were any games played?

I know the Irlam and Langworthy games didnt happen.

Widnes Tigers 12-16 Leigh East B
Golborne Parkside 48-6 Rylands Sharks.

Think they were the only 2.

Langworthy players are still at summer clubs, spoke to one of their players on Saturday night

Having a summer and winter club was always doomed to failure with significant overlaps in the season. Madness.

Which Langworthy players are at other clubs wirejb?

Wouldn't have known them even if I asked their names, he just said some at Little Hulton, Caddishead etc until the end of the summer season.

There has already been lots of 24-0 this season but do you think now that the winter season has started there will be more 24-0 as the winter players have gone back to there winter teams so maybe some summer teams may struggle for numbers? or have gone winter them self's as they don't like the summer league

depends how loyal players are to one or other club but also...who is the 'primary club' in terms of their registration. I thought you could only play for your secondary club when your primary club didn't need you so if you've a team of secondary registartions in summer, you're a bit buggered now that winter has begun; if they are all primary registrations then you are going to be OK.

Thatto Heath and Eccles are supposed to be entering teams. Just what the league wants more clubs that forfeit half their games and thrash everyone the other half.

From what i know, the thatto heath team will be more of a new team rather than a team made up of thier 1st and 2nd team.

its all stemed from a chairty game i was involved in a few weeks ago between the 06 leavers of two st helens schools which was held at thatto heath. i would think the main core of players would come from that rather than the current summer teams.

Just like the summer switch the 'new' winter set-up will need time to develop. The summer switch has allowed lower league team(s) to develop with an influx of winter players who'd normally play at a higher level. It'll be interesting to see how things go for the remainder of their season now the winter league players have started to go back. I expect the consistency in games going ahead in the winter leagues to rise in a few weeks time.
In terms of blow out scores one week and then not turning a team out the next this is no different to the 1st few years of the summer leagues when some teams benefitted from higher league winter players playing against lower league players, those new to the game and ru converts. Funny how things have gone full circle.

Yeah true. The likes of Liverpool Buccaneers crumbled to dust when most clubs moved to summer. Though a genuine Liverpool City in the Emerging clubs league have arisen.

Hopefully it will settle but I think the RFL have a lot to answer for with the dual registration rule. It seems to wreck summer and winter
