That would be interesting!!

I agree.

It would add a certain something to the weekend but the draw for what day each side is going to play on would have to be made months in advance because fans who only go for the day to watch their side would need to know so they can make arrangments.

Very good point regarding the days. Still the idea of sort of WWE style draft pick would be good

We would still get saints though

We are playing for league points so it should be whoever we have on the fixture list for that weekend it should not be an extra game

That would be good, but also don't tell the fans, so we all have to go into Stadium not knowing which 2 teams are ready to come out. It'll be like a Royal Rumble, when one teams entrance music comes on. Obviously that means staying in the ground for upto 7 games but would be amusing.

Would be a good idea if the RFL want all the fans in for the games.

Didn't we lose to Gateshead at Tynecastle?

Honestly I'm amazed the RFL are returning considering the lack of media coverage, zero chance of RL taking off in Edingburgh, and the drain on finances at a time when so many clubs are struggling with poor facilities.

These events are a money drain if all they achieve are a weekend away for the clubs, fans and the regular RL press.

The draw for MM was done on last years positions, top 4 us, leeds, catalan, and saints, then the next 4 were drawn and so on. which meant we could have drawn leeds or catalans.If they do it next time maybe they could do the draw the week before and use the same idea but where the teams are placed at that time and not the year before

Yes we did

I would just stick with the derbies or do it randumly, I think arranging the fixtures like this is abit dodgy.

I would say have all the big ones on the last day though

Castleford V Wakey

Leeds V Bradford

Hull FC V Hull KR

Wigan V Saints


I think a smilar thing could be done with the championship and have it at a rugby league stadium like Warrington maybe.

I think if they go with the derbies the crowds will be bigger for sure.

Bradford and Leeds both would have taken more if they'd have been facing each other as would the Hull clubs.

Other then that i'd like to see them just hand pick the match-ups for the quality of them aswell as their crowd pulling ability like Saints vs Leeds, Wigan vs Wire etc which would be similar match ups in terms of quality.

I dont think we should be playing saints again we have had over kill there last few years and will drive fans away, maybe we should play wire in scotland next year, these scots have seen us play saints twice now so its time for a change me thinks.

Until they make it a regular season fixture and not an extra game they won't be getting any of my money. I'm not against games going on the road but the way the fixtures went this year Hudderfield were basically handed a bye while other clubs had to play fixtures against far superior opponents.

It's penalising success - Saints finish top and so have to play us. hardly fair on them is it

I would like to see a full Challenge cup round played there. Maybe make it just one day and play the quarter finals. It would give the cup the boost it needs and showpiece the game while keeping the league fair.

Derbies will definantly get bigger crowds, the Hull teams would of probably take an extra 500-1000 each if it was the Hull derby. Leeds and Bradford as you say would of taken loads more, although Bradford away support the last few years has been shocking, to think they almost filled the north stand for that game when Radderz scored last minute.
