RugbyPowelly Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Outside looking in I’d also say 14th tbf. I’ll keep the faith though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind side johnny Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 So, having seen some of the Championship teams in action on TV and judging by results and recruitment, how will the table pan out this season? Promotion by winning the Final won't be on offer this year but pride will drive some teams on. Relegation still hasn't finally been clarified but it looks like the status quo will apply with any changes taking place following the 2025 season so we should assume that the bottom two will go down. DR or loans might play a part again this year but with increased time our for HIA cases SL clubs will be wanting plenty of back up so maybe not so many players will be available as some clubs hope. I will stick my neck out and predict: 1. Wakefield 2. Toulouse 3. Bradford 4. Featherstone 5. Sheffield 6. Halifax 7. Batley 8. York 9. Barrow 10. Widnes 11. Swinton 12. Doncaster 13. Dewsbury 14.

Indigogo Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) I'd be shocked if York are 8th. I do agree that it'll be very close from 4th down to 8th/9th and in season recruitment/injuries/duel reg will play a big part.

Hugh Jarce Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I think some clubs might not make it to the finish line financially, there is a long way to go, and they are spending quite considerable amounts on wages. People can say what they want about Mark, but he has kept the club afloat and put his hand in his pocket when needed. Not sure some of the other club owners will do the same. This season is going to be difficult for a lot of clubs including ours. 3 "Life's tough.......It's even tougher if you're stupid." - John Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Flatter Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 For what it’s worth, her is my prediction: 1 Wakefield 2 Toulouse 3 Sheffield 4 Featherstone 5 Bradford 6 York 7 Halifax 8 Batley 9 Swinton 10 Widnes 11 Doncaster 12 Barrow 13 Dewsbury 14 Whitehaven Legs, Dews, Legs.
