Quite right.

It was obvious Leigh were going to come out firing like a cup final though, win this and SL is achieved. Huddersfield players came out looking like it was a testimonial or something, hence game over after 15 minutes shocking really.

Fair play to Huddersfield for the last 20mins. Made a fight of it but left it way to late.

Congratulations to Leigh.
They learned well from last season and deserve their spot in SL.
It will be interesting to see if they can beat Batley and then set up a "decider" with Leeds.

A pity that Hudds only started playing after 55 mins, was it complacency ?

Don't Huddersfield always struggle when it comes to crunchtime/ the end of the season? The fact their in the middle eights just makes it more dangerous.

yep always fail when the big games come along

3 wins previous to this game, low intensity affairs, caught out today by leigh who were ready

when will the giants learn?! happened at salford the other week too

then again some players are off anyway next season so wont be bothered , us fans have to suffer again

oh well they might realise now they have to win the last 2 games to avoid mpg

Well done to Leigh. Very well deserved.
I could see the RFL pushing up 2 teams in 2017.
If Toulouse put on a good showing during the year then there is no good reason why SL could not expand to 14 again with Toulouse plus 1 other.

Pure speculation but if they can pull in the crowds and get in the middle 8's why not?

This years SL teams plus Leigh and Toulouse with everyone playing each other twice and a top 6 playoffs would make a good league imo. I dont think the 8's will be abandoned yet though.

Wonder what the good doctor made of this afternoons events?

With 14 teams you could sustain a 2 up 2 down.

Bottom of SL automatic relegation.
Top of Champ automatic promotion.

Then million pound game between SL 2nd from bottom and Champ 2nd from top.

I think that every 3 years we should have a wheel with lot's of different format's on it, spin it and whichever format is landed on is the one we use for 3 years. We must change the format relentlessly.

I also believe that for every team to have something to play for, for ever second of every game we shouldn't tell teams what the format is until the season is over.

I think based on the performance yesterday Huddersfield deserve to be in the MPG at best. Leigh were brilliant, but Huddersfield's attitude was disgraceful.

There's still the possibility that 2 clubs could drop. But that would depend on London winning the MPG, so unlikely.

3rd place will surely come down to points difference and with Salford having London and Batley left I can see them racking up enough points to finish there which would leave Huddersfield and Hull KR for the MPG.

I hear big changes at Huddersfield next season what ever league they are playing in.

Why?
