Playoff Rugby is back a must win game for both sides, for whoever loses they would need to win their remaining 4 matches to stand a chance of promotion which is highly unlikely. Should be a close game been wondering who the bookies will make favourite I guess that they will make Halifax slight favourites because they have played the better rugby in the last few weeks should be close but i will go Halifax by 4 points 28-24 hopefully i will be proved wrong

Thanks AC! Will have the preview for this game online by the end of today.

Definitely our most 'winnable' match in the Qualifiers, it'd be nice to get off the board in week 3 and show why we came 3rd and Halifax one place below in the Championship. Whether we will get that elusive win remains to be seen but with no pressure on either side, Sunday should be a great contest.

No pressure ?

They seem quite confident of finishing 4th or 5th - Be nice to finish one place above them,again.

Compared to our fellow Championship sides in the Qualifiers, who are currently full-time professionals? Yes, no pressure.

I would suggest to you that no-one wants to finish bottom.

We've never finished bottom.

This is a playoff - we finished 3rd in the league so it doesn't count!

The funding structure suggests otherwise.

I may have his wrong,( I very often do ) but does your quote suggest/mean that there is more financial reward for finishing higher in the Qualifiers Table?

I was of the opinion that the financial reward,the only one,was for finishing 3rd in the regular season league table.

If there is more money available it would be unfair to reward the Super League clubs who have enough advantage as it is;not just with central funding but with television money.

Back on thread - I didn't see Jamie Langley at Widnes.Is he fit for selection,as a player, for this game?

I would love to think that all the sky money for the middle 8's is equally divided with all 8 sides but unlikely I presume all clubs keep home revenue so i presume they keep all media revenue as well i would be very interested to find out how much sky are paying for middle 8 live tv because the championship is in desperate need for live TV, OK Premier Sports were a bit basic and the timeslots were not really fan friendly at least we had a live game every week.

BT Sports have increased the number of Sports Channels and show topflight Rugby Union would they be interested in Rugby League ? if so lets have a proper bidding process i guess at the moment this what happens
RFL "hello is that sky"
Sky Sports "yes"
RFL "would you be interested in having the super league next season"
Sky "I am sure we can find space in our schedule"
RFL "Thank you very much"
