Can anyone tell me if you will still get something for annual winning the league? Akin to the current leaders shield?

True, I agree.

I thought they did try plan B which was the offload.
Normally we are not an offloading team yet it was tried at Odsal.
Trouble was that everytime it was tried the player to whom the offload was passed to didn't expect it and the ball was dropped.

A breakdown of how the fixtures in the post split "Super 8s" workshttps://rflmedia.therfl.co.uk/images/imagesource.php?image

Just tried to work out how the full fixture list would pan out week by week and I reckon a realistic run based on this year's table is something like:

Castleford (H)
St Helens (A)
Widnes (H)
Huddersfield (A)
Warrington (H)
Catalans (H)
Leeds (A)

We will need to be on top of our game for a much longer period, there's only Widnes and Catalans I'd have a lot of confidence about there. Add in that the CC semis and final will be amongst that lot then the play offs after and August - Mid October will be bloody brilliant for us fans. Tough going for the players though, fair play to whoever comes out on top!

The $64,000 question...?
