I'm confused. I thought 23 games were played in Superleague. Playing each team twice and then magic weekend. How come there are more games this year and how have the fixtures been decided, ie who plays who.....Does anyone know?
Ask me an easy one such as the location of the holy grail. I’ll give it a go. Each team (12) plays each other home and away, that’s 22. Then magic weekend, that’s 23. Then each team has 6 “loop” fixtures, ie randomly selected games against teams they have no hope of beating, usually away from home, making the regular quota of 29 games. Don’t ask why but I think it’s probably got to do with Sky.
For example Cas and Leeds play each other 15 times a season. Cas win 13 times and Leeds win 27. Then the video ref overrules 18 of those games saying the ball went into touch and declares no try after 12 minutes of viewing replays from 85 different camera angles plus the satellite feed from the space station. Occasionally they ask the Russians to use their secret satellites to view offsides , which obviously Putin is happy to oblige.
It all makes sense to the rl bosses obviously.
By the way the holy grail is in my dishwasher as we speak.
