Some great match ups again this week...but Workington v North Wales Crusaders is the pick of the bunch.

1st v 3rd....could be another edge of the seat game....tow teams on winning streaks. I hope its a cracking game....and Crusaders edge the win!

Some very close games this week and you could make a case for either team.

For me the big game though is at Workington. Will the Crusaders run of form continue against the league leaders. I certainly hope so. I’ll go for all away wins.

It would be great to see Town v Crusaders on Our League.

Coventry need to be on their guard. Wsst Wales have had 2 very creditable performances in the last fortnight. They must be desperate for a win.

After booking the last two Sundays off, I will have to go to work this weekend, so  missing the trip to Workington. So good luck to the Cru, and agree with previous posts, the game should be on our league.

I'm not really one for predicting results, but I can predict another very interesting and entertaining weekend in League 1.

Come to think of it, we have a very exciting and open 10 club league, so how about swapping places with Super League for the ultimate restructure......

Skolars 

Fancy WW for this

Barrow

Hunslet

NWC

[Derwent Park SC]

Keighley 

Cov 

Hoping for a Donny win but can’t see it

Rochdale 

Workington

[Hopping Mad]

Heading off to Spotland (sorry, Crown Oil Arena), as a neutral, for Rochdale-Hunslet. Not bothered who wins. Hoping it's as close as the league table suggests (the 22-28 prediction above would do very nicely).

First game this season I'll have seen in any of the top three tiers. To think how many I used to watch!

Your are in for a treat today. Rochdale are getting back to full complement with Rangi Chase, Fu-Fui Momoi,  Penky, Gavin Bennion and star young half back Rob Fairclough back in the squad. Should be fireworks !

Cov. (Need win to stay in good play off contention?)

Too many fancying a Hunslet win v Rochdale, don’t like it, makes me nervous

[FearNothing]

[FearNothing]
