League express understands that Magic Weekend fixtures will be made by odds v even, so 9th v 11th, 10th v 12th. Currently we play Toronto at Magic Weekend.

League express also understand that loop fixtures will be odds playing the 6 even teams. So currently we will play Wigan, Warrington, Wakefield, Catalan, Salford, MPG winner.

So currently we will be playing St Helens, Castleford Tigers, 5th place (Wakefield Trinity or Huddersfield Giants), Catalan Dragons, Salford Red Devils and 11th place (Toronto Wolfpack or Hull Kingston Rovers) as our loop fixtures. Hazard a guess that it’ll be HAHAHA meaning a possible two trips to Catalans and Toronto.

Also means our Magic Weekend game will be the Million Pound game winner.

It would be nice to go to MW with an outside chance of a victory for a change.

You say League Express understands MW will be odds v evens but then go on to quote odds v odds and evens v evens!

Wow thats odd

Sorry got confused with the two. Magic weekend is the team two spots below. 1 v 3, 2 v 4, 5 v 7, 6 v 8, 9 v 11, 10 v 12. So we will play the winner of the Million Pound game.

Our loop fixtures are St Helens, Castleford, Wakefield, Catalan, Salford, Hull KR.

I've no idea but if magic is 9 v 11 won't that mean we play Salford?

Saints v Cas
Wigan v Warrington
Catalans v Wakefield
Huddersfield v Hull fc
Salford v Hull kr
Leeds v Toronto

It's done after 30 games not 23, with 9 to 12 based on the top 4 of the qualifiers.

I don't agree with the loop games, its just too one sided. Also why should 3rd & 4th be away while lower finishing teams get home advantage.

I'd presume if the odds play the evens in loop fixtures and the evens play the odds, then it makes sense for the above format so you don't end up playing a team 4 times in the regular season.

RFL's pets.

Who?

1v3,2v4 etc are the games for Magic Weekend so are at neutral venues.

The loop games I'd guess would be sequenced so for example we are playing teams finishing 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th - we'd either play 1st/5th/9th at home and 3rd/7th/11th away or vice versa.

Cheers. So we officially finish 10th and end the year losing at home to 12th.
