Do we now have to beat Swinton and Haven to progress?? or could we get through by just winning one of these.
Bit confused by this pool system, is there a league table somewhere??

This is Pool 2 as it stands (I think...had to put the latest results in myself)



It's hard to work out how many more points would have you certainly to go through as working out the permiatations with who plays who not being straight forward

Hopwever I would suggest 2 wins is a certain progression for Leigh, 4 points should be enough and 3 might (and probably will) be enough

EDIT - Leigh should obviously be down as played 2 not 1

League Tables not yet updated, but I am sure you can work out the current one. Top four in each pool qualify. Haven getting tonked has helped us a bit I reckon. At some point today I am sure I will check all the remaining fixtures in our pool to work out a likely scenario. Anywhere in top 4 of the pool will do as the quarters is an open draw. The large points difference against London and the tiny points against last night may also help. All will become crystal clear after this Sunday and hopefully a win against Swinton

Remianing games for each club:

York – Batley, London

Fev – Dewsbury, Workington

Leigh – Swinton, Whitehaven

Dewsbury – Featherstone, Batley, London

Haven – Workington, Leigh

Donny – London, Swinton

Batley – York, Dewsbury

Workington – Whitehaven, Fev, Swinton

Swinton – Leigh, Doncaster, Workington

London – Doncaster, York, Dewsbury

God, I hate this competition.

OK. Here goes.

Doncaster I reckon will end up with 9 points from 4 games
York - 9 points + Batley v York (can't call it)
Haven - 6 points + Leigh v Haven
Leigh - 7 points + Leigh v Haven
Fev - 9 points + Fev v Dewsbury
Dewsbury - 6 points + Fev v Dewsbury, Dewsbury v Batley

In summary, its too close to call because of the way the fixtures have been worked out. The final make up I reckon will be decided by the results of the 4 fixtures I have listed above. I don't think even a win on Sunday will make it cut and dried.

If York beat Batley, Haven beat us, Dewsbury beat Fev or Batley then we will NOT qualify. Its simple isn't it

Equally for Widnes, Barrow away may decide whether they qualify, and they won't have it all their own away v Gateshead. If they lose that one then they will struggle to qualify.

I;d say York and Fev are through now...leaving 2 more spots realistically between Leigh, Whitehaven and Doncaster (unless one of the other teams has a major revival)

From Donny's point of view it helps that Leigh and Haven are playing each other. From Leigh's point of view I;d guess a win v Haven would be enough

Glad it's not just me then, right pain in the ass.
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.

Feasibly in Pool 2 someone who wins 3 games out of 4 may not qualify.

If York beat Batley, Dewsbury win both theirs, they will have 12 points. If Leigh beat Haven they will have 10. You could also end up with Fev on 9 or 10 and Doncaster on 9. Nightmare
