We'll give them a game, hopefully Walker and Peteru will be back

Fancy us to beat Wigan. But cannot believe Saints lost today. London will win a few more yet as well

Peteru out for six weeks isn’t he?

Not seen that, I suppose that'll mean Singleton will continue. Personally, I'd give Muzz a game

London’s incredible win against table toppers St Helens means there are only 4 points between Salford, Wigan, Huddersfield, Leeds, Hull kr and London. Any of those clubs could still go down.

It was previously thought 16 points would make a team safe, that figure could now be 18 or even 20 points.

Fair play to London that's an unbelievable result. The table is really tightening up.

London have 4 games remaining against their relegation rivals (2 against Hull kr). Those games will probably decide who is relegated.

There are 4 points separating Salford in 7th and London at the bottom now. A run of 2/3 wins can see you ease clear and into mid table or on the flip side a 2/3 game losing run could see you right in the poop. Big game for us this week against another relegation rival Wigan at home and we need to keep the winning momentum going and stretch it to 3 in a row.

London's showing this year is also an argument for looking again at franchising. If they get up to 16 points or more and still get relegated, that's a hell of a penalty for a team built very quickly and with every chance to consolidate in the following years. Instead they'll lose some of their better players and start from scratch.

I know the arguments against expansion, but IMO the game has to grow or die, and if the only way we can get enough games is for clubs to play each other 3 times or more we really are overkilling it.

Yes agreed. You could expand with then bringing in Toronto etc next year and all of a sudden the need for repear fixtures goes and the lesgue starts to look nice and competitive whilst growing. Then if Fax Bulls Fev keep getting better what a superb league it would be

Next year would be the perfect time to expand to 14. London have gone really well and it would be a shame if they get relegated. Toronto are going to walk the championship so it looks like they will come up, I would let the team finish top come straight up, no relegation from SL and just move the playoffs in the Championship to 2nd to 6th rather than 1st to
5th, would the existing SL clubs vote for a cut in funding though and would SL dare change the format with less than half the season to go?

I’ve found the repeat fixtures a bit annoying this year TBH

Agreed Christopher. The repeat fixtures imo are bad for the sport. Takes the numbers off the crowds takes the edge off the games and makes the game look confusing from the outside.
