Yes, but I'm old school, so Grand Final is not the main prize.
No problem with having some kind of playoff to keep the interest going to the very end of the season, but far as I'm concerned Saints are League Champions this year.
Grand final winners
Re: Grand final winners
The team who finish top after playing everyone else home and away have been the best team of the season & deserve to be seen as champions. The playoffs, whatever format they take (and they are changing yet again next year) are a glorified knock out competition where luck plays a much greater part in the result. That doesn't mean that I don't want us to win the CC or GF but I think the LLS should be more highly prized than it is.Askham Tiger wrote:I'm not trolling, but this time last year quite a lot of us wanted to see the team who finished top crowned champions outright, and do away with playoffs and the Grand Final. I said at the time it's ok thinking that way when we finish top, but it's a bit different when we don't.
Hand on heart, would anyone be happy to see St Helens crowned as champions with the remaining teams having nothing else to play for as they can't overtake St Helens....despite the fact our friends over Merseyside way are looking a little bit more unbeatable of late.
