Or score remains the same and Broncos get a last min penalty. Do they take the two?

If it was going to be the very last kick, yes, because that's what they would do any other time. 2 minutes left, possibly not as there would be time for a Keighley score from the kick off. Best to keep the ball and drive it in for 6.

Moot now, try London. 24-16

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

I think that boat sailed when Whitehaven played yesterday. Agree though that all games should have kicked off at same time. 

Toulouse play all their matches on Saturdays so all the Sunday ones would have had to have been moved.

York have won......

Fax need 3 converted tries to save their season

 

They’ve just got one of them. 12-22.

Keighley down as it stands unless Fax score 18 unanswered points in 10 minutes. 

I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally

Anybody have Keighley to get relegated? No, me neither.

York make the playoffs on the final day, a quite unbelievable thought a few months ago!

10 out of the last 11. Some run that.

I think about a coupe of months ago before the London v Fax 1895 cup SF, I asked which would you prefer winning the 1895 cup or making the playoffs.

Now I am curious to hear from the Fax fans has that has actually come to pass, in that you won the 1895 but missed out on the playoffs, which London will finish 4th or 5th.....

But maybe wait a day or two to calm down first

If your Bradford do you want to face a fired up York, or a London you beat in the capital only 2 weeks ago.....  Interesting quandry going into last matches

Nopoint second guessing that game, or the one that follows. Same for the Eagles. Best to focus on winning tonight. Either way, you can argue that losing isn't the end of the world for either.

Not many would of predicted Fax 8th at the begining of the season. You have to question if that 1895 cup run and victory hindered them in the long run or not. Listening to the game they had no steam at all.

Fax are 8th. Not 7th.

Astonishing run of form by York to end the regular season, but Fax fans will be fuming.

Meanwhile, I'm struggling to think of a more calamitous Championship coaching decision in the last few years than Keighley's sacking of Rhys Lovegrove....

Rhys Lovegrove, and the players who left ,all seem to have had more success since leaving than the club. 

Mr Henderson & Brenden Santi certainly proving the point.

     No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.

Halifax perfected the rugby league art of getting a load of kids into the ground and then getting turned over.

Swinton were excellent, played their hearts out for 80 minutes and thoroughly deserved the win.

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.
