Big game today in Suntelens bid for a treble.

Seen us serve up some real garbage at Magic, hoping for better today but who knows.

I could live with forfeiting a home game every other year to the Magic fixture. I really do think the constant tinkering with rules, structures, world cup events etc. does nothing for the credibility of the sport.

I agree. Hull could miss out on the playoffs to KR when Hull played Leeds at Magic and KR got an easy gimme against Leigh. Now obviously it doesnt come down to 1 game its over a season but it totally distorts it and opens the sport up to conspiracy theories.

Imagine Man City and Chelsea going neck and neck for title and Premier League throwing in an extra fixture 3 week before end of the season. Man City get Watford and Chelsea get Liverpool. Its a sham.

Aren't the loop fixtures based on the previous season's table?

HKR came bottom last year. that worked well

I dont mind the drama of golden point but do think it is unfair on the eventual losing team to come away with nothing
There are solutions to this though. You could make the full time result 0.5pt each and 1pt extra to the GP winner or make it 3pts a win in ordinary time, GP 1 to the loser and 2 to the winner
that 1/2 point could make a difference in the end of year table
