RIGGY Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 This article written by Matthew Shaw of Total RL and can be seen on the main Forum. Nice comments about the Lions. Full item on main forum We’re three months into the Rugby League season. Let that just sink in for a minute. It doesn’t seem a week since Warrington defeated Leeds at Headingley, and of course, things have gone a lot differently than we expected since then. Finally, both the Super League and Championship tables are beginning to take a little bit of shape as clubs start to discover exactly where they are at. April was a big month for many teams, for reasons both bad and good, and here are the clubs that felt the best, or the worst, of the month. Winners Swinton Lions On March 27th, Swinton were rock bottom of the Championship without a win to their name. Go forward just a month, and the Lions are eighth and just four points behind the top four! It’s been an exceptional year for the Championship side, who are on a five game winning streak in the league. The run actually started in March as they defeated Oldham, but following a further win over Workington, they produced exceptional victories over Halifax and Batley to charge up the league. Head coach John Duffy then signed a new long-term deal with the club that was celebrated in style as Swinton defeated Whitehaven on Sunday.
