I know Keighley are on a downer at the moment but it's a mark of respect for them that some Bradford fans are taking time out from their busy lives to stick the boot in. There was a time when the gulf

I don't get this general pleasure over Cougars' demise in relation to IMG. What exactly did they do wrong? Stand up for what they believed in? Sure, things got a bit mouthy, but there were just as big

Lots to play for, but going with the above.  I do expect London to still qualify for playoffs as I don't see York winning by 50

Crazy that we have games kicking off on different days and times across the weekend on the final round, near the top it probably won't make that much difference if results go the way you expect them to but having to play a day earlier could be a big disadvantage for Haven.

SATURDAY 23rd SEPTEMBER
Batley Bulldogs v Newcastle Thunder Batley by 26
Featherstone Rovers v Widnes Vikings Fev by 22
Whitehaven v Toulouse Olympique Toulouse by 12

SUNDAY 24th SEPTEMBER 
Barrow Raiders v York York by 10
Halifax Panthers v Swinton Lions Fax by 7
London Broncos v Keighley Cougars London by 18

Featherstone Rovers v Widnes Vikings - by 8
Whitehaven v Toulouse Olympique - by 4
Barrow Raiders v York  - by 6
Halifax Panthers v Swinton Lions - by 16
London Broncos v Keighley Cougars - by 12

London and Halifax secure the last two play-off places and Swinton relegated on points difference.

Halifax V Swinton is an odd one, that really could go either way on past performances this season, common sense says Fax should win quite easily but in this league anything can and probably will happen.

I can see both London and Tolouse losing as both have one eye on the playoffs.  London are pretty safe (needs 50+ points shift from Batley or York to displace them, and can't see either of them getting close, Batley playing on sat will also alert London in terms of what points difference they might need as well).

Fax on the other hand have to win, which put Swinton in the most danger IMHO

Its been an absolute minefield all season long for people trying to predict the winners in the Champ

I just feel there will be a big twist somewhere this week.

Not sure where it will be,  but Swinton winning and in turn relegating Keighley and knocking the Blue Sox out of the playoffs  would be just perfect. 😂

And here is me hoping for a Bradford win this weekend. 😉😂

Widnes to keep Fev score to under 40, to not have anyone sent off and score in both halves.

Not too much to ask? 😉

OAB on the team sheet for Toulouse but he's going to be a bit rusty for this game. TO missing too many players to make it a win I think.

Have you ever predicted a win for Toulouse, kiggy?

Yes, once. Against the bottom club Swinton at home, June 2019. Swinton won 20-18.

Think we might avoid a sending off, the others are a bit hopeful.

More than likely I won't bother with this one, nothing to play for and I have a bad feeling we won't be bothered.

And knowing the depths Widnes are capable of sinking too when they can't be bothered...............

Josh Ralph and Olly Ashall-Bott both back in action for Toulouse at Whitehaven this afternoon, a big boost for TO in their final game before the play-offs.

Half time

Whitehaven 6 Toulouse 22

Whitehaven currently -11 points difference to the other 2 relegation candidates 

I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally

Still anybody's relegation spot from those three, though looking good for Barrow.
