I was for a Barrow win but listening to the radio commentary Batley were just too strong, particularly in the forwards where Barrow were missing a few players.

So much for my prediction but happy to be proved wrong. Congratulations to Batley.

I agree with Mick TL's comments above re Barrow. They have had a tremendous season and it looks from their recently announced signings,re-signings and rumoured signings that they will be a force in this division again. next season.

Roll on Batley who look like they will be making a return trip to the LSV next week. - having said that, York have just scored a try and are back in the game at 10-6 to Fax!

Safari, so goody. 'Fax 22-12 York.

It’s looking like a Fax win , I think York have been unlucky things and decisions gone against them , I can’t see Fax beating Fev , not playing like this , and I think we will be to strong for the Bullfrogs .

One score in it, Chazzer!

All square!

Kick missed. 27 mins to go. Wow!

'Fax penalty. Taking the two. Converted!

Two back for York. Square again.

50 meter pen for York ahead. 9 mins to go.

24-26 to York. 10 minutes left. What a game

Halifax Pen. 3 mins to go. Missed!

B00gah Bongser - he's exhausted!

We host York next week! Fev host Bulldogs.

Batley will give Fev every bit of biff and muscle they have.
We must be professional and at our best to make sure we don’t get into an arm wrestle with York.
Well done Batley and York.
Glad I didn’t make any predictions !

Bloomin' heck. Did not see that one coming. Well played York!

Who would make predictions on RL games.

Glad I didn't put a bet on my predictions lol.

...aaand therein lies the rub!

Super League Play-offs:

Sixth placed Salford won away from home against third placed Huddersfield.
Fifth placed Leeds won away at fourth placed Catalans and then at second placed Wigan.
Sixth placed (iteration deliberate) Salford then frightened the living daylights out of Top o't'Shop Saints on the latters' midden.

It would be a miscarriage of justice were Saints not to lift the trophy next weekend, IBHO!

Championship Play-Offs:

Sixth placed York (who shipped 100 points in a game last month) won away at third placed 'Fax and now stand two wins away from Super League!


Fifth placed Batley won away at fourth placed Barrow.

After 25 Championship wins on the bounce, it would be a miscarriage of justice were Leigh not to gain promotion to Super League in early October, IBHO!

SkY would argue that the format has produced upsets and a lot of excitement (and we did indeed witness two great battles today - with upsets) but SkY WOULD argue that!!

La Jeunesse Madame de Bongseur (not a Rugby League fan though she is constantly bombarded with info) commented last night that it was a ridiculous system.

If IMG want to spread the gospel they need to cut out all the crap that is ridiculed by the non believers.

When Leigh last won the old First Division there was rejoicing aplenty in the six vills.

Thereafter came this bauble knock out comp called The Premiership. No one gave an es aitch one tee about it. Leigh hosted Wire for a (rare) 1-1 draw and then were tonked at Wilderspool. Nobody gave a monkey's!

Then Maurice and his mates got involved!

Leyth v York next Sunday, happy Days.

Will do

Wow wasn’t expecting those results. I certainly won’t be trying to predict the next round. We cannot be complacent, just because we put 100 on them last time, I don’t think that will happen again. I didnt see any games over here, but I hope they show next round or certainly the final. Roosters beat Rabbitohs in there final league game easily, however the Rabbitohs reversed the result in the play offs. Let’s prepare well and hopefully Fev and Batley have a slugfest and extra time.

Not thinking it’ll be anything like the last match but still expecting a win. York looked good today.

Bongser's thanks, EVVO, to both you and your nephew (was it?) for setting up the predictor, it's been enjoyable.

Thanks to our team's long winning run, Bongser's self-imposition of the old Rule O (he must go for Leigh to win) has served him well this season. Generally the only weeks that he hasn't picked up points for correct winner have been when he's absent mindedly forgotten to enter. Correct (or close margins) however have been far more difficult with the cricket scores Leigh have posted and the several ducks suffered by opposition teams.
