Who the hell thought out this system

ATEOTD I reckon 4 more points should see us through, based on the last 2 games we should be ok against Swinton (they seem to be poor this year) if we can put out a half decent team.

See my post above....because of the games remaining 8 probably not be enough.

All will be made clear around 16-45 a week on Sunday - and not a minute sooner it appears

It's easier working it out this year than last year...that was a nightmare (saying that we progressed having played a game less than everyone else which didn't help..we must be the only team in a sporting cup competition to finish runner up but have a game in hand)

We will beat Swinton and I would hope to beat Haven AT HOME, although in recent years Haven have proved to be our boogy team

I actually think this system is far better than the old one, albeit harder to understand. Think it's largely helped by the fact that it goes straight in to the quarter finals rather than an "everyone but Skolars qualifies" last 16.

If we don't qualify then we might have a rather large hole in the budget, I'd reckon

They have been known to lead us a merry dance sometimes I must admit

It's in our own hands. If we can play like we have done in the last two games I'm confident we can win both games assuming we can put a half decent side out. We've picked up a hell of a lot of injuries in the first two games plus we will have suspensions coming up with Hobson and two incidents on report.

Yeah, unless as has been said the breakeaven on LSV is over 2000, in which case we'll make more money by not playing!
