Yes.

even though the consensus of opinion is it's in toronto no matter what  according  to THE RFL WEB SITE

it says

Championship Play-Off Final: Winner of 2nd Semi-Final  game D toronto v toulouse (home) v Winner of Preliminary Final (away)

it doesn't say

Championship Play-Off Final: highest ranked finalist( home)  v who's left (away)

so it looks like phil has seen the same info

Understood. The graphic is incorrect and has led to much confusion. RFL confirmed some weeks ago that the Championship winner (Wolfpack) has home field advantage throughout the playoffs, whether they are the winner of Game D or Game E. Apparently this was decided at the start of the season and hasn't changed.

Doesn't matter though.  Cuz they'll win

They should play the midweek team instead.
