This is the last round as I see it.

[uSheffield vs Barrow[/u

This is a tough one to call, as Sheffield will still have eyes on 2nd Place if Halifax slip up and its only a 3 day turn around and a long journey for Barrow, so Sheffield 36 Barrow 10

[uHalifax vs Toulouse[/u

This is only one way, Halifax to win the margin being what we need if Sheffield win.

[uDoncaster vs Gateshead[/u

Only one winner here, and Gateshead will be safe

[uFeatherstone vs Batley[/u

Featherstone will want to maintain a winning streak but cannot get any higher, and batley need to win to stay safe.

Featherstone 26 Batley 36

[uLeigh vs Whitehaven[/u

By the time this game is played whitehaven will know if we have finished top or second, therefore they will either be going for 2nd themselves or nothing to play for. Leigh on the other hand will be playing for survival in this league, so I will go for Leigh 30 Whitehaven 24


Tough end to the season for all teams.

i cant see Sheffeild winning by a 26 point margin but i think Sheffeild will win by 16 points.

i agree with all the others though.

come on fax, the crowd should be massive on saturday if we have a chance to win the league.

I can but be optomistic...

ok i have my optomistic face on now

As Fax are a point clear in second place any win will do.

However to finish top and as Fax are three points behind Barrow and assuming that Barrow lose to Sheffield and miss out on a bonus point, Fax will need to overturn a 56 point advantage which Barrow currently hold. Quite possible. However, I fear that Barrow will pick up at least one point to claim that home game in the playoffs.

2 interesting points (well, points of some degree, may not be that intesting

)
but if your prediction does happen, Toulose tecnically would be relegated but of course cant so 3rd bottom would have to go down.

Also, at this moment only 4-5 wins between 1st an a relegation spot, which i.m.o shows how close this league is.

I think barrow will grind for a bonus point, hope im wrong!

I think all of the games should be played simultaneously on the final week of league matches, otherwise it's open to all sorts of shennanigans.

I agree, we can't have our whiter than white sport ruined by underhand and unfair actions!

We would be the laughing stock of the sporting world.

...oh, hang on a minute.....!
