| Quote: reffy "Everyone should appreciate, by now , that the league is only a qualifying competition. We didn't last season so hopefully the penny has dropped that bragging rights we accumulated due to our excellent league results meant sod all when the meaningful games started.'"
I believe the bragging rights was an accumulation of the last two seasons.And well deserved to carry those bragging rights into the 8's.
Championship Table.
Leigh. Lost 1. I think we are done strengthening for 2016, although we could end up being weaker if the SC doesn't rise.
Bradford.lost 4. Still strengthening for 2016
Sheffield.Lost 6. Full time,Full time and building for 2016
Halifax.Lost 7. Still strengthening for 2016
My worry being,2016 will be even tougher,will we have the strength in depth with the core 25? Will we have the same core 25 players we have now, if the SC again doesn't rise?
Can we afford (results wise in 2016) to bring players in outside that core 25 to rotate should we lose 5 or 6 core players due to the SC not rising?
2015 season had the possibility to rotate,probably not used wisely.But what happens in 2016 if we don't have that possibility,if we don't have those decent rotational players.
Are we not digging a hole for ourselves with trying to get Chase to fit under the cap? Will we be able to rest players on weaker fixtures?

| Quote: Lowton_Sparrow "Difficult run into the Super 8s, don't know if that's a good thing to build intensity or a bad thing as could cause fatigue or cause us to miss out on a league position. We'll have to see how it all stands at the time. Good fixtures though, other than that no big long very difficult runs, no long distance away games close together. Looking forward to the season now.'"
5 of the last 7 are at home,don't think you can complain about that.
A lot easier for the players to prepare for,less travelling and quicker recovery time.

Just checked. Leigh are 2/9 to win the Championship outright for next season and Fax 40-1.

| Your run in to the middle 8's ideal... We had a similar run in last year and we dropped 7 points in the last 5 games! Not ideal for momentum but better to be playing in tough games than walk overs. Didn't do us any harm reaching the MPG, although nothing to shout about from that point.

| Quote: Lowton_Sparrow "I think we'll lose more than once in the league this year, as we've now learnt it isn't the be all and end all. Plus I think we'll lose at Odsal in Febuary, a difficult enough place at the best of times never mind in the middle of winter. An early defeat will then stop dreams of a record breaking winning run & we can just get on with the normal season. Honestly think loseing so few was part of the problem, didn't know how to shrug off a defeat and move on.'"
Talking sense there. You can't really expect to go unbeaten through the whole season, especially when you have to play Fax twice! A country mile and all that. Magic Rock Tap, shudds. Ringmaster 3.9 % Mmm!

Think Fax will miss out on The Qualifiers this year then?
