Rob Nash Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Coventry. Close could go either way. Workington. Home advantage to give Town the edge. Doncaster. Back at Keepmoat and we owe them one. North Wales. Crusaders win but not by a landslide. Keighley. The better side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clwydianrange Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Some good games there and all will be close, I’m going all home wins. Really looking forward to the Welsh derby as with Raiders recent improvement it should be a great game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Ringo Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Wins for Coventry, Donny, N Wales and Rochdale. Too hard to say for the Cumbria Derby until the squads are announced. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronicler of Chiswick Posted July 28 Report Share Posted July 28 Coventry the only away winners. What's irritating me is that due to a family reunion I can't get to the Cru's game!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Ringo Posted July 29 Report Share Posted July 29 Just read COVID has hit the Cumbria Derby game, this beastly virus is wrecking the sport after almost 2 seasons, will we be ever rid of it? Mass vaccination hasn't stopped sporting COVID protocols. Players welfare is and should always be paramount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the man Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 Teams can still compete in the play-offs if they don't meet the minimum number of games but they are assumed to have lost the games to make up the number. Taking an extreme example if one team was W9 L9, whilst another was W12 L0 the second team would still finish above the first team even though they hadn't played the minimum number of games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking an extreme example if one team was W9 L9, whilst another was W12 L0 the second team would still finish above the first team even though they hadn't played the minimum number of games I’m not doubting you but I’m somewhat confused . How can you assume that a team has lost a game they haven’t played , maybe through no fault of their own ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Nash Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 Planning week to week has become impossible. We were hit by covid last week. We tried to plan by having a larger than usual squad. We've pieced together a team this week by loaning a few players from Sheffield. Not ideal but I'd rather see the game go ahead. It's giving Hunslet a huge advantage but what's the alternative?

Team A 9/18 50% Team B 12/12 would be 100% but the minimum number of games is 13 so they become 12/13 or 92% It wouldn't be fair on Team B not to make the play-offs just because they hadn't played the minimum number of games How I have described is how it works 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonard Posted July 31 Report Share Posted July 31 (edited) I went through Eventbrite from Skolars website and it said sales had ceased. Shambles. Bought a ticket for next week. Edited July 31 by Leonard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
