    Leeds Rhinos v Celtic Crusaders

    No news on it yet, think it'll be late march or april before they announce the line up, can't wait..love Edinburgh...brilliant location for the weekend and I hope the locals get on board and turn out for a taste of top quality League.

    What are they going to call Magic weekend now it's not in the Millenium stadium? Will it just be Murrayfield Magic?

    Super League have announced a new play-off system for next season, which is 'ahem' interesting to say the least....

    I thought the old system was a bit too complicated, have to see this one in practise before I judge it tbh.

    The week three scenario where the highest placed team get to pick who they play is interesting, don't think I've ever come across a scenario like hat before in a play-off system. Should be an interesting year for the SL.
