Batley, Leeds, Hull KR and Featherstone are London's home game with the Leeds game scheduled for Sky on 20th. I wonder if it will be played at 3pm as the London WEB site says or moved to a different (later) time on orders from Sky.

You are probably right but it seems a bit of an odd time to me.

Looks like most of the Middle 8 games are at 3. Evenings for the TV matches in the Super 8s, afternoons for Middle 8s

What an absolutely superb game of rugby league that was. As a red and white I have to say well done to Hull FC who were fabulous tonight. Best side won.




They won't win at Wembley though....................never do

Very good game with lots of good defensive work (apart from for the 2nd Hull try..)

Didn't seem to be many Wigan fans at all which was surprising.

I know its Lancashire as opposed to Yorkshire but not that far to travel is it?

Problem is a Friday night M62 road works galore can take 2 or 3 hours to get there , the other thing is the crowds have been dwindling in the cup for a while now , just over 10,000 last night and todays will be around same not sold out could go if I wanted , the cup isn't get the crowds it lasts too long between rounds waiting 4 or 5 weeks is too long needs to be more compact also the early rounds the amateurs are starting to withdraw as instead of a nice payday they are making a huge loss Lock lane went all the way to Oxford and the official crowd was 66 .

Hull FC just didn't turn up until it was too late. Semi final celebration hangover?

Seems to have being doesn't it ? How often do we see a side win a huge game like a semi or final and lose a league game they should win the week after ? Fair play to Cas though, played well tonight

Wrong team in middle 8's Salford losing 6 points doesn't help the championship teams , I would fancy our chances against Wakefield rather than Salford at the moment

what happened there ? Cruising 34-8 up with 10 minutes to go we lose Worthington and they lose Soward to a punch up and we are hanging on 34-30 at the end , not good but at least it's a win , need to improve 10 fold next week

Leeds v Featherstone men against boys .

True, but as a Leeds fan it was a fun day out after a mostly awful season. I was very impressed by how well they've done up the ground since we were last there. The stand they bought from Scarboro' was a cracking bit of business.

The train station at Featherstone didn't exist the last time we played them. It's very handy. Even closer than Warrington's ground is to their station. Meant we could meet up at a favourite bar in Wakefield, that's close to Kirkgate Station, then do the short journey to Fev.

Yes I thought you would probably beat us but the way Broncos came back at you another few minutes and we might have snatched a win.

Bit worrying how easy Leeds beat Fev. They collapsed in the second half. Hope we can do better when we play Leeds in two weeks time.

If no side gets promoted then what?

That will be 2 years with no change in Superleague. Back to a franchise system?

No at the moment it would knacker Wakefield and Castleford

SL back up to 14 with Toronto and Tolouse in it , will happen within 3 years

Huddersfield might struggle more than they thought when this is heard by the disciplinary bods:

Grade C 2-3 games complete joke

Worthington from leigh same Soward attacks him and starts punching him gets a grade A complete farce

I think your right. As long as Toronto gets crowds and the team is strong next year I think the plan is to get them into SL. Another French side will be great as well.
