I thought being a sky baby that all games would have been televised. I suppose the last weeks televised games will be picked later to get the best viewing figures.

So we have Friday, Sunday, Saturday mix for Home fixtures similar mix for away plus a Thursday at Cas something for everyone I guess, not including Saturday 29 August as we're not there yet.

ticket prices announced, the club are doing packages for all three games. £45 quid for all 3 games in the south.

Now that is an absolute bargain, great offer from the club.

All these games are going to be tough, doesn't matter who it is.

WOW! Cracking deal

I think this new format is brilliant.... SL coaches have been saying we need more competitive tough fixtures for years.. a couple at the end of the season didn't really help anyone.

Now we have it... Just look at those fixtures ! There is going to be some great rugby.

Also the middle 8's will be great to watch... There will be some ferocious rugby played over the next few months.

That's a tough, but great start for us. Win two out of the three opening games (as long as Castleford is one of those two) and we should be right in the mix bearing in mind that Huddersfield have Wigan and Saints away in their first three games.

As far as i understand the situation the 3 games are covered by the season ticket. Does anyone know any different ?

They are, but the above quoted deals are good for non season ticket holders.

I've worked out I'll be going to three of the aways and two of the homes anyway (missing Cas and Hull because of work) so I'm happy with that. Really looking forward to these games now.

Just need to figure out how I'm gonna get to the club shop to swap her lad's s/t voucher before Headingley next Friday because I've got no plans to be in Warrington between now and then



Hopefully Leeds will let kids in for a fiver or something so I won't be too bothered about it.

When this format was first announced I simply couldn't understand it, but now it's here and I do, I must congratulate the RFL/Superleague on this.

Couple of dodgy m62 trips ,leeds and Castleford but , then who expects RFL to give a damn about the fans ,just hope I can make it in time for kick offs

Looks like its going to be a good end to the season from a TV viewers perspective!
Well done RFL for having the guts to take a chance on shaking things up! These fixtures are much more enticing than the usual end of season build up to the play-offs where the majority of the last few rounds games have nothing riding on them

Wasnt there talk from Roger about 7pm kick-offs being trialled for Thursday games during The 8s. Cant see any. Possible that idea was dropped or might those fixtures change? (We are scheduled to play Catalan the day before the English Half Marathon is taking place and the course included the stadium. Given how long it takes for the cleaning company to clean the stadium, could this one be moved)

try doing it 3 times in 4 weeks! fc have saints away followed by yourselves (before the cc final) then wigan!

Brilliant isn't it? The intensity should jump as well now. Then jump again for the Play-offs.

Even if the four sides from 5th-8th don't make the top four we'll all have a huge say in who does. Catalans can put in performances at the level of the best team in the league, and Hull have beaten Saints Hudds Cas us and Catalans this season and are one of the only teams to push Wigan close at the DW. They are the two lowest ranked sides and even if they don't realistically have a shout for fourth they will want to make a good show of themselves and make life difficult for the team who might make it or might miss out on fourth.

I wonder if training sessions will now involve the defensive line standing offside at the play the ball like most of our opponents will do. The ref can't afford to whistle every time & it may put us on an even footing in the play offs.

totally agree..no more meaningless games and thats how it should be

At least you'll get the week off before Wigan

Looks like Wigan will have the best of those fixtures. 2 weeks off before the first game and 8 days before their next one plus what looks like a nice finish to their 7 games.
Like mentioned here some cracking games to come.
Made even harder for whoever gets to Wembley.

They had 2 weeks off before they came to our place earlier this month & look what happened there

I don't think having two weeks off does a team that much good. You lose focus, spark, sharpness, intensity and can lose form. Against getting a few bruises cleared up, i think if rather play week-after-week.
