Widnes v Hull is the Thursday game following the Magic weekend.
If there is any "duty of care" then both those teams should play their "Magic" games on the Saturday

Wigan are away at Catalan the week before the Magic weekend, so they should play on the Sunday.

But this is the RFL so anything can happen.

What about if there's a "surprise package"? Cas playing wakefield with Saints playing Wire could have easily cost you the LLS last season. There's no way there should be a mis-matched fixture list now teams can be relegated.

I agree. There is no need for the extra fixture.

They should have held this over for the Super 8's

There are 7 fixtures in the Super 8's, So Magic Weekend would allow for that to be an even amount of home games.

Each day could be 4 fixtures. 2 from the middle 8 and 2 from the top 8.

The issue is the timing but with a move of stadia, this should have been taken into account.

Agreed. We will meet as the last game on Saturday. Rogues, Hull will play Hull KR on Saturday and the weekend ends with a clash of magnificence.... Wakey v Cas!

Personally, as it is an extra fixture it has run its course. It started out as a "Derby" event but Wigan and Leeds is hardly a derby clash. The only time I think it worked was at Murrayfield when the previous seasons top four went into a hat and produced two fixtures, then 5th to 8th and then 9th to 12th.

Again, only my opinion but this round of fixture should not be an extra fixture.

Hull and Widnes both play on the Saturday - We meet at 1900 hours on the Saturday to close the day.

theres a copy of a poster/advert on facebook advertising Leeds v Us at Newcastle magic 2015...don't know how valid it is though

There's a surprise.

Also, this made me laugh:

After the first half of the season is done, whoever finishes 1 plays 2, whoever finishes 3 plays 4 etc etc.
Then have 3 magic weekends, Top 8 being the main one at the big stadium, have the 2nd tier magic at a decent sized stadium like the Reebok and the 3rd tier at a superleague ground.

7pm for Wigan v Leeds - there's a good few who won't remember a thing about the game!

I have looked for hotels etc for the Saturday but all seemed booked up.

Does anyone know if there is a day coach trip

mayfair travel more than likely
