Not a dyed in the wool league fan (Chelsea fan) but always been a casual observer ever since the gregory, hanley, NORWEB wigan days of the silk cut in the 80s.

anyway what is the playoff format for the super league this year?

Cheers lads!

Probably won't be decided till August/September.

If Uncle Mo was still in charge, I would imagine if Weegan were top come September, the RFL will abandon the play offs and let Weegan be champions.

As it is, the top 8 play five's and three's to determine who will play who and shove 'apenny to decide home/away

bit daft isnt it?



im a southern boy who played union at school but always preferred watching the league on the telly on grandstand, "there goes the 'ooter!".

always wish it was more universally popular throughout the country cos i think its a great game (better than posh boy union!).

just to clarify im not a wigan fan just im 31 and my first memories of league was watching the silk cut when wigan played there every year.= in late 80s early 90s.

cheers

what year was it (early 90s) that leeds won with schofield?

The play off system is complicated, but I think you can a Wiki on it ....

There's always the McIntyre Final Eights system to give some idea, but that's not exactly how SL does it ...

The only thing Leeds ever won with Schofield was a Yorkshire Cup in 1988.

As far as im aware it's same as last season
