Slightly unfair that Leigh have three away games, and Fev all home

Is anyone making the trek, or is it just locals and those from Batley and Widnes making a weekend of it?

With all this rain I would think the pitches will be a quagmire by the third games....so much for summer rugby

There's a wedding booked at the rugby club on the same day. That'll be a right laugh will that. How amateurish can you get, the only facility this "ground" has is the bar and it's going to be over-run with wedding guests. You couldn't make it up.

sounds like its being organised as good (bad) as last years event

Yes, a couple of us heading over. Twas a good weekend last year, but the weather helped a lot. If it rains tomorrow, it'll be a disaster.

And if there is a double booking on the club-house, someone at Fylde wants pulling thru' with a pineapple.

Well I hope the bride and groom are into RL, otherwise they must be nuts having their reception there - to be hoped they were warned and it's come cheap - plus it's going to be fun for the fans if the club house is out of bounds - what a farce

Only ever been once with BD92 ( thanks George) and really enjoyed it - hope you have a great weekend whatever the weather

Halifax are through after beating both Doncaster and London 24-20 and 36-10 respectively.

Sheffield are through after beating Oldham 40-0 and Featherstone 24-12 and Barrow respectively.

Barrow are now out after drawing with Oldham 14-14 and then going down to Featherstone 4-14, so they must beat Sheffield in the last game to go through, but didn't.

Hunslet are also through after beating Blackpool 20-6 and London 14-10 and Doncaster 24-16.

At a guess Halifax will feature as will Hunslet but my friend who is at the event hasn't text me the Leigh scores so we don't know how they have got on.

[Tommy The C5t]

Swinton I'm hearing have won all there games, beating Rochdale, Gateshead and Dewsbury, so it's all down to points for and against as to which of the remaining sides will join Sheffield and take up the three semi-final spots.

Can I just say a big well done to Swinton and Keighley on a 100% record so far, but at the same time Hunslet who also had a 100% just didn't make the final cut as both Keighley and Swinton had superior points for/against.

[Tommy The C5t]

Sheffield Eagles 12-8 Keighley Cougars after 20:00 minutes.

Sheffield Eagles 20-14 Keighley Cougars

We have a Golden point semi-final between Halifax and Swinton for the right to play Sheffield.

My friend up there on the coast says "he's never been this nervous in years"

Halifax RLFC 12-12 Swinton after 22:00 minutes.

Come on you LIONS!!!

[Tommy The C5t]

Result

Halifax RLFC 18-14 Swinton

Halifax win in Golden Point extra-time and will now face Sheffield in the final in around 30 minutes time.

Credit must go to Swinton for pushing the Championship side so close.
