You'll be fine, as all 4 'Super League' clubs SHOULD be, it's just the 'one off MPG' where one SL club will have to worry about (unless a championship club finishes in the top 3), and if it's you guys in it, then I will eat my hat....well I don't own one, but I will buy one, and chew like 'buggery' ! icon_wink.gif

MPG could be Super league - V - Super league should Leigh not make the same mistake as last year - Not turn up for games

Then we really do have a problem. Also season ticket sales will drop too and the ground improvements will be on hold-again!

Shame for Batley, but I think they'll miss out and it will be Leigh, London, Bradford and Featherston.

Leigh in 2016 aren't as good as they were in 2015 IMO. They don't have the "X-Factor" of Brierley or the game planning of Rowley.

The same also applies to Leeds

It could be interesting on last game of regular season for us we could be playing HKR for 9th which means 4 home games and 3 away.

Really? You mean Leeds, who are currently bottom of the league, aren't as good as the leeds of last year who finished top and won the treble? a046.gif

Difference is, Leeds have got worse from a position of strength.

Leigh have got worse from not being good enough to get into SL in the first place.

Bradford play Featherstone in the last round so unlikely the loser of that match qualifies.

Fair point, hadn't spotted that. Still think one of Halifax or Batley will miss out though.

Think a lot depends on London, can't move from 2nd position and lost comfortably today at home vs Sheffield. They have to go away to both Halifax and Batley and might already be looking at the Middle 8's.

I went to watch the Batley v Fev game today and it certainly looked like Batley didn't fancy the middle 8's because they were appalling for 80 minutes
Fev totally battered them into submission

Positions 1 and 2 are Leigh and London
Positions 3 and 4 is a shootout between Halifax,Batley. Bulls and Fev

Featherstone Rovers are the bolters with 2 games to go but they have to play Halifax away and then play the Bulls at home so that is a big ask and they need 2 wins to make the 4

I'm gonna go for a top 4 of
Leigh
London
Bulls
Halifax (just over Fev)

How are these teams looking, potential to cause leeds any problems?

I suppose it's tricky to call. 12 months ago I don't anybody would've said Leigh would finish dead last in the Middle 8's behind Halifax and Sheffield. I think they were quite naive the way the played in the Middle 8's last year so will be interesting how they approach it this year and if they've learnt any lessons.

In terms of the SL teams, we are looking in as better/decent knick as the others recently. You'd have to wonder what losing their appeal will do to the Salford mindset. Koukash came out the other day and said he might walk away, not exactly great to hear before the Middle 8's campaign and only 1 win in their last 5 and I think they'll be the SL team to be in the Million Pound Game.

IMO Leigh will definitely make the MPG at least this time around,but it would need each of the SL sides to lose the key games to allow them to finish in the top 4 above any of them

From what i have seen this season from all of the sides involved in the middle 8's then I can't see a SL side getting relegated
