16th/17th Sept : The Kingstone Press League 1 Super 8s Match Thread

[absentee thoughtlord]

Milloudi looks like a handy player! Good signing by Hull, and hopefully he gets a slot in the France World Cup squad.

[Scubby]

Doncaster 8 points up at half time. Have the Wolfpack been on the sauce all week? Forty minutes from history for the Dons they are playing well.

[Spidey]

Still 12-4 at HT to Donny

Toronto going close twice in closing minutes but got tackled dead (softly I thought) and came up with double movement 

[Bearman]

Best team winning.

I still think Toronto will win though.

[Futtocks]

Blake Wallace gets the first try of the second half.

[Futtocks]

Doncaster take the 2 on a penalty - Toronto 10:14 Doncaster.

[Futtocks]

Pownall gets his second try. Unconverted, so we are level on 14 all.

[Futtocks]

Hat-trick for Pownall.

[Futtocks]

Liam Kay makes it 24:14.

[Bearman]

I am really impressed by the referee. One of the best I have seen this season.

Donny giving Toronto a game. 12-4 up on 31mins

Excellent performance by Donny tonight

[Odsal Outlaw]

I liked the half time stat that showed TW as the 8th best supported team in the RFL in 2017.  Social media suggests 8.5k there tonight as well which is biggest yet.

[Futtocks]

Full Time 26:14

Liam Kay finishes as the club's top try-scorer for the season.

I am sure they have eyes on government grants for renovations and things like that if they are to stay at Lamport. Nice to be known in high offices.

What a game tomorrow. If Thunder stole 5th place it would be pretty amazing given how they started the 8s.
