Widnes might look a different team when Brown hits form again

Thing with Brown is that he did the same last season, played well at the beginning, got injured and the team dipped and when he came back they never recovered. They were lucky not to be in £1m game even with Brown.

If you can get some players back and keep them I can see you scraping out of the bottom 4 however, it will also depend on Salfords 6 point appeal.

If your in the mid 8's, can't see 7 out of 7 this year but I also can't see a SL dropping down

No superleague club will get relegated
The championship clubs will start moaning and will want 1 up 1 down back after this season. Even more so once Toronto come in

If it was a longer mini-league (e.g. Home and away games against everybody) and there was no one-off million pound game, I think the SL teams would be on pretty solid ground. But as it is, it only takes the odd surprise result to shake things up. Which, tbf, is how it should be - the SL teams have enough of an advantage.

While we're struggling, Rovers are not the worst team in SL history - we're not even the worst so far this season. And we got beaten by Oldham, at home. Really can't afford to be complacent.

What has happened to the top coach you have lined up for next year, is this dependent on what league your playing in

Bound to be. I'd expect an announcement based on an assumption of SL survival before its secured though.

Always very funny to reply to potentially outraged trolls with the last answer they want to hear, the one they wanted to tell us in their next post.

Can't see any Championship club troubling the Super League teams. The disparity in the respective salary caps will always maintain the status quo, which is the weakness in the system.
Rovers will have far too much for anything a championship side could throw at them, especially if you keep your half backs on the field.

In the same way we had far too much for Oldham?
