| Quote Mission="Mission"I've devised an alternative super league table in an attempt to more accurately predict a teams final position better than the actual super league table by recognising that some teams are 'better' than others.
I've done this by separating the teams into two groups. Group A teams I would regard as the top sides in the league which are highly likely to get a play off spot. Group B teams are the other sides which will be scrapping it out for the last couple of play off spots.
Group A is Warrington, Wigan, Saints, Leeds, Huddersfield, Catalans
Group B is Bradford, Castleford, Wakefield, Salford, Hull FC, Hull KR, London, Widnes
The scoring works like this: every point a team wins against a group A team gets added to their score (+2 for a win, +1 for a draw). Against a group B team, they lose points (-1 for a draw, -2 for a loss). Finally group A teams start with a score of 2, group B teams start with a score of -2 (this is because group A teams play less games against other group A teams than group B teams do because they don't play themselves, and vice versa).
Why is this better than the normal table? Because if for example, with 3 games to go, team A is in 8th place and team B is in 9th place in the real table, but team A's final three games are Wigan, St Helens, Leeds whereas team B's final three games are Widnes, Wakefield, Salford the alternate table would show team B higher than team A.
For Bradford, the aim is to achieve a score of 0 or more to be pretty sure of getting a playoff spot.
The table as it stands:

| sorry Mission you've got to re-think the scoring: shouldnt a -2 team should get more for beating a +2 team than 0, and a +2 team get penalised for losing to a -2 team? how about the total score for a game where teams for different pools are playing being calculated as the teams own rating ie +2/-2 plus the points for the game ie 0,1 or 2 PLUS their opponents rating . so a top team playing a bottom team would get +2 plus 2 if they won plus -2 = 2 and if they lost, nothing. if they beat a top team its still only +4.
what do you think? How would this change the table?

| I'm going to stick up for Mission, as I think he's getting a lot of grief on this thread
The table won't 'prove' anything, its just an interesting perspective. It's same as things like tables based on 'recent form'. They are interesting and enable us to see which teams are performing in particular ways
I, for one, look forward to seeing how this table develops. It's hard to tell much after one round. Once everyone has played six matches it will be more interesting

| Come the end of the season the table should be in the same order as the super league table - thats the point. the idea is simply to take into account whether a team has played more difficult games and be a better prediction of the final league standings through the year. for example i know we were all disappointed to lose this weekend but you could argue that its not a team you would expect to beat and not as bad as say salford who lost to castleford, a team you'd be looking to beat to make the 8.
Can you tell i was a bit bored this lunchtime?
