Crosfields V St Helens Wild Boar
Eccleston Lions V Wigan Bulldogs
Newton Storm V Wigan St Cuthbert’s A
Rylands Sharks A V Chorley Panthers
Westhoughton Lions V Bury Broncos

I'll go with most of those except Westhoughton vs Bury, we've got several missing but reckon we've still enough to beat them.

Fair enough just gone for westhoughton why they are at home. we've got both Bury and Westhoughton to play this season so keep looking out to see if both teams are putting teams out or giving any fixtures away.

both clubs conceded last week because of stag events (in both cases, people involved in running as well as playing at the club). people plan weddings etc. long before seasons start and the rule allowing free weekends was only withdrawn at start of season...

Crosfields V St Helens Wild Boar be closer than some will expect

Eccleston Lions V Wigan Bulldogs (Away win, Look like Bulldogs have improved)

Newton Storm V Wigan St Cuthbert’s A (Not biased at all)

Rylands Sharks A V Chorley Panthers (Home Win)

Westhoughton Lions V Bury Broncos (Home advantage)

also Hindley A to smash Widnes Tigers in the friendly game thats organised!

Westhoughton Lions 12 - 16 Bury Broncos

Ugly win in atrocious conditions - that pitch is verging on unplayable, boggy as hell, standing water, etc but at least it's a game!! Westhoughton struggled for numbers, think they had 14/15, and we had several key players missing (including spells with no half-backs at all today!). Penalties nearly killed us, ref was generally good, but started giving penalties when people called 'forward' or 'knock-on' - ffs, that's a gut reaction! Still, some of our players want a word with themselves. A few tasty moments and a few sin-binnings but all in all a decent if unspectacular and unattractive game and pleased with the win.

A good hard game, with both teams throwing everything at each other. The game is hard enough, without us having poor referee's. Yes it did get a bit tasty at times, maybe a sin-bin or 2 was needed. But when a ref says "Im not going to get cards out, cos i cant be d doing the paper work" Oh dear, protect yourselfs lads. lol

Rylands 34 - 14 Chorley.

Score doesnt reflect the game. An absolute cracker to play in, on a very good pitch.

crossfields 22 wild boars 26

we had to go there and get the win and we did against a much improved crossfields team, the team sheet was different from last game different faces, quicker line speed and fitter outfit and more organised in attack, i did notice their first team didnt have a game, they told us in the showers they had a few in, but when there coach comes in at the end and says you boys really deserved that im guessing there was a few more than they made out.

we started on fire 3 tries after 20 minutes and looked like we was really in command of the game then all of a sudden massive brawl in which a crossfield player/coward ran from behind after it had stopped and took a total airshot missed and ran off, the ref sent him off and reversed his decision at half timethis again i put down to the fact they were all on first name terms with the ref, went in 14-8 at half time again the start of the second half seen some good rugby by the boars and we was 26 14 and had to play hang on for the last 10 minutes,

our aim was a win and we got it, look forward to the bury game next week just hope there isnt much overtime going up there, or they didnt get many injuries last game, or no stag doos, parents evenings etc as we have waited a while to play bury and if we win this we need 1 win against westhoughton or newton to guarentee the league

Probably their prop who ran in from behind, he did it against our lads too, but when it was going toe to toe he didnt wanna know.

Think it was a second row who did it, was quite funny when all Crofields line and players were asking why he was sent off and he simply kept saying Cheap Shot thats why. But the ref then come out and said it wasnt a red only a sin bin because he didnt connect properly? work that one out!!!

Then the lad that was sent off/sin binned swapped shirts with another player when he came back on.

we have crosfields away on saturday, this ref sounds awful, best not get him. i think everyones out to get the league leaders. Wild boars have more discipline than in previous years maybe a reason why ur walking away with the league this year

cheap shots get no respect though, just make people look like tarts, Leagueorunion is like that for us. tries fighting everygame but complete airshots!! Wimp

Crosfields v Newton Storm
Wigan Bulldogs v Widnes Tigers
Wigan St Cuthbert’s v Eccleston Lions
Westhoughton Lions v Rylands Sharks
St Helens Wild Boar v Bury Broncos

Think Newton should win this one just depends if Crosfields throw any 1st teamers in. Think Wigan v Widnes will be to close to call to going for a draw. Gone for Cuthberts why they are at home, and think Rylands will be to strong for westhoughton but hope i am proved wrong.

Obviously going for a win for us against Bury, never played each other before so be a good game. how are Bury doing for a team??

We've placed adverts in the local press and fly-posted the schools, fingers crossed we'll scrape enough unless they have paper rounds. 4.6484375:5
