Quote: batleyrhino "Should be top 6 with 1 & 2 getting the first week off, 3 playing 6 and 4 playing 5 in knockout games. The winners then play 1 or 2 depending on where they finished in the table, with the winners of those two games contesting the final.

Current "reward" for finishing 1 or 2 is the thankless gimmick of "clubcall". If Wigan and Huddersfield win next weekend, we will simply see a repeat of the first round games with the 4 teams left...'"


It shouldnt be any of that for me.... either
A) Top of the league at end of regular season is champion!! End of!! Nevermind giving hope to teams finishing in 8th flippin place!!! 8th is 8th!! Not good enough
B) Top 4 play off with a random draw format, winner of each match play off in "FINAL" at Old Trafford or Wembley.
C) Top 8 play off in same format as B. Neutral venues.

All these permutations which are in place ala "club calling" are just a money spinning ridiculous format!

Quote: G1 "Fans who have been around since before 1998 need to try and let go of the importance of league placings. The league campaign is a qualifying campaign. Is it unfair if a formula 1 driver doesn't win a race having qualified from pole position?

Before season start everyone knows that to acheive the goal of a championship they will need to defeat the other teams who qualify for the playoffs in a pre-determined format.

Goal 1 is to qualify as high as possible to garner the rewards that come from that. Goal 2 and, perhaps, more important, is to hit your straps at the right time of the season.

Wigan and Huddersfield are sufficiently rewarded with a 2nd bite of the cherry and a home tie against a lower placed team. That is sufficient reward. If they want to earn the right to be champions they should be able to overcome the teams around them. If they can't find form when it matters why find alternate playoff formulae to accomadate them?

If a team ever does win it from outside the top 3 or from within the lower half of the top 8 they will be fully deserved champions having timed their run perfectly and overcome the odds that finishing in the bottom half throws up against them.

In the NFL wild card teams (lowest placed playoff qualifiers) have won the Superbowl and it's not even a topic for discussion. They appreciate the season is merely to qualify for the playoffs.'"


Look no further than Dewsbury in 1973 .... RFL Champions from 8th in the final league table.

Let all the doubters keep doubting and those who believe keep believing. We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in. But you’ve got to keep believing.:86.jpg



Quote: AdmiralHanson "Look no further than Dewsbury in 1973 .... RFL Champions from 8th in the final league table.'"

These modern fans have no respect for the traditions of the game. They're brainwashed into thinking that because something happens in football it's the only way of doing things. So sad.

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj] Kevin Sinfield:982.jpg



Quote: AdmiralHanson "Look no further than Dewsbury in 1973 .... RFL Champions from 8th in the final league table.'"

Just don't mention who they beat.

Has the glory of Dewsbury's greatest achievement been diminished over the year's because they won from 8th? Has it eckers like.

That was before he was bald and before he thought he sounded better after he had those elequsion lessons[yes I know its spelled wrongly],but he really was a good player that day
