USA Season : 2010

This was the last season of the AMNRL as the only RL competition in the USA. The six round series was won by New Haven Warriors, tied with the Jacksonville Axemen but for points differential. The ten metre defensive line can lead to scores blowing out and the two bottom sides were on the receiving end of some of them. Pittsburgh was on its first season and was gone for 2011.

For the following season, many clubs switched to the newly formed USARL. Two competitions ran side by side for a few years thereafter but it wasn't an ideal situation and one was always going to win out.
