eddie on sky said last night that catalan would be making the trip to east yorkshire

It's pretty comical really. I think it's a great system. Two teams will be waiting with baited breath and when Leeds choose it will be a "Doh!!!" from one of them. Hopefully not us.

I will be happy for Rovers to be in the position to be chosen.

Personally , I think the choosing the opposition is taking the tinkering a bit too far.

You might be right, but other than that I think it's a fair format. I'd probably have a different perspective if we were one of the top 2 teams.

leeds will just pick the lowest placed team left in the comp. Do you really think they'll send you to KR so you'll beat saints for them and they'll have it easier in the final?

It'll be interesting to find out when the decision is made and by whom.

Is the the club chairman or the coach and will it be done live on Sky?

Apparrently at the beginning of the season a number of club officials made it clear to some people in the media that given the choice they would simply chose the lowest placed team on principle.

I would imagine that the decision will be live on Sky so that they are first with the news , which is fair enough I suppose as they are the paymasters.

There must be some already agreed timeframe for the decision for logistical purposes etc.

its going to be live on skysportsnews, so the time will have been agreed, but i can't remember what time it will be

If it is the Sunday night slot , how long will it before Offiah manages a reference to Richie Myler.

Or

top 8 teams and 1v8 2v7 3v4 5v6
Then knock out format from there i.e qf sf then the final.
