Club world championship thing : Sat Sep 13, 2014 8:31 pm  

Another thing I seem to have missed is the fact that as league leaders we're now guaranteed a place in next years Club World Championship.

Interesting. Quite frightening given the nature of this side we have but good to be involved in.


How does it work?

Champions vs champions, the rest seems a bit of a luck of the draw against souths or Brisbane (assuming neither teams win the NRL)

Would love for us to play against Broncos. The hail of 2002 is forever imprinted on my mind

It's going to chance how teams approach the LLS in future years.

South Sydney are the team we want to be playing at Langtree Park.

Can't wait to see one of these great sides at LP. Should get a great turn out

So what happens then? We just have one friendly against an NRL side? Or is there a competition to it?

There's games on the Friday, sat and Sunday.

Other than that, no other details about prizes etc have been announced I don't think

What happens if we make the final after finishing top? Who gets in next?

I don't understand this concept can anyone explain ?

The main event will be the two grand final winners playing each other I think and that will be on the Sunday.

The other two games are between the team that loses the grand final and also the highest ranked team in the league obviously not including the grand finalists.

If we make the final, the league based spot goes to the the second highest team, Wigan. If it's a saints wigan final, it goes to the third placed team, Huddersfield.

Either way, were going to be involved, which is exciting in itself imo.
