@John Drake surely should still be pinned with 2 games still to play?

I hope you’re right but I’m still predicting that Toulouse will stroll the league with several games to spare, a record breaking points difference and two league wins over Fev and then still lose to them in the playoff final.

If you're predicting that Toulouse will gain two league wins over Fev you should get a bet on Widnes for the 1895 Cup as the only way Fev's game against Toulouse will be replayed now is if Fev lose that semi final.

Not that points difference is of any relevance, of course.

I'd just finished a 12 hour shift in the office sub-editing on League Express, uploading content to the website and publishing the digital edition.

I could barely see straight by the end of it.

Careful, the RFL will be recruiting you as a ref

Quite a simple explanation really. With the Bulls game being moved to another date, there isn't anything of interest in the Championship tonight

Featherstone just need to beat Oldham by 154 points to 0 to go top of the league on points % difference tonight, but with the score only 24-0 after 20 minutes they're some way off target so far...

[The Phantom Horseman]

Half time Featherstone 40 Oldham 0.

Toulouse: We've scored 66 unanswered points this weekend. Nobody will top that.

Fev: Hold my beer....

Normally, I leave a game that was a 68-0 blow out a bit flat. But these aren't normal times. It's been 441 days since I last watched fev. Tonight, sat with mates, talking sheeite and watching the greatest game..... well.... it was just banging.

I loved every single second of it. Just loved it.

Time to put the kettle on

No H. Strongest thing I've had today is a large pot of Assam tea when I got home.

It's been a good day H. A really good day.  I'm a happy fat ginger bloke!!
