What is the play off format this year , i presumed it was 1st v 2nd for a place in the final , is that still the case?

Explained by the superb Bilko.

Thanks , i'd better wait until the end of the season then to see who we could play in the 2 rds

We will probably be at home to hull or leeds as things stand, then a week off if we win before the semi and then the grand final.



That will mean we play Leeds then have a week off, then play hudds and then have a week off, followed by Bradford, before the play off's mentioned above.



The net result of that will be 3 rest weekends in the last 8 weeks of the season meaning we will be very fresh compared to a side that may have played 8 games without any rest compared to our 5 games.

That's it. Thats the hope. But it's not just rest weekends, its also having no pressure when we play against Huddersfield, Hull KR and Bradford.

No we don't.

Wouldn't fancy Leeds TBH in a play off game, they will be our biggest danger

If we're not good enough too beat Leeds/ Hull/ Saints or Wire on our home ground then we don't deserve to make it.

Your probably right , i would just rather avoid them if we had the choice

He's talking regular season there.

I'm confused then.

Don't we play HKR the week after we play Huddersfield?

After the Hull KR game we have a week off (Challenge Cup Final).
