Just been doing some maths, (I'm weird like that)

I think having run the permutations. I have been looking at the permutations for the league, mainly on what it needed to reach the playoffs.


Lowest possible score to reach playoffs:
Tigers, Bristol, & Saints all have a mathematical way of getting into the playoffs with 49 points.


Highest possible score that could miss playoffs, it is possible that 3 teams can tie on 60 points for 4th so two of Tigers, Quins & Exeter could miss out getting 60.

As games go by this window will narrow, but if these are the extremes it is likely that somewhere in the middle will be where it sits. Looking at the permutations and their liklihood, I'd guess just over halfway at 56/57 will most likely get the last Semifinal spot

3 tough home games to go, but beat Bristol and I think we've done it. Bristol is the big one for me, just by the way they are playing at the moment. Im still not convinced of our defence if we're pulled into a quick open game.

Exeter and quins we should beat at home, but Bristol at the moment are a different beast. Win all 3 and we have a chance at finishing second as Sale are away to Bristol and Gloucs.....

Oooh, its getting exciting again!!

What an enlightened idea to keep your supporters updated.

Or the opposition can prepare better knowing they don't have to waste resources preparing for the possibility of those players being available.

If their whole game plan is based on 1 or 2 opposition players they need better coaches!

I didn't say whole plan but in tight games even 1% can help

I'm getting a warm feeling about this or maybe a need for Tena's for Men. Back to back titles would be really nice to see RW on his way.
