Warrington= World Club Challenge series

It's not a round robin tournament. It's Saints v Souths for the trophy. The Warrington & Wigan games are just 'friendlies'

Just goes to show how out of touch I am with this series

Souths to win then.

As far as I understand it, the top four of the middle 8 go up, so anywhere between 0 and 4 clubs can be promoted.

Yep. The middle 8 start again on 0 points so it's all dependent on those 7 games. You could have none promoted, you could have 4. Highly unlikely, but possible.

After the end of the middle 8's the top 3 go straight to SL for 2016 and the 4th v 5th play off for one one remaining place in SL

So in 'theory' if the 4 teams dropping down from SL into the middle 8's had mares against the likes of Leigh, Bradford, London and say Fev then it is possible for all the teams finishing in the top 4 of the Championship to get promoted to SL for 2016, although obviously unlikely given difference in funding, playing squad etc but it is 'possible' for more than 1 championship club to be in SL in 2016
