do me a big favour smash them all over next week.

wakey never turned up first half it cost us.


sorry to here about chev.

i watch the game last night made me feel sick after that takle hope he is ok

We don't play them Hudds do.

Huddersfield play the lowest ranked winner, since Catalan finished 8th that means that Hudds v Catalans is already sorted.

We play the winner of Wigan v Cas tomorrow.

thought we played u if we won so would that not make u play them

Hudds finished 3rd so they play the lowest placed winning team from the sudden death rounds.

Rovers finished 4th so play the highest placed winner from the sudden death rounds.

5th Wakey = Out
6th Wigan
7th Cas
8th Cats = Lowest placed Winner

This leads to the question IF we win next week and If Cats won again who would Leeds pick?
That situation would make it interesting.

I think Leeds would pick you again due to them having just played against you and will already be prepared after preparing for you this week (think that makes sense)

Not just saying that because it is Rovers, i just think that is how i would be thinking.

this situation proves what a farce the new format for the play offs are. they should have just left it as the top 6.

would be an interesting choice. Catalan did beat Leeds in france earlier in the year though.

also they are a big physical side, who can rattle teams if they are in the mood.

but then playing 3 games in another country in a row could have a bad effect on them

I think Leeds choice will also take into account which team could rough Saints up the most in the other game

eddie on sky said last night that catalan would be making the trip to east yorkshire

It's pretty comical really. I think it's a great system. Two teams will be waiting with baited breath and when Leeds choose it will be a "Doh!!!" from one of them. Hopefully not us.

I will be happy for Rovers to be in the position to be chosen.



Personally , I think the choosing the opposition is taking the tinkering a bit too far.

You might be right, but other than that I think it's a fair format. I'd probably have a different perspective if we were one of the top 2 teams.

leeds will just pick the lowest placed team left in the comp. Do you really think they'll send you to KR so you'll beat saints for them and they'll have it easier in the final?

It'll be interesting to find out when the decision is made and by whom.

Is the the club chairman or the coach and will it be done live on Sky?

Apparrently at the beginning of the season a number of club officials made it clear to some people in the media that given the choice they would simply chose the lowest placed team on principle.

I would imagine that the decision will be live on Sky so that they are first with the news , which is fair enough I suppose as they are the paymasters.

There must be some already agreed timeframe for the decision for logistical purposes etc.

its going to be live on skysportsnews, so the time will have been agreed, but i can't remember what time it will be

If it is the Sunday night slot , how long will it before Offiah manages a reference to Richie Myler.

Or

top 8 teams and 1v8 2v7 3v4 5v6
Then knock out format from there i.e qf sf then the final.

You mean go back to the old style playoffs which was never succesful.

It would make a mockery of it being classed as the biggest trophy then. CC Cup would again be the sought after prize as it would be harder to win than the playoffs.

Offiah should concentrate on his DJ slot or ice dance as his punditry is badly lacking!

How stupid do you feel now?

And they playoffs would not be harder? TOP 8 teams in sl not a easy first and second round tie like CC.
