Should We Have The Play Offs In July/August? : Mon Mar 23, 2009 2:09 pm  

I don’t know how we’d structure this but this is an idea I have in my mind.

The super league weekly rounds come to a standstill midseason to make way for the play offs system. The bottom six get a mid season break whilst the top eight battle it out in the play offs like we do. Once the plays offs have finished its back to the weekly rounds and a race to the top spot.

I think this will make the play offs better as it’ll be played in sunshine and the top spot respectable once again.

What do you think?

I think you're stark staring bonkers.

I think we should finish of the weekly rounds and then start the play-offs....just feel that's slightly more logical than your suggestion....but hey..what do I know?

The current play offs decide the league champions. What do yours do??

I'm not sure I don't like the top 8 format anyway, if it were me I would have the top 3, 1st straight into the final 2nd and 3rd to play off.
Perhaps you could have another competion playoff for 4th to 8th places.

Its getting farcical now league games are becoming just friendlies now with a mad rush to jockey for positions at the end.

There's no such thing as the play-off champions.

They decide the league champions. Who were SL champions last year? Who got the play the NRL champions in the World Club Challenge? Right. The winners of the Grand Final. That fact that some of our denser posters have problems with the tradional way of deciding the champions is their problem, not one for the rest of us.



But yes – we should definitely hold the play-offs before we know who's qualified for them.

In fact why stop there? Let's have the Cup Final in May , then hold the quarter finals and semi finals afterwards

Has Damo been banned from the sin bin or has he just decided to infest the whole of this messageboard with his useless threads?
