anyone else noticed that the NWC web-site tables still do not include the Crossfield v Eccleston result in the figures??? Has it been written off some how?

No, just you.



That result was missed that week on the [url=http://nwcarl.leaguerepublic.com/ProcessPublicSelect.do;jsessionid=617463110F8591A3A874347824A2A3BD?psSelectedSeason=475011&psSelectedDivision=8293033&psSelectedCompetition=0&psSelectedLeague=2343442League Republic site[/url, I emailed them and it was added, but the [url=http://www.nwcoaarl.org.uk/old crappy NWC site[/url never seems to have been updated.

Round 5, 2nd Oct:

Bury Broncos vs Bolton Mets
Crosfields vs Wigan Bulldogs
Newton Storm vs Eccleston Lions
Rylands Sharks A vs Wigan St Cuthbert's A
St Helens Wild Boars vs Widnes Tigers
Westhoughton Lions vs Chorley Panthers

Bury looking forward to the derby on Saturday against Bolton, I'll tip us again for the win though I suspect Bolton will find a full squad for this one!! As for the rest, Bulldogs - Crosfields should be close, I'll go for Crosfields with them being at home; Eccleston will have too much for Newton who continue to struggle; St Cuthberts look to have started stronger than Rylands though could be close. Wild Boars will be too strong for Widnes and I'm struggling with Westhoughton - Chorley, though I'll give Westhoughton the benefit with them being at home.

I also wonder if a couple of the Wigan sides might be weakened with the GF this Sat - and they're both away to Warrington sides.

Issue is - the NWC one is the 'official' site and league table! so if Eccleston don't move quick it could just get forgotten...at the last league meeting it was said that no form had ever been received from the game, and the result not called in. Don't want NWC just assuming it was not played...well, not if you're Eccleston you don't!

I have no problem with Eccleston losing 2 points!!



They'll be up there at the end of the season fighting for the top spots...hopefully alongside (or just below) us!

All is sorted at our end, just needs updating by the powers that be.

As for playing this saturday, thats the question. What with most of the team going to the grand final. Why not give us the week off.

should play rugby league in a town that doesnt care about the GF....try Bury with us! we offered multiple pubs the chance to have 15 watching (and drinking during)the Wire v Hudds game. they all preferred Arsenal v Sunderland

All away wins except for St Helens, but then it depends on the Wigan and Sts teams fielding full teams

Any games off?

Newton v Eccleston went ahead, match played in good spirits but newtons defence was poor, few players missing attending GF early but no excuse for the result. best team weve played in my opinion and have the fastest centre ive seen for many a year. Newton can only get better!!!!

results from this weekend

Bury Broncos 20 - 38 Bolton Mets
Crosfields 0 - 18 Wigan Bulldogs
Newton Storm 6 - 50 Eccleston Lions
St Helens Wild Boar 36 - 32 Widnes Tigers
Rylands Sharks A 36 - 16 Wigan St Cuthberts A
Westhoughton Lions 18 - 0 Chorley Panthers

If we put on the pitch what we do in training we will be fine. Hope Ecclestons centre is ok, i dont know what happened when he was tackling me but someone mentioned a slipped disk? Hope its nothing serious mate.
