FULL TIME
Featherstone Rovers 20-42 Leigh Centurions

Leigh Centurions record their 11th successive win with an impressive performance at Post Office Road against a team that beat them in the LSV earlier in the season.

Well said tezza, no one would like to comment on the brilliant Centurions win today.

Jean, Sir Kev & King James will be absent from this thread this evening.....bless ! Pathetic bunch of Trolls

Absolutely budge.

I would have thought they (he) will all be up at St. James Park, enjoying the 'Magic' experience with Catalans, Toulouse and Toronto.

Great result for Leigh and The Championship is really hotting up, with any of the current top 6 in with a chance of the Middle 8's

London should win today and Halifax too and Fax will be on the same points as Leigh with a game in hand.
Leigh, though, are in a fine vein of form and now looking good for a playoff spot.

Cheers wrencat.

It's getting closer now. Whilst Leigh are still stuck with those five early season defeats, Toulouse, Featherstone, London and Halifax have all lost four now. Toronto still look comfortable, with only three points dropped - although we have two games coming up, against them. It would be great if they could slip down to three or four defeats too - but of course they have so many home games to come.

Do you honestly expect him (Jean, Kev and Lebron) to be commenting on a post that is not in relation to Toronto, Toulouse getting promotion to SL, or Catalan to retain theirs

Tornoto v Leigh should be a belter next week. 2 sides in great form.

No Roy....only the next time we lose, although it's been 3 months since we lost a game.

Oh how he wishes he could say that about his beloved Crapalan Dragons

Haven't seen it yet (broken ankle) but my lad went and said Leigh were the better side. Fev Facebook page says ref was the best they'd seen all season. Well done Leigh. Fev need to beat 'Fax next Saturday and London at Fev to stay in contention. UTR

Those 2 games will define both your season and theirs.

Fearing for the rest of our (Featherstone's) season now. 3 teams in us, Fax and London vying for 1 spot with the top 3 nailed on as Toronto, Toulouse and Leigh although unsure in what order. I think us not making the top 4 would be disastrous and potentially ruin the steps we've taken over the last few years.

If London can surprise TO next weekend things will open up.

Its been the most competitive league for years, brilliant

Congratulations on reaching 5th place Leigh fans. Still not in a middle 8 qualifying position though.

They will be brought back down to ground next week when they meet the mighty Toronto Wolfpack.

Sooooooperleague ain't so super by comparison

Is it me, or there is more interest in the Middle 8's rather than the Top 4?

Yeah this is Rugby League not much changes at the top, you can pretty much predict the top four before the season starts.

Unless your team is involved in the battle for the top, the middle 8's is far more interesting.
There is more jeopardy in the promotion / relegation battle and the MPG is akin to ambulance chasing.
You know that someone will get hurt but, you cant help wanting to watch.

Saints already look assured of a semi final spot, probably with Wigan and Warrington and it all comes down to who will finish 4th.
Cas, despite their injuries look a decent bet but it does look more and more like 4th will be between FC and Cas.

The bottom is far more interesting and it's going to be 4 from the current bottom 6 with both Salford and Wakeifeld now looking over their shoulders.
Widnes & KR look like they've got 11th & 12th sorted but 9th & 10th are going to be mighty interesting and then come the Championship pretenders.
Toronto will be going for it but, of the others, only Leigh look capable of mounting a serious challenge, assuming that they dont slip up along the way.

MPG will be Toronto vs KR ??

Widnes down, Toronto up. Rest to remain the same.

alas, not true. 50,000 TV viewers and 6,888 in attendance is hardly evidence of it being a draw-card event.
If I were a betting man I'd have Toronto & Leigh already up and the MPG being a relegation battle between 2 current SL sides.

There’s lots of interest because Toronto and Toulouse both have the potential to compete with Super League sides and possibly gain promotion. Expanding the game in France and Canada would be fantastic for the sport of Rugby League.
