Richard definitely had no intention of changing anything about this so-called Super League idea. He wasn't particularly invested in it—just curious about the whole affair. So, when the invitation eventually came knocking at his door, of course he said yes.
However, after listening to what was being discussed, he quickly grew bored. In the end, he didn't say a single word about the proposal. After all, this meeting was merely an "exploratory discussion," and it was destined to go nowhere.
Supposedly, several major corporate sponsors—most notably Adidas, Telepiù, Canal+, and Sky Italia—were expected to be involved. But since Adidas was now under Richard's control after acquiring it from Tapie, he decided to withdraw Adidas' participation from the controversial event.
