It's on the RFL blurb for the event.

[DEANO]

That would make it even more of a pointless exercise 

[spanishknight]

We've already played Newcastle twice at home this season lol

I wonder who is going to concede the most points on Saturday. Us or Fev ?

Half of them are designated the home teams. They get the home dressing room, they provide the doctor, amongst other things.

Those are very good points. Perhaps you should have raised these in your initial post?

I didn't think they needed explaining, Dave.

Evidently they did, judging by the replies!

I'm sure I read that the bash was due to be on freesports this weekend as well as premier but their schedule shows no sign,am I imagining that it was part of the original tv deal

Luckily, I'm always happy to educate.

Squads named for the Leigh Fev game. Fev's injury list has grown again and the 21-man squad is missing Kheirallah, Kopczak, Jacks, Bussey, Pickersgill, Cuthbertson and Davies. Meanwhile Leigh, who are still missing Tom Amone, have named Lachlan Lam and he could make his debut. Not often that Fev have gone into a game as massive underdogs in recent years but that will certainly be the case on Saturday.

Looking forward to watching the games and hoping there are decent crowds - which looks likely on Saturday, but probably less so on Sunday.

Just bought my ticket for Sunday, I'll probably only go to the York match due to other commitments and no real interest in the other games - £40. 

And the RFL will wonder why there's hardly anyone there.

£40?  Are you sitting in a gold seat with an army of servants?

I've only paid a tenner for all day saturday.

Got my Saturday pass free with my Dewsbury season ticket. An extra tenner would have got me a reserved seat.

They obviously see these posh lot from York coming.

That'll be why some folk are so desperate to see York in Superleague, Johnny.

[Piggy's mate]

All good matches apart from Bradford who will get hammered, oh and Fev of course

[David Shepherd]

Getting a bit giddy now. First Bash in ages and it's not in that dump Blackpool.

Hope Leigh fans aren't put off by the train strikes
