John Kears Fingers Will Be Red Raw.

Deffo Leyth v Donny and Fev v Fax, there's no way Fax will lose at home to barrow next week. Sheffield are on a roll and I can see us playing them at Leyth in the semi

Dons only need a bonus point next week to finish 3rd so us v Fax is pretty much nailed on.

Just realised that BBC haven't given Donny their points back so ill backtrack and go for Leyth v fax and Fev v Donny unless its Donny v Fev!

Crikey!! Even Donny can finish second.

Think we'll be playing Fax in the playoffs although with Batley fighting for survival they could pull an upset. Think the most probable upset (still unlikely) though is Keighley beating Fev! We saw ourselves how tough they can be at Cougar Park. We know Fax & Fev won't be going full time next year if they finish 2nd, anyone heard Donny's plans?

Does anyone have an indication of when our game might be played? (Friday night, Sunday etc.). Just wondering if I'd missed an announcement or something and would be quite useful to know for booking travel!

They just announced the game yesterday that it was "a date and time to be confirmed" mate.

So it's confirmed that it's not confirmed yet

when do playoffs start

13th/14th Sept

Might be best waiting for confirmation of that.

Should be a tasty game Leigh Vs Fax with Manu coming back from suspension.

Do you think he would behave himself Greg ?

didn't know you had Manu playing for you , do you mean MANNING

Sorry its a nickname just to clarify I mean Dane Manning.

I dont think Harrison will play him. It will be really risky to do so in my opinion (unless his plan is for 3 or 4 Leigh men to get sent off trying to put him into row Z) !! LOL

Looking at the play-offs , if Fax finish 4th in the League , we would play them at the LSV , if we beat them we would then have a week off ,and play the lowest placed team who win through the Qualifying Games , which would be Fax again at the LSV , if they won their other play-off game , Fax twice



.

And here's hoping there would be more concentration on rugby, by all players concerned.

Sheffield come good again when it matters.

They are the REAL danger !!

Hence why the top 8 playoffs are such a stupid idea, thank god they're gone next season. I don't know though, Leigh V Fax is going to be a big physical tough game, whoever has to play the looser the week after that will be fancying their chances.

Also, with one game remaining, Keighley have won 12 lost 13 and are on 43 points, Whitehaven have won 12 lost 13 and are on 42 points. One is in the play off spots and the other is in the relegation zone! Crazy situation to be in when a bonus point can take you from relegation to playoffs.

And - in theory at least - one of those teams could avoid relegation at the last gasp, finish in the top 8, win the play offs and finish as the Champions !







Only in Rugby League !!! And they wonder why we are never taken seriously by other sports and the media in general.

Don't think Harrison will be playing anyone now!

It's not so crazy as both those teams lost exactly the same number of games and therefor had the exact same opportunity to pick up bonus points from those losses. Obviously one team did better than the other in games thy lost hence the reason they are in a higher position.
