Feels a bit like anyone can beat anyone on any given day. Which is quite refreshing tbh
Rugby League 2026 @P-Nut returns to Rugby League - Retires after 2 games!
- Thread starter JinnerJamie
- Start date
Hopefully, it pans out like that for the rest of the season. Just not in the derby!
Everyone seems to be missing key players, which is certainly playing its part.
Dogshit from start to finish. Saints - Wigan next time and both sets of fans are absolutely shitting it.
Might be Warrington’s year at last
It's official
Big Willie is signing off at the end of the season to coach in the NRL.
Grandstand finish at Hull City's ground?
FC 22-0 at HT now 22-18 with 6mins to go...
Catalans 4 tries in 12 mins to make it a nervy finish.

Sounds like some game. I see FC managed to hold on for the points, but not before Catalans equalled the scores?
Edged out to 24 - 18, Catalans added 2 back themselves.
24 -20 final score.
Leeds - Warrington seemed another corker of a game, Rhinos taking it 26 - 22.
Another derby win for The Robins, into top 6 with a game in hand.
We got fortunate with Martins disallowed try which would brought it to 10-10 just after the break. I don’t think you’ll find many an honest rovers fan that would say there was clear daylight between hand ball.
Overall the better side, should’ve made the first half dominance count. Still loads of little errors that we need to eradicate.
Hull dug in but more and more injuries Asiata again. Seriously what’s with that club and broken players?

Saints and Wigan up next
I was surprised they disallowed the potential 10-10 it really did look like a too close to call.Another derby win for The Robins, into top 6 with a game in hand.

It was a bad decision from the VR. Hull just faded after that, and Asiata's injury in the same play just flattened them.
I found it a horrible watch until Litten went over after May's brilliant play, then we pulled away.
Missed the Hull derby but on to this one. Saints hanging in well, but hard to see Wigan not ultimately taking advantage of all the Saints injuries, worsened after only a few minutes with the Paasi injury. Good watch so far though.
It wasn't a classic derby.
Saints have given a good account of themselves, but I fully agree with Wigan taking the two points without much fuss.
Or maybe not...
Disgraceful last 10 mins from Wigan. Talk about throwing away 2pts and playing powder puff rugby.
Shocking.
Shocking.
Ahem…
Saints have pulled it back!!
Bill Leyland rovers and saints legend!

Very happy to be wrong!
Missed it through putting my tea on and sorting the dog out!
What an ending from St Helens. There's been some close matches this season and this ended up not even close.
Wish I had!
Saints did ok up to the 70min, then we just fell of a cliff. Nsemba injury didn’t help and Havard having an HIA but we should have seen it out comfortably.
Yeah, it always felt like Wigan had more than enough to win the game until that last 15 minutes. Strange though how difficult it seems to be to combat a side once they gather the sort of momentum Saints had there. The lad Leyland was brilliant in that final part of the game too.
Yeah they got on a roll and we just couldn’t stop them, 4 tries in 10mims though is very poor.
Pete better be fuming after that.
Think Wigan drop down the table after this performance. Might seem an overreaction but that was such a poor performance nobody in the league should be fearing them and I think they'll lose a few more before arresting the slide
Be interesting if Leeds keep up their momentum. Could be top if they win tonight.

Embarrassing. Two poor teams at the moment, but one keep their heads while the other goes to pieces.
They want to have a fecking look in the mirror after what they've dished up these last two weeks, and I mean players and staff.

BBC coverage of Super League is an absolute joke. Two games I’ve watched over the last couple of weeks and both times the coverage has been interrupted by a technical fault. And in this game they decided to cut away from Leeds’ conversion for some reason.
Hull KR, Warrington and Saints through to the Challenge Cup semis. Wigan likely to join them tomorrow for a pretty strong line-up.
Semi finals confirmed:
Warrington v Hull KR
Wigan v St Helens
Pick the bones out of those!

That was a good cup game, end to end, lots of mistakes, so good tries. Could have gone either way.
I'm worried about our defence, we're too easy to score against at the moment and giving away stupid penalties left and right. Happy to get a win on the board in the end.
Yeah, seems to be a dodgy defensive period we go through every season, it’ll get sorted but not sure why it happens.
Emotional scenes at the MKM, seems like Cartwright is gone after this.
Saints looking good despite the injuries.
More injuries for FC and a probable new coach, season started with optimism seems to have turned sour indeed.

Rovers picking up some steam 46-0 at Toulouse but even though they are playing Huddersfield Leeds are looking ominous, picked up from August last season.
Surprise home defeat for Wigan against Castleford. All looks wide open this year.
We are in serious trouble. There are a few out for injuries/suspensions but it's not an excuse to put in such rancid displays against average opposition. Poor attack, poor defence, poor discipline, poor ball handling, boneheaded rugby. Absolute shite.
No doubt there’ll be a serious bounce back against the Wolves on Friday!
I highly doubt it, we’re playing really awful and with Harry Smith out for a few games we have no one putting in them pin point kicks.
Need the pack to seriously step up cause the backs don’t have much about them at the minute.
Maybe your optimism levels will rise when you hear that George Williams is out for an unspecified time period, as is prop James Harrison. I believe Jake Wardle could be back for Wigan, too.
Balances it out some what, we are due a decent game at some point as well.
Need the forwards to be right put for this cause I don’t have the confidence in the backs to do much.
