Sun 26 Sept: Workington Town v Keighley Cougars KO 14:00 (ouRLeague)

[Hopping Mad]

Keighley try off the final play (well, almost). 16-14. Kick to come.

[Hopping Mad]

16-16. Oh, I say.

Golden point extra time coming up.

[Whippet13]

Kicked it, dramatic end.

[Whippet13]

Full time, golden point coming up.

[JonM]

Cracking game.

Workington must be the most fragile team in rugby league. Never seen so many players going down injured on the sixth tackle or a drop out - must've happened 10+ times in that second half. They've defended brilliantly though.

[Jeff Stein]

Do Our League always use someone from one of the teams as their analyst? This guy makes the coverage totally amateurish

[JonM]

Great response from Town though with the short kick-off and then a penalty.

[Hopping Mad]

You've got to feel for the Keighley player who conceded the penalty. "The poor lad..."

18-16 to Workington

Entertaining game. Not the greatest quality, but the weather conditions were a factor.

 

[Barley Mow]

That was an enjoyable watch - Always good to have an exciting finish. Well done Workington.

Sun comes out as the players leave the field. Typical!

I suppose Working is a long way to travel. Radio do it quite often.

[Scubby]

Strong end to the season for Keighley - just coming up short in this one.

Could do without hearing the commentator either. Seems some in RL are Teflon, and he's one of them.

[yanto]

Gotta love some of the comments.

Come on guys it's play off time..

Give it all or walk away..

Both clubs have done great..one has to go to another game at this stage.

Maybe Keighley  will come back to Derwent Park for the final. 

But FFS..league one is entertaining. 

[yanto]

Sorry For us abroad "our league " is a god send.

[DavidM]

We never make it easy ! First half was very good but we managed the second half poorly , inviting pressure . Luckily our defence was very strong and we handled what they threw at us  . Kicks are a bit of a lottery but got there in the end . Must manage game better though

Seems the most likely outcome.

One of those guys who pronounces his Ts as Ds. Sooooo irritating. Usually the territory of commercial radio DJs.

Rather classier act calling the game at Colwyn Bay. Wondered what had happened to George Riley after his BBC, erm, departure.

[Derwent]

In playoff games the result is all that matters and we ground it out. Wasn’t pretty in the second half but who cares ?

[yanto]

Donny  at home 

How bad are NWC tonight

[doc]

Enjoyed the jeopardy at the end. Sure Keighley will fancy their chances against leaky Donny.

Different side without the loan players it seems, be interesting to see the donny v cougars game now.

[Exiled Townie]

I thoroughly enjoyed that, a very exciting and enjoyable game ..... and the wife only had to tell me twice to stop shouting at the screen. Well done Town, and a big well done to Keighley too.
