Quote ="Harry Pinner"My understanding is it's option 1 highest finishers in the league. that makes most sense as well.
Is this you trying to claim the pies wshould have home advantage based on where you think they'll finish?'"
No I've asked the same question on the Wigan board.
I still think it would be team 3 in the scenario above. Otherwise team 1 could field a weakened team in game week one hoping they get through but knowing that they would still get the home tie and pick should if they win in week 2.
