Still think Leigh will get in. Given the amount of games the other sides have against each other. Be tight though.

Clickbait thread.....well done, I clicked!
We already have such a poll started by another poster (sic)

Haven't you already done a poll similar to this

The original post here was actually fairly sensible, other than the referral to Leigh, when it turned into the same old troll post. Other than Toronto, Leigh are probably most likely to join them in the top 4 given the remaining fixtures (especially with TO failing to beat London today). Fax need to win 3 from 4.

Why are you so concerned whether Leigh get top 4 or not? (you are obviously worried), you are really obsessed with Leigh aren't you?
If Leigh do get in that top 4, then Toronto will have the shock of their lives,because Leigh and the other two will step up, and all the 4 Superleague clubs will put them to the sword.

The 2 polls ask significantly different questions: one asks 'who do you [ithink will make it (Top 4)'[/i and the other 'who do you [iwant to be promoted[/i'............

No, they are identical.

I hope no team gets promoted, none deserve it. Back to franchising for me, leave the minnows to flounder.

No they are not identical, the teams I want to be promoted are unlikely to be the ones I think will be promoted.

Leigh will finish on 32 points. They have a very positive points difference which is only going to get better with 3 more wins. So any other club wanting to be in the top 4 needs to beat this total.

Toronto are in.

Toulouse (Barrow, Halifax and Dewsbury left) have a good points difference and need 3 more points. They should beat Barrow and Dewsbury, so they're in, irrespective of the Halifax result.


Halifax (London, Toulouse and Rochdale left) absolutely have to win at least two of these. Rochdale should be a banker, but they need a win against London or Toulouse.

Featherstone (Swinton, London and Toronto) will likely lose at Toronto and will likely win at Swinton. So they have to beat London to have a chance.

London (Halifax, Featherstone and Barrow) have to win all three.


Likely outcome of those crucial games where these clubs play each other, based on current league positions:

Toulouse (W) v Halifax

London v Halifax (W)

Fev(W) v London

Fev v Toronto (W)

Finishing points:

Toronto - 43
Toulouse - 35
Halifax - 33
Featherstone - 32
Leigh - 32
London - 29


Leigh or Featherstone would then qualify on points difference. You'd expect Leigh to rack up more in their three wins against lower teams than fev will in their two wins against upper teams. Also, Toronto have been handing out big thumpings in Canada, and Featherstone might be in trouble there.

Couple of wildcards.

Halifax play Toulouse in Halifax. Not impossible to see that as a Halifax win. In which case Fax finish on 35, and Toulouse are on 33. But both would still be safe.


On the other hand, Halifax play London at London, and as London will be desperate next week, there could be a loss there. That would be great news for Leigh fans, as it would almost certainly put Halifax out of the picture, without putting London in it, with both finishing on 31 points, and Leigh on 4th without needing to rely on points difference.


Of course, there might be shocks from the lower teams along the way, but it seems unlikely. Which means that for Leigh fans, they'll be cheering on London against Fax, and cheering on Toronto to rack up a big score against Featherstone. It would also be better on balance for Toulouse to beat Fax.


Given the predispositions of some posters on this board, I find it a delicious irony that Leigh fans will almost certainly be relying on the three expansion teams of Toronto, Toulouse and London to keep their hopes of a top four place alive.

Updated table

Toronto 37 +422
Toulouse 29 +375
Halifax 29 +192
Featherstone 28 +332
London 27 +409
Leigh 26 +269

London Leigh and Toronto are the only ones to leave France with any points yet you have us losing to Fax at Home and then away to Fev, who we dismantled earlier in the season...? I see London winning all three which will suit Leigh
Toronto 43
Toulouse 35
London 33
Leigh 32
Fax 31
Fev 30

I hope nobody goes up, because with Bradford in this mix next year, the Championship will AGAIN be more exciting than the stupor League.....and Toronto will have to travel each week........
