| Think you always have to go for 1st, just because to win promotion you've got to have that winning mentality. Not sure which is better home against championship or super league. If you win all 4 home gains you're most of the way there & you’re most likely to beat the other Championship clubs. Still not sure it makes a massive difference. How do gates work though, would think with it only being 1 fixture it'd be a spit gate like a playoff game.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.: |

| Will be interesting if our final game at Odsal defines who finishes top or 2nd though!
Lots of opportunity for conspiracy theories..... ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

| Can we revisit this thread towards the end of the season.
A lot of twists and turns before any of it happens!

I agree, and points difference could be crucial.
Irrespective, I feel it would be the biggest ever attended game outside of any top divisional Rugby League !

| I think there is a difference between getting into SL and being ready for SL.
We did the former in 2005.
But being ready means being able to compete with and beat the lower SL teams, home or away.
If we are truly ready, the Middle 8 format will matter less with this fantastic set of lads.
We are not going to buy a new team for SL

| In an 8 team league where each team plays each other only once I'd be pretty confident of being in the top three with 10 points. Even 8 could be enough and would be sure of top 5. Finishing top would be the best option. I think the way this is set up pretty much means if you go up you're ready. Going to be a great end to the season and well done to the RFL for pushing this through. For once I think they've got it right.
