Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

Yes Sts finished top yet lost the GF but the yearbooks show they finished top of the table.

Then you weren't reading these forums.
The Wakey fans had great delight in pointing out that they finished above us by virtue of winning the playoff game between us. They went so far as to get emails from both the RFL and SL confirming that final placings are decided AFTER the playoffs and not before. The league table isn't updated because it only covers the weekly rounds.
Now, you might think that this is all meaningless semantics anyway, but there is an important consequence. The prize monies that get divided up between the playoff teams is figured on finishing position after the playoff and not the weekly rounds. So Rovers will have received the money for a 6th place finish rather than a 4th place finish.
It's not a system I particularly agree with, and it's hardly intuitive, but it's the system followed by the RFL and SL. Feel free to check with them.

I'm perfectly chilled, cheers. I was just providing some detail on the issue as I couldn't see a proper explanation elsewhere on the thread. It's not as if there's a great deal of difference between finishing 4th or 6th anyway in terms of prestige.

[quote="Adeybull"] so the panel took the same view as your excellent assessment.[/quote]:44595.jpg |

| Id love to see what the FC fans would say if we finished 5th in 2010....
my betting is you will say weve finished lower then in 2009 - which proves your all talking shiite and you need to get back on your own forum as nothing thats been said is contructive in any way.
GOODBYE.

You finished 4th at the end of the regular season however it doe not end there and after the playoff's you finished 6th.
Either way you won feckall but you still did better than us so we can hardly shout from the rooftops.
Was Cameron Smith talking up the top four in the playoffs of league? We'll never know!

TBF both sides of the argument have validity. It is true that as far as prize money in concerned Rovers finished 6th, but imo the league doesn't lie especially now without the lop sided fixtures of recent years. I would say Rovers finished 4th in all honesty and therefore are a top 4 club.
As an aside and being as prize money is only available to those who finish in a play-off position would it be fair to say that everyone who finished outside the top 8 finished joint last??  |

To be perfectly honest you could ask Cam Smith which teams he was referring to and I wouldn't be surprised if he said 'St Helens, Leeds and errrmm.....well theres um...Wigan?' Such is the Aussies care for SL.
