Rugby League playoffs (as we stand) Part 2...

Just a quick update on dates for the play off games now things are looking a bit clearer. Going back to my original predictions I got it a little bit wrong with Hull finishing in second above Leeds.Anyway with one weekend gone we have, only slightly surprisingly, lost Leeds and Salford with Warrington and Bradford moving into the next eliminator.
This means that next Friday night we have Saints v Hull. As much as I would like to think we can get straight to the final (we have beaten St Helens away already this season) I rather suspect we will be playing again a week on Friday (the 6th) at the K.C. Stadium.
I expect the game between Bradford and Warrington to go down to the wire – no pun intended. I actually think Warrington might win this game. In fact I would prefer to see Bradford at the K.C. – you know what to expect from them whereas with Warrington you know nether know which team may turn up.
So still hopefully a Saints, Hull final on October 14th. We currently have 1 room booked at the Ibis, Portland Street, Manchester.
Also just a quick note to mention the U21 Grand Final will be played at the K.C. on Sunday the 1st of October against Leeds. Only train from Cranny is 1:12PM and coming back at 7PM. Straight to the game and a couple after perhaps??
