's hoping they can give the B&I lions 3 good games, & of course the other matches. It's obviously good for Australia, it's good for NZ, & fantastic for the international scene. Really looking forward to the tour.

(apologies for the foul language aimed at that moron OJ Nick, talk about demented 😂)
