"talking rubbish. look at the rules all teams play by. the team who wins the gf are the champions. shall i explain slower?"

Please do, I dont understand my own opinion..

Id rather see my team play consistenly well rather than just a few games a year. I hope we get the chance to win the grand final again this year, if we get a few injuries we will really struggle to get there...

I am a Leeds fan by the way, I was just pointing out the team who wins the league is the best team over the season

So you're saying the past few seasons where each team plays every other team twice then plays random teams home or away to make up the fixtures was a fair way of deciding top spot?

THIS season is the first time the fixtures are not like that, but even then, Murrayfield Magic lopsides it still.

The playoffs are the only fair way when a league season isn't just based on playing each team home and away

so you would like us to win all our league games and lose the grand final?

Would be a bigger acheivement than winning just one game correct?

wrong.
you play for position. the best 2 reach the grand final.
the winners, rightly or wrongly but they are the rules, are the champions.

it's that simple.

for some

Lol and playing bradford four times a year is supposed to be a disadvantage? We all know the previous schedule was a daft set up, thats the way it was. Wouldnt it be a disadvantage to Stains who had to play the 3rd placed team four times instead?

to all thoise who say that finishing top of the league is better, and that sainst didn't perform on the night, then Leeds with Leeds only finishing 1 point behind Sainst could point to the last minute kick that Burrow missed against Wigan last season, which would have given us the hub cap as well.

Ifs mean nothing, we are Champions, but got beat tonight. Live with it.

So you're openly admitting that the structure the way it was, was a disadvantage to a team. So how is that a fair way of settling league Champions??

Isnt the whole playoff setup a disadvantage to teams also? or did I miss something?
