On another note, think Paul Cooke deserves a fair bit of credit for getting Fev into the play-offs after the start we had to the season. Difficult game to assess today as it was a dead rubber for Oldh

Why? They're not the best team in the Championship and their ground is diabolical

Well done to York, they've been the best and most consistent team in the division and the right team has topped the league. I'm tempted to say that in an ideal world that would seal their place in SL,

Hunslet v Sheffield is 15.05 because of this crazy Government thing.

Whatever you do don't look at your phone while the alarm is going off, at least unless you are wearing a tinfoil hat.

As a Rugby League supporter, I have every right to be outraged at every trivial perceived slight. It's what the game's about!

If you are on your way to the Broncos game, there are no trains between Clapham Junction and Earlsfield/Wimbledon. From central London, there is District Line to Wimbledon or Northern Line to Tooting Bec. Both involve either a walk to Plough Lane or a bus (493). There is also Blackfriars (Thameslink) to Haydons Road. Haydons is a shorter walk to the ground.

On the train,London 24 Bradford 34 (HT 12-10. A fair scoreline, before the game even started I noted the Bradford Bulls were a typical Brian Noble side physically big and I thought they would wear down the Broncos as the game progressed and so it proved.

One thing you can say about a Mike Eccles coached side, they may be a team of try hards 3-4 players short of the championship top level but.unlike more talented Broncos  sides of the past they do not throw in towel and pulled two tries back at the end. Even if Bradford sealed the game with a try in-between scores.

One of Pen-y-bonts Brixton Bulls was one of the young southern area junior players to get an award handed by Darren Lockyear at half time and a photo with him to boot.

One to be treasured as Darren was described by Dewi Morris ona rugby union.programme back in his pomp in 2003 as the best "rugby" player in either code on the planet at the time.

Finally, for me Bradford Bulls to Super League to replace Salford is an absolute no-brainer.

A wins a win. Actually thought this could be a loss today. London biggest game, well marketed around a great cause. Darren Lockyer in the background. We've a hangover after disappointment of last week. But stumbled over the line (again) to secure 3rd.

Could anyone who followed Toulouse v Batley share the scorers detail, please? BBC list all Toulouse scorers but are missing some Batley ones. Club website has the names of all players who scored but not how many tries / kicks each. I've got a predictions thread on here and our tiebreaker this week is linked to numbers of points scored by individual players in the Championship. Thanks.
