Think with last nights result Leeds are pretty much shot for the top 8 as are we unless the Doc can rustle up a bit of magic in the appeal on Monday, you've got to think that this years end of season play off series is going to be one hell of a contest with any 5 from 8 being capable of making the top 4.
Much as I loathe them with a passion think Leigh are nailed on the finish top and for me the only benefit of the points reduction is the chance to meet and beat them at the end of the season, putting Salford light in their place would be strangely cathartic and a trip over to Halifax is always one of the most fun things to do.
Would be nice if a secondary broadcaster could share the rights to this with SKY, every game being televised would be wonderful publicity as some of the games will be/are going to be humdingers, think one or two of last season top 4 will be down there so crowd figures will be up and as a result interest in general will be likewise.
As it currently stands would Halifax and London want to go up or meet the criteria and has anything been put in place about teams bringing in players to bolster the squad for the games to try and level the playing field between Championship and SL squads?

I think if we beat saints we are still in with a shout but it would be a big ask if we didn't. I think there was more interest in the middle 8's games last year than some of the top 8 games. I would love to see all of them televised but with Sky having the monopoly I cant see it.
Not sure what the score is if somebody is promoted. I think there is a parachute fund if a team goes down, (or you would hope there would be) but don't know about coming up. They will obviously get a share of the super league money but I don't see why they would receive anything else?

If Widnes beat HKR on Sunday I think thats the top 8 virtually sorted uless you get your points deduction back.
