Tempting as that sounds, I understand that you can't deny a team a home semi by picking them, so providing you win in week 1 that little scenario won't happen.

| Anybody.
We're not in good form but hopefully we'll find some in the next couple of weeks. If we do we can beat anybody but if not the teams are much of a muchness.

| Even if Wire were to be lucky enough to get through to the final against Wigan, I can't see our old men having the stamina to play two tough matches in a row.

Yep bang on, very good chance of us playing them 3 times in 4 weeks at the DW. And the RFL wonder why the P/Os are so poorly attended.

| Yep and you can beat them 50-0 in those first two games, if they beat you in the semi thats all that counts, they go to the final and your season is over.

Yep. You can get a team finishing 4th lose one play-off game and make the GF and the team finishing 1st lose one game and not make the GF. That sums up the problem with the top 8 system we use.

| What about this so finishing top 2 get you the first week off.
One game to get to the final.
and two bites of the cherry in case the lose first game.
Finish 3rd or lower you play 4 weeks on the bounce
Week 1 sees us lose two team
Week 2 we lose another
Week 3 another
Week 4 final
Week 1
A. 3 v 6 loser out
B. 4 v 5 loser out
Week 2
A v B, loser out
C. 1 v 2 (winner to final) loser to A v B
Week 3
D. A v B winner v C loser
Week 4
Final

| That's what we used before the current system. Much better in my opinion.

| I still think top 6 is too many from 14 teams. It should be top 5.

Top 5 is ideal as it doesn't reward mediocrity. Not sure how the rounds would work though.

It used to be as above week 1
week 2
3. 1st v winner 1 (winner to final)
4. Loser 1 v winner 2 (loser eliminated)
week 3
5 loser 3 v winner 4
Final winner 3 v winner 5
By this method you have to beat all the teams who finish higher than you to win the trophy, whereas last season Leeds (5th) won it but didn't beat Wigan (2nd and reigning champs).
