I would imagine Yes, if they are unable to complete the season.

| Probably just award a win for every team who played them and a win for remaining fixtures. Otherwise it wouldn't be fair as Leeds would potentially lose out as they play 3 games against them this season.

Good point and I didn't think about that... but it will still adjust the table, because anyone who has played them and lost will gain 2 points.
I assume they will adjust the points for & against as well?

What would that matter though? Performances on the field are the last thing that the RFL take in to consideration for licensing. If they do manage to get through this, and its a big if, then as long as they are sound in every other aspect it will give them time to grow.

But it will adjust for everyone as everyone will be awarded a win for every game against the Bulls. For the points difference, they could just say 0 or a win by 10. Just guess work at the min. Knowing the RFL they'll probably let current results stand and award wins for the remaining fixtures.

| I think the best way of doing it is probably to wipe all of their results except the Magic Weekend one, so every team has played 25 games on the table at the end of the season, instead of Leeds having 24.

Probably better to give everyone 2 points for each of the Bulls fixtures with a win by 10 points. What would have happened if the Bulls had won at Manchester? I think Leeds would be calling it unfair.

| I hate to say this, because I want Bradford in SL, but at this stage I think they (sadly) need to face the consequences, even if that means they disappear. I hope that the city of Bradford sees SL rugby again, sooner rather than later, but some form of bail-out sends the wrong message. Its definitely not Bradford's fault alone, and the whole of SL suffers (though not as much as Bradford obviously) from their going under...but the game needs a massive kick up the - in Nigel Wood's case a kick big enough to knock him somewhere over the other side of North Sea - and maybe this is it. Its kind of like Greece and the Euro, we're heading for a meltdown - if you can't see it, sorry you're blind. You can pluck figures out about increasing attendances, etc. and in that lies hope .... but the fact that nobody outside the local chippy wants to sponsor the game tells you what you really need to know about the path we're on. We need to wake up, take some pain if needed, but get some decent leadership with vision, plus vitally the ability to communicate, and put the game on the path to growth.

They would typically just wipe out all Bradford's fixtures, as if they never existed.
The problem with Leeds' extra fixture is an interesting one. The ONLY fair way to do it would be to remove all the Magic Weekend results. Having an unbalanced fixture list is another stupid idea by the RFL.
