My thoughts exactly. I don't agree that this year's title will be somehow less valid. Obviously there have been a lot of unique difficulties this year, but ultimately, there have been qualifying rounds, there will be play-offs and there will be a champion, same as ever. Hopefully it will be Wire!

Explaining this to my family - I made an appropriate Spoonerism as I referred to it as:

"The Super League play-offs this year have changed, it's now a knock off format..."

Well it looks like we will finish 3rd then and have to play next week but will at least be rested this week. I. Hope they count a game this week against linehams ban whilst it's a joke ban anyway. Maybe we should send him to redhall to appeal it in a saints tracksuit. Always seems to work for them.

I think it's fair enough what they've done in expanding the playoffs, although I think it should have been 5 teams. Leeds v Catalans as a shootout to decide the last position whilst there was nobody else in contention to make top 4 and then run the playoffs as scheduled. Nevermind.

As I've said in a post before, let's just get on with it, it could have been us in top spot with a pies victory.
We play Hull, in good form, we're abit Rusty but time to step up our big guns
BBM last game if we lose, so hell be pumped big time.
When all done whatever the outcome we have the best Xmas prezzie.... Called GI

Yes, but Wigan have still a game to play.

Its odd that they're not making Catalan & Saints play, since that could affect the 4th & 5th placings - academic in terms of play-off, as 4 plays 5, but maybe impacts on any finishing place money/bonus.

I guess it suits Saints, but don't know if there's been any official announcement/explaination as to why that game isn't going ahead.

Seems like they're now saying it's because of Covid and international travel....

Think some of you are forgetting if Wigan get beat by the Giants we will go 2nd, this game is important for the Giants as it will guarantee 7th which is the standby team for the play offs.

I think that Salford will beat Wakefield and clinch 7th we'll stick on 3rd in form FC or our current nemesis we'll need to be on top of our game

Can see why you all don't agree with my comment but we all know that only the fans of the team that wins it will rate it.

It'll be a win with an asterix next to it. Plus I would quite like to be there in person to see our first win. I also want our win to be after a full interrupted season where no one can question whether we deserve it or not.

Just the way I feel

Also had Saints lost to Catalan too, then Wires would have topped the table, but now we are denied that potential.

Did all the clubs agree to the hokey fixture cancellations and the possible implications ?

Seems that Salford v Wakey is a dead rubber now after Salford's win deduction for financial irregularities.

Salford have been deducted 3 wins with immediate effect, so as far as I can tell they won't come in to contention. I'm pretty sure that means Huddersfield will definitely get the standby spot regardless.

Well then let's win it this season and then win it again next season and have an even bigger party.

Nah. I want to see the Leeds, Wigan or saints species faces when I'm walking out of OT after our first time.

You'll never get the first time back. I'm prepared to wait another 10 years if it means its done properly.
