Can't see where the next win will come from to be honest. Wakey have been flirting with relegation for years, maybe this is the year they go down :(
bit harsh on your boys that love, 13 pts to Saints is hardly capitulation. Chin up and keep working, you'll stay safe.

Wakey were 10 - 0 up at half time. 18 - 0 up in a previous game and lost both games without scoring a single point in the second half. That's what I meant by capitulating OB......

Jorge Taufua now out with injury for the rest of the season along with Tom Johnstone. Doesn't bode well for Friday and our visit to Vegas :shock:

Not impressed with you tonight Mrs Swan. You promised me a second half capitulation.
Not happy. Not happy at all.

:(

However, I am here tonight.

Blimey. To be honest I'd put the game right out of my head, and only remembered at about 9.20 PM that the game was on. I hardly dare check the score on the BBC app, and could not believe the score with 20 mins to go. Wakey needed that win more than Cas OB, sorry. But I wish Cas well for the rest of the season.....top half finish beckons for you I'm sure :)

I'm confused. I thought 23 games were played in Superleague. Playing each team twice and then magic weekend. How come there are more games this year and how have the fixtures been decided, ie who plays who.....Does anyone know?

Great result for Wakey & Swannie last night. :-D

Hull KR comeback from 6-12 down to beat Toulouse 22-16.

Get that French team out of the Super League & allow proper rugby clubs in the top tier.

Fabulous result 64. Now Wakey have to show up on Sunday v the other French lot! :roll:

Yes, get 'em out and take Catalans with you :lol:
Seriously though, I'm sure rugby league fans would prefer English teams in the English league? There are some great clubs languishing in the lower divisions....it does irk me :x

Ask me an easy one such as the location of the holy grail. I’ll give it a go. Each team (12) plays each other home and away, that’s 22. Then magic weekend, that’s 23. Then each team has 6 “loop” fixtures, ie randomly selected games against teams they have no hope of beating, usually away from home, making the regular quota of 29 games. Don’t ask why but I think it’s probably got to do with Sky.

For example Cas and Leeds play each other 15 times a season. Cas win 13 times and Leeds win 27. Then the video ref overrules 18 of those games saying the ball went into touch and declares no try after 12 minutes of viewing replays from 85 different camera angles plus the satellite feed from the space station. Occasionally they ask the Russians to use their secret satellites to view offsides , which obviously Putin is happy to oblige.

It all makes sense to the rl bosses obviously.

By the way the holy grail is in my dishwasher as we speak.

We totally agree, Swannie

Let's have the likes of Featherstone Rovers, Batley, Keighley, Halifax, etc replace the French

Proper rugby league clubs.
