a pointless trophy given to the best of the worst clubs that couldn't make the top 8

And? We still want to win it

It means you are the cream of the crap

there is no such thing as the qualifiers shield.

Except you don't get anything for finishing 'top' of the qualifiers though. Other than retaining SL status.

So we still wona win it

The Bev Risman Trophy for beating Leigh two years ago

Based on each of the M8 tables since they started, we need to win 5 games to avoid the MOG. That really doesn't give much room for stuffing up - we certainly can't afford to lose any game that we 'should' win.

The worry for me is this time there is no Watkins, he was way too good for the middle 8's last time and carved it up.

yes he did. you would hope the likes of moon should pull his finger out of his arriss, Because he should be able to stroll through championship defenses at will, i would hope Bricsoe and hall can as well.

Yep
I said it earlier, we need to win 5 to make sure, but if results go against us, 3 teams could finish on 8 points, then we have a problem

Points Club Games
14 Hull KR Win all 7
12 Salford Lost to HKR (A)
8 Leeds Lost to Salford (H). HKR (H), Widnes (A)
8 Toronto Lost to HKR (H), Leeds (A), Salford (A)
8 Widnes Lost to HKR (A), Toronto (A), Salford (A)
4 Halifax Won London (A), Toulouse (A)
2 London Won Toulouse (H)
0 Toulouse Lost all 7

If we lose to all three of those SL fodder teams in the M8's, 2 of them at home, then we deserve to go down and the club would need to take its medicine and start again from scratch down in the Championship because that would be exactly where this group of players should be if that happened. It won't though so don't worry
