Post-game tussle with Leigh Centurions doesn’t help Wolfpack reputation
TORONTO — The Toronto Wolfpack return home riding a 11-game win streak in England’s second-tier Betfred Championship.
But rugby league’s first transatlantic team is also carrying a reputation as a squad long on talent but short on discipline and composure.
The latest flashpoint was a melee between coaches following Toronto’s 28-26 comeback win Saturday over the Leigh Centurions in Blackpool, England.
“Whether you win or you lose, you have to be able to win with humility and lose with dignity and they’ve not shown that, I don’t think, in recent weeks,” Sky Sports TV analyst Phil Clarke, a former Great Britain and England international, said of the Wolfpack.
