Change to the season

Post by tigerfeat » 26 Oct 2020, 08:15

Apparently being considered this week bringing the season to a end early and going straight into a enlarged play off system involving 5 6 or 8 teams

Only in rugby league... Funny how all the so called big clubs fit in with this criteria... Top 8...If this happens many clubs like ours could of had something to play for weeks ago....seems more like end it now while the right clubs are there before potential to slip down...

Absolutely can you imagine 3 games to win a cc and potentially win a super league from 5th when it's a top 4 playoff.

Catalan shouldn't make it. They ain't playing games so that should move us up 1 position.

Correct and a nice thought.......dependant on whether there is any mileage in the suggestion.

I'm guessing if there is such a change, the old ruling 're minimum number of games played is likely to be flung out of the window also, so I wouldn't pin any hopes on that one.

This is probably being Introduced to save face when Catalans finally pull out of the competition? Stated last week they are considering it? This will remove them from this seasons competition without the publicity of pulling out. They have played enough games. This will probably happen. Cas need to smash into Leeds tonight and ensure they get into the top 8. I would assume a top 8 is what will be decided ?

They'll find a way of including Catalans in the play offs by hook or by crook.

The season is a comedy show but can they wait until we play Leeds again in about 12 days at Home(!!!) and perhaps give Mr Grant a second day of glory

The Powers that be will make sure that Warrington, Leeds, Wigan, Saints & Catalan will be in the play offs, whatever there finishing positions are. If needed they will include all 11 teams, if any one of them are not in the top 8.

I think we need to end the season, save money that's been spent on Bio-Securities measures etc and concentrate on 2021.

Challenge Cup Final did it for me. No crowds, no atmosphere, it's not what the sports about.

Give it up
