It’s bizarre your more concerned with expansion clubs not getting into Super League, than your own club existing in 2019.
Has anyone shown any interest in taking over ownership of Leigh when Derek walks away next month?

What's bizarre is that you want to derail this thread.
As your Leigh question on a new thread and see how it goes - leave this thread for talking about the big weekend we have just had in the qualifiers.

Looks like that’ll be the case. For Leeds not really seen them winning the Salford game for a while now but the bans a couple of Salford players are likely to get especially Hastings MIGHT give Leeds a chance. If so then that’s be the top 3 pretty much settled.

TBH I wouldn't rule out Toulouse losing at Toronto next week then knocking off both Hull KR and Salford and still missing out, it seems like the kind of thing they would do.

| A lot now depends on how many weeks ban Jackson Hastings gets. Salford's ability to win is drastically reduced without him.

| HKRs and Halifax's injuries and the almost certain bans from the Salford game, all add a new dimension to the last games.

Agreed, I think Leeds will beat Salford with Jackson Hastings banned (and Luke Burgess). They will then beat Halifax the week after and go into the final game against Toronto with nothing to play for. If Toronto beat Leeds in that game they could still get a top 3 spot, probably at Hull kr’s expense.

That would assume we lost one more game

Could of and should have been more. TO were awful.
Broncos picked up a couple of what looked like bad injuries, finished the game with 12 on the pitch.
Broncos have 2 home games yet.
HKR next week away, they've been up and down, then the the Reds and Fax home. Its not all over yet.

toulouse away could be tricky, shipping 24 points at home today could be costly if it comes down to points difference

Toulouse are a busted flush. They knew that London away was their "must win" game if they were to get 5th spot and they (by all accounts) didn't turn up. They have now to head to Toronto where if they lose they will now it is over for them, before hosting HKR and then travelling to the form side in the 8, Salford for the last game......I genuinely don't see them getting another point.
I think the top 5 will be as they are now with maybe Leeds and HKR switching......with London (6 points) at Toronto (icon_cool.gif for a place at the top table. You'd have to think that the MPG will ave a SL Ref, so London will stand every chance if that is the scenario....

i think you will be surprised how they play at home, may not get a result v toronto, but against SL opposition they will want to put on a good showing at home, dont rule them out just yet!

| Ref today wasn't bad, just very, very inexperienced. We also didn't bother playing for first 30 mins of 2nd half.
Justin Carney injury - we've had to play without him for 6 weeks anyway.
Quinlan Injury - really bad news.
Oh well, another ugly win, but a win nontheless.
Londo seem to have serverely dented Toulouse's hope and Toronto still not beaten an SL side. You might state they'll beat Widnes, but if everyone beats Widnes it doesn't really give them an advantage over the rest does it? Toronto Leeds is now massive.

Referee was weak imo everytime the east stand got on his back he'd give a penalty. With Toronto/Toulouse adding the travelling element it makes these qualifiers even harder to predict, rrtr
