I think the British Summer has contributed to it being quiet on here, we have only played on 2 of the last 6 Saturdays so with the amount of games being called off it is always going to drop off a bit.

No disrespect to any other teams on here, but Thursday is the biggest game of the season so far in Division 2, we are unbeaten and Farnworth unbeaten since the opening day, I think it is going to be a cracker.

HFH - we also had a very good session last night, about 28 turned up and the coach was able to pick his team at training with no cry offs from training.

Let's hope the rain stays off and we get a dryish pitch to see some good rugby.

Excellent conditions for a top of the table match tonight should be a very good game!

HFH 30 - Bold 14.

HFH were definitely the better team for the full 80, their kicking game and goal line defence especially impressive.

I don't know what went wrong with us, maybe lads were a bit complacent after some big wins, but we didn't perform how we have so far for most of the season. We went back to some of our old ways of playing panic rugby when we were behind, even in the first half.
We have played 3 games in 7 weeks with aggregate score of 160-12, HFH have been playing more consistently, maybe this had them more prepared for a tough game.

These are just ideas off the top of my head, not excuses, as I said all credit to HFH definitely the best team on the night.

Too many mistakes and penalties all in all from us, cannot blame the ref, but his policing of the ruck and HFH offside was shocking.

You can't win em all so it's how we react to this that will really show where our season goes

Had to call our game off v Latchford, HFH will tell u the state it was in last week, and after yesterday its totally unplayable.

Gotta be honest gettin totally pi$$ed of with this season, whether it the weather, shortage if players.

Heady days of turning up with a full squad smashin teams in icey January seem an all too distant memory.

Well done HFH gettin the job done again....thats what puts trophies in the cabinet.

Hey all
Just wanted to give leyland a bit of credit for last weekend
They turned up with a bare 13 where a few teams would have settled for 24 0
Good luck for the rest of the season hopefully you will get a few players back and available soon

Also should be s good game coming up this sat with Leigh miners visiting with both teams needing the win to keep in touch with Halton and bold
We played in Warrington alliance cup tonight and blooded 6 of our under 17's so hopefully a good turn out on sat for an important game

You will get a tough game v Lmr, we beat them 14-0 at our place, and held our own for 40 mins on Friday

Couple of new faces that didn't play in the first game v us.......but we did play them Friday and the first team where playin on then Saturday which may explain that one.

We played them in the interim season they were a very young,keen side
we won but it was only by 2 points and we were behind for a lot of the game
First team have a game sat so we should get the team you Played when you beat them!!

Massive game for HFH this weekend.

LMR only team to beat us this year, looking forward to the home fixture.

NEW PLAYERS WANTED

Leyland Warriors are looking to recruit more players at Open Age level. As some of our results show from earlier this season, we have some quality lads on board but just need more numbers.

Long story short, due to a combination of several players travelling on gap years, emigrating, working weekends, long term injuries and so on, we are struggling for numbers. Very frustrating, especially given as all of our junior teams are flourishing in the change of season.

If you are without a club, or looking for a change of scenery, PM me for more details.

Lets have your thoughts on this weekends fixtures.

Latchford Albion vs. Rochdale Mayfield - Latchford too strong at home.
Halton Farnworth Hornets vs. Leigh Miners Rangers - HFH for me


Ince Rose Bridge vs. Bold Miners - Hopefully IRB will have enough at home for BM
Leyland Warriors vs. Haresfinch - Haresfinch, Leyland seem to have gone off the boil recently and Finch are a decent side.
Chorley Panthers vs. Oldham St Annes - CP, progressed massively since the start of the season.
Wigan St Judes vs. Wigan Spring View - Judes poor discipline cost them last week so SV for me as they will be too organised for Judes.

Another top performance today even missing 8 first team players.

Completely dominated LMR from start to finish to win 46-6

IRB 6 - Bold Miners 32

Good result, but we were sloppy at times in attack and really bombed 4/5 tries, defence was very strong as Ince threw everything at us in the second half.

Surprised with the HFH-Miners score, not the result, bit did expect it to be closer.

Chorley P 42 - 28 Oldham St Annes

Two big scores there on games that I thought would have been a lot closer,could do with you slipping up soon please ha ha!!
We played a very poor Rochdale side but credit to them for showing up and givIng it a go
Friday night game for us this week away at chorley which I'm expecting will be a tough game

Lets have your thoughts on this week chaps?

Haresfinch vs. Ince Rose Bridge - Haresfinch, home advantage.
Leigh Miners Rangers vs. Bold Miners - Bold if they play organised rugby as we did last week.
Leyland Warriors vs. Halton Farnworth Hornets - HFH
Rochdale Mayfield vs. Wigan St Judes - Rochdale, home adv again.
Wigan Spring View vs. Oldham St Annes - SV too strong for OsA

Good luck to everyone tomorrow.

Don't forget us,were at chorley tonight - Latchford by 4
My predictions

Haresfinch - quite a handy side and seem to be tough to beat at home
Bold - Leigh firsts are away at skirlaugh so seconds may not be strong enough to beat bold
Hfh - leyland seem to be struggling after a good start,Halton playing really well can't see anything but a big win
St.judes - Rochdale were a struggling team last week and can't see much changing this week
Spring view - two sides who you never know what sort of team they can put out but sv as they are at home

It's gonna be a warm weekend summer rugby has finally arrived!!!!

Soz Roly, good luck tonight, Albion by 12

Dont fortget to post your score later.

Cheers mate
I'll pop on here straight after and put the result on

Haresfinch vs. Ince Rose Bridge - Haresfinch by 12
Leigh Miners Rangers vs. Bold Miners - Miners by 6
Leyland Warriors vs. Halton Farnworth Hornets - HFH 20+
Rochdale Mayfield vs. Wigan St Judes - Judes by 12
Chorley v Latchford - Albion by 10

Good luck to all involved!

Game abandoned after 50 min
Sickening injury to a chorley player,best wishes to him it was a horrible one

No good.

Best wishes to that fella.

Sorry to hear that. What happened pal?

It was just one of them things unfortinately,his leg just got stuck as he went to ground
One of the worst I've seen in 20 years of Playing

Best wishes to the Chorley player, never good to see or hear of lads badly injured playing amateur sport. Hope he recovers well.

Saturdays game.

Leigh Miners 11 - Bold Miners 10.

Either team could have won this, but I think a draw would have been a good result. Both teams had tries disallowed and spurned chances and we had 2 drop goals charged down before Leigh dropped a goal with the last play of the game.

Don't want to say he had any bearing on the result, but the ref seemed to think everybody had come to watch him and came up with some strange decisions, but we let ourselves get frustrated by some of them which led to a sinbin for dissent. Poor decisions for both sides but Leigh to their credit got on with the game where we got on his back.

SV 36-12 Leyland
