Wouldn't be surprised if SL decided no relegation/promotion if anyone other than Leigh looked likely for bottom spot especially if Toulouse look like Champs. Doubt they really want 2 trips to France.

Promotion and relegation is entirely the remit of the RFL not Super League

Pulled this John Davidson's blog it's call chicken wing.

Fast Eddie
It looks Eddie Battye won't be leaving London to come back to Wakefield this year. Trinity are keen to have him, but the Broncos are holding firm. We're told London won't release the prop unless they sign a suitable replacement. And this stage, Battye will stay in the capital for 2021.

This will age well.........................

That may be true but i doubt the RFL would want to lose another battle with SL. Who knows?

Davidson does get some stuff right that others haven't picked up on but he also gets stuff wrong more often than the likes of Matthew Shaw etc. Example from just before Christmas, he did an "exclusive" on how York and Halifax were battling it out to sign Tom Holmes, within an hour he was announced by Featherstone...

No surprise tbh. It was coming

Sad, particularly as I have sponsored him for last
Few years. We need another prop now as a matter
Of urgency. I hope, given this has been in the air for
Sometime that we have a replacement lined up.........

Not that surprised that eddie has gone. Think its been on the cards soon as he went on loan, obviously negotiations took a while.

We can but hope we got an acceptable amount of money given that so many said we'd get now't.

Agree, hopefully it was worthwhile but a fee is a fee nonetheless.
