Not sure if these middle 8 fixtures need a rethink, you judge.
Team Finishing 1st in Championship will play 2nd, 3rd and 4th in the Championship at home plus 11th in SL at home. Away games will be to 9th, 10th and 12th in SL
Team Finishing 4th in Championship will play 9th, 10th and 11th from SL at home. Away games being 1st, 2nd and 3rd from Championship plus 12th placed SL team.
So team finishing 1st have to travel to 3 SL clubs, whilst 4th placed champ team gets home advantage against 3 SL teams

Steve,
I quite agree with your sentiments.
But I do believe that to finsh in the top 3 of the middle 8 you'll need to aim for 10pts. since with all things panning out to team stregnths the table should look like:
1st Strongest: 14pts
2ndStrongest: 12pts
3rdStrongest: 10pts
4th Strongest: 8 pts
5th Strongest: 6 pts
6th Strongest: 4 pts
7th Strongest: 2 pts
8th Strongest: 0 pts
I realise that this will change since there will be upsets in the middle 8.
So the aim has to be 5+ wins in the middle 8 (10pts) to get in the top 3, with a secondary goal of aiming for 3+ wins (6pts) for 5th place and a win in the £1M game.
Roll on the 2015 season, I can't wait for it to start now.

As an aside, and to give you a laugh here is my predictions from the TotalRL board.

Go on just for the fun of getting it totally wrong:
1 = Leigh
2 = Bradford
3 = Fev
4 = Fax
5 = London
6 = Dewsbury
7 = Sheffield
8 = Workington
9 = Batley
10 = Doncaster
11 = Hunslet
12 = Whitehaven

i never write on these boards only read them but i find your comment about the four from leeds strange as all 4 were playing super league last year all be it wiyh the worst 2 teams ie bradford and london carnt see them being bit part players.'"
I don't believe they will only be bit part players. But I was replying to the fax fan who claims to have inside info from leeds ( and every other club in RL) that they would be no more than bit part players. |

Why would the second from bottom super league team have the disadvantage of playing away and the team in 12th play at home? |

not sure thats right looking at the grid. I think the 2nd bottom sl team is the 5th ranked team and they play the 6th rank (12th SL) at home
How will the Super 8s work?
Clubs will each play seven fixtures on a league basis.
Clubs which have performed strongest in their respective competitions in the regular season will be rewarded with four fixtures as followshttps://media.prorl.co.uk/images/imagesource.php?image
any team coming forth In the championship may as well not bother in the super 8 lol
where as team who win the championship get 4 pretty winnable home games |

does it though???? its a matter of opinion as to whether it actually does work like that, there's an obvious difference between finishing 1st and 4th in the championship that is clear, but....
Some teams would say that they would rather play the top teams at home and the lesser teams they are more likely to beat away.
you could argue that the 2nd placed champ team has it slightly easier

That was sort of the point I was trying to make a few posts back. I am not sure how fair that fixture pattern is either.
