It makes no difference.Wakey used the system to their advantage.You don't bring Brian Smith in, to win titles. You bring him in as a recovery package.

For me I think he's bitten too much off..But who knows in a one off game.

I truly believe for the sake of RL there needs to be promotion and relegation. As a Bulls fan, I also think Leigh should have gone up automatically as they were the best team in the 23 rounds and then there should have been a play off between the other 6 teams.
Wakey have been awful all year. If they don't go down how does that look.
I think for the sake of the game Wakey should take the drop. Yes I know the rules of the play off's but I also believe in fairness for all. Wakey have had their chance this season and didn't even bother to compete because they knew they had this 7 game season at the end to save themselves - all wrong to me.
Good luck to Bradford tomorrow and Leigh again next season.

I agree in principle but i can't see it happening simply because that method on paper generates less income. The current format generates more media interest and more paying bums on seats, though the model at the moment is flawed in that it gives no realistic opportunity for a champ team to gain promotion for many different reasons. imo the main one being the gulf in finance between clubs fighting for promotion from the Super 8 Qualifiers and distribution of televised game money of the Qualifiers .

I think Wakefield will win by 18.

From our clubs point of view that would be best as as we'd get about 30K more in gate receipts next season. Selfish maybe but Frank knows.

I want Bradford to win but it will need a great effort and the rub of the green.

If Bradford win we are going to lose a lot of money in gate receipts,cant see Wakefield bringing more than a couple of hundred spectators to our place

I wanted Bradford to win but Jimmy Lowes is impossible not to hate. The sorest loser of all time. He's had some dummy spits during the season but today topped the lot

Lowes is a poor loser but week in week out refs are making huge blunders and nothing is being done about it.The standard of refereeing is very poor to say the least.As for the result,how can it be right for a team who stated publicly they had no intention of trying to win games in the league be allowed to get/buy a team just for the play offs.Leigh,Bradford and the others had to compete over 23 games (was it ) for the right to make the play offs

Don't let the facts spoil your argument. Of the 13 who started yesterday only 3 were not at Wakey at the start of the season.

What big calls did Silverwood get wrong? The 2 Lowes referred to were actually correct decisions

Which 'blunders' did you consider huge?
