FFS its every chuffin year we have to do this !!!!

So, our loop fixtures are:

Leeds, Huddersfield, Wigan = Home
Hull, London, Warrington = Away

I'm guessing we'll get Cas at Magic

We should play the teams finishing in even postions (2,4,6,8,10,12) in the loop fixtures, but Cas (4th)have been replaced by Wigan (1st)

Not bad distribution of fixtures with a lot more more home games on Sundays (so far)

Thursday = 4: 2 home (Catalans & Warrington) 2 away (including Easter at Cas + Wigan)
Friday = 7: 2 home 5 away
Saturday = 4: 2 home 2 away
Sunday = 12: 7 home 5 away
Monday = 1: Leeds Home - Easter Monday
+ Magic?

Quirks:
We play 4 home games in a row, rounds 7-10
We play Leeds at home in consecutive home games (Round 12 22nd April then a big gap to Round 17 9th June)
No home league games in May.
We play London and Hull away twice before we play them at home.

Generally a good set of fixtures which should allow for some increased support.

Bring it on.

I might have imagined this, but didn't I read that we play Catalans at magic as it is 5th vs 7th?

Re: 2019 Fixtures : Thu Nov 08, 2018 4:45 am  

And didn't Cas finish 3rd and Saints 1st?

Ranked after GF: Wigan > Warrington > Saints > Cas

Prize money split like this too.

In the end Cas only finished one place above us

Could be. That would give Magic fixtures as:

Wigan St Helens
Warrington Castleford
Wakefield Catalans
Huddersfield Hull FC
Salford Hull KR
Leeds London

Seems a fairer system.

Catalans away is nicely placed in July. Could make a very enjoyable long weekend of that one.

Heard we've got saints at magic. Pity as I miss the Derby games at magic
