I really don't think any of that matters, simply because the teams that were always going to be in the play-offs are still in the play-offs. Bizarre though the season has been, it hasn't really affected who has qualified for the top six. There will still be play-offs and a final, like any other year. I really don't see how winning a grand final this year is any less of an achievement - unless of course one team in the final is scuppered by Covid absentees.

Speaking as a Wigan fan, if Warrington win the GF this year they will get full credit and no griping from me. Every team is doing their best to make the best of a terrible situation, and to keep the game from going bust due to losing the Sky money. I still think Saints are favourite, I still want Wigan to win but whoever does win will have done so as fairly as can be managed and will deserve due credit for the achievement.

When this season is done and dusted would I be correct in thinking the new season would start in February.. If so and we are still cursed with corona virus the new season could be interrupted like this one is.

I'm not sure how we could go into the next season without scrums though, what with the RLWC at the end of next year (noting NRL continued with scrums).
