Play-offs

edit

The 2007 Super League championship was decided through a play-off system. The involved teams were set according to their final position in the league tables after all 27 regular rounds. The play-off series had no bearing on the minor premiership (otherwise known as the League Leaders' Shield).

Format

edit

Super League XII gave six places for its play-off finals. It was the sixth successive year the top-six play-off system was used. At the end of the regular season, the table was set:

  Team Pld W D L PF PA PD Pts
1   St Helens R.F.C. 27 19 0 8 783 422 +361 38
2   Leeds Rhinos 27 18 1 8 747 487 +260 37
3   Bradford Bulls 27 17 1 9 778 560 +218 33[A]
4   Hull 27 14 2 11 573 553 +20 30
5   Huddersfield Giants 27 13 1 13 638 543 +95 27
6   Wigan Warriors 27 15 1 11 621 527 +94 27[B]

A Note A: Bradford deducted 2 points for salary cap breaches
B Note B: Wigan deducted 4 points for salary cap breaches

Home field advantage was given by league position at the end of regular rounds, the lower of the two teams playing at the higher team's ground. The only exception to this rule was the Grand Final, which was held at Old Trafford following tradition. The play-off system followed the double elimination rule for the first and second placed teams, meaning whichever of the teams lost in the qualifying semi-final had to lose again in order to be knocked-out of the tournament entirely.
