Actually, the extra home fixtures don't all go to the SL sides. The ranking goes like this:

1: SL 9th
2: SL 10th
3: CH 1st
4: CH 2nd
5: SL 11th
6: SL 12th
7: CH 3rd
8: CH 4th

Clubs ranked 1-4 get 4 home games, those ranked 5-8 only get 3.

How many games do they play when in the middle 8 ?

Yes. It's just a straight 80 minute shoot out to see who goes into Super League and who goes into Championship for 2016.

So bottom 4 in SL and top 4 in Championship join together to form middle 8. All points return to 0.

Everyone plays each other once. After 7 matches, the top 3 win a place in SL for 2016 and the bottom 3 are in the Championship.

4th v 5th play each other to decide the final spot in both leagues.

Points are carried over from the regular season and all teams play each other once. Top 4 get 4 home games and 5-8 get 3 home games (7 games in total).

At the end of the extra 7 games 1st plays 4th and 2nd play 3rd for a place in the grand final.

I was only messing. I know how the top 8 works. It was just the middle 8 I didn't know.

Is it possible to trade your top 4 season ticket for a bottom 8 one? IMO the middle 8 is going to be the 'Game of Thrones 8', there will be bodies everywhere. Going to be some mighty games there.
