Wigan can't pick Saints, they choose between the other 2 semi finalists

Why not? Is it not a free choice?

There is no way, absolutely no way on this earth, that Wigan would pick the Wire in the semi. Even if Leeds win by 60, and we sneak through in extra time losing Briers, Hodgson and Monas in the process they'd still pick the Rhinos. Club Call is a waste of time and just delays ticket sales for an extra day-and give play-off crowds we can do without anything that hinders that. If we win we play Saints, if Hull win they play Wigan. Catalans/Leeds will have to wait and see what happens Saturday.

Saints are guaranteed a home tie by winning in Week 1 so therefore they cannot be chosen.
Like last year we couldn't pick Saints because they beat Wigan in week 1, we had to choose between Wigan and Leeds.

| There is no way anyone is ever going to be picking a team other than the lowest ranked team in club call. It's a nice idea but it's not been properly thought through.

| When is Club Call? We were talking yesterday about getting seated tickets from Saints next to the away end online tomorrow night if we beat Hull - would rather be in our end obviously, but could see 2,500 tickets selling out to season ticket holders - but I don't want to run the risk of doing that while there's still a possibility Wigan could throw a firework into the mix and pick us.

It was Sunday last year after the Wigan game so I'd presume the same again, after ours on Saturday maybe?

| Great.
I'll be out then, so if it is Saints their "Family Stand" corner next to the away end better not be sold out when I get home on Sunday night!

| Correction. The event starts at 12:00, so the announcement could be anytime after that.

It won't be, don't worry. There will be plenty of seated tickets available, but both standing areas will no doubt sell out quickly.
You don't need to be near the away fans either, Saints fans are all lovely.

I do if I want the tickets to be £5 cheaper than they are in the middle of the stand.

I agree, in practice it's awful. In principle though it was a semi decent idea, it would cause a major stir in the sport and would get some national coverage if they didn't choose the lowest ranked, don't you think? It would turn a potentially benign semi final into a massive battle as the chosen team attempt to prove them wrong.
I don't think we've ever seen it where a lower ranked team was clearly better than the other, so it's not really had a chance.

| Does anyone know which day the semi final would be on?
Providing we get there first, of course.
