Best? This an opinion
The Sun is the most popular newspaper in this country, but you would hardly call it the best.

| A super league club is in real danger of being relegated automatically this year with how the fixtures pan out. With Leigh losing today, Catalan losing & Widnes witth their game tomorrow.
Warrington will win the league and probably won't lose a game.
Warrington (P2 W2) - Halifax H, London A, Leigh H, Featherstone A, Hull KR H.
Hull KR (P2 W2) - London H, Featherstone A, Widnes H, Catalan H, Warrington A.
Leigh (P2 W1 L1) - Catalan A, Widnes H, Warrington A, Halifax H, London A.
Catalan (P2 W1 L1) - Leigh H, Halifax A, Featherstone H, Hull KR A, Widnes H.
London (P1 L1) - Featherstone H, Hull KR A, Warrington H, Halifax H, Widnes A, Leigh H.
Widnes (P1 L1) - Halifax A, Featherstone H, Hull KR A, London H, Catalan A.
Can see that London v Leigh & Catalan v Widnes games being very pivotal in the MPG & relegation ride. They'll be the two games on TV on that last Saturday.

I think Leigh will go down in 6th place with Catalan v London for the MPG.

No games currently on sky that weekend apart from Catalans. If it's tight, I'd expect that to be on. Also, based on the games, it's the only one that London have on a Friday and I don't think they've had any Friday home games this season so would expect it to be changed on that too.

| Castleford (PTs 42) - Wakefield H, Huddersfield A, Leeds H, Wigan A, Hull FC H.
Leeds (PTs 32) - St Helens H, Hull FC H, Castleford A, Salford H, Huddersfield A.
Hull FC (PTs 31) - Huddersfield H, Leeds A, Wigan H, Wakefield H, Castleford A
Wakefield (PTs 2icon_cool.gif - Castleford A, Salford A, St Helens H, Hull FC A, Wigan H.
St Helens (PTs 27) - Leeds A, Wigan H, Wakefield A, Huddersfield H, Salford A
Salford (PTs 26) - Wigan A, Wakefield H, Huddersfield H, Leeds A, St Helens H.
Wigan (PTs 25) - Salford H, St Helens A, Hull FC A, Castleford H, Wakefield A
Huddersfield (PTs 23) - Hull FC A, Leeds A, Salford A, St Helens A, Leeds H.
Another interesting battle in the super eights too for the top four. Leeds have a five points clearance of fifth place which could be six if they beat St Helens next week, seven if Leeds win and Salford lose.

Baying for blood (i.e. relegation), has been popular for 1000s of years. Look at the roman gladiators.
Winning the GF is popular if you support a top club, but even neutrals are interested in life or death games.

Then why such a huge difference in attendances etc?
1300 fewer people watched Warrington v Les Catalans in the S8's than in the regular season.
This supposed life and death gladiatorial battle that should be highlight got only 5.3k
last years million pound game got about 1600 fewer than Hull KR's average.

[quote="The Reason":3e09qe5x]Hi Andy
The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

| It's a real shame they haven't got a smaller quota in the championship, might do Catalans some good.

If Catalans are relegated it will be hilarious to watch the usual suspects initial schadenfreude be replaced by the dawning realization that the heartland championship sides will need to deal with losing home games against Bradford and Hull KR and replacing them with Toronto and Les Catalans and the prize money and games against SL for the top 4 possibly going to London, France x2 and Canada.

| Wigan could be one win off after next weekend.
If Cas beat Wakey
Saints lose at Leeds
Wigan win
Wakey will be 4th on 28
Wigan will be 5th on 27 joint with Saints.....
Think they will come down to the wire on that 4th spot who know they will have to travel to Cas.
