Theyre on form though! And yeah that should be good. It would be great to see Batley in super league and it's becoming more of a reality imo now. Halifax will probably be next in to replace bradford unless they convince the RFL in two years time they have sufficient sustainable funds.

I was discussing the possibility of Batley in the Super League with my Dad, but we don't think we have the ground space. I mean, Castleford have a pretty small ground but perhaps it's just in comparison to the likes of Widnes and Leeds. There was talk of Halifax going up but that's only if Bradford go down I think. Bit annoying too considering Halifax consists of a lot of ex-Batley players!

I think Bradford are safe on that front now, they've been bought and are submitting a report to the RFL this week. We play Wakefield tonight and if we win we should not finish bottom! Can't wait it's on Sky Sports 2

Glad Bradford sorted themselves out. I don't want Featherstone or Halifax getting all smug about going up.. Should be a good game tonight... good luck!

Just been over to Halifax... such a tense game. Final score was 26-20 to Halifax, but we were winning 14-6 at half-time. So near, yet so far! Into the play-offs now!

Ah unfortunate, I noticed you where winning at half time I presumed it would be the same at the end Best of luck in the play offs!!!

So as we move closer and closer to the Grand Final with less than three weeks to go things are hotting up in the race to the Grand Final!

We saw Wigan and Saints both victorious over the weekend each earning their place in the Semi-Finals and earning a week off while Hull and Leeds were triumphant over their respective opponents, eliminating Huddersfield and Wakefield from the Play-Offs. Catalans (who lost against Wigan) will be given a second chance as they finished the league in the top four and will face Leeds. Hull battle Warrington (who also get a second chance after finishing 2nd) this weekend in two games where the losing teams will not have another second chance.

So, what team are you routing for?

I'm a Saints fan myself and their victory over Warrington was amazing. I was there at the Halliwell Jones Stadium in Warrington when Lomax's terrific dummy secured Saints' win when Makinson scored his second try of the evening.

It should be a great build up to Old Trafford and I personally can't wait.

Widnes fan here, would like to see a team like Hull win it. Although if it's not wire there's no problem

COME ON LEEDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I largely follow Batley Bulldogs in the league below, but we got knocked out by Sheffield Eagles a couple of weeks ago so I'll probably keep track of the two finals now (we haven't won the Eagles since something like 1995, grr)! Nice to see another Rugby League fan on the forum: a Saints fan too... it looks like you've signed our star player, Alex Walmsley. He came to us last year from Dewsbury Celtic and each and every match, he's been one of our best players. It's crazy to think that he's only been playing profesionally for a year (with Batley) and you can already see such huge potential - he's going to play for England one day... a cracking player. He's only 21 too. Thankfully, we have him on dual-contract so whenever the Saints want to give him a rest, we can hopefully have him back here, haha.

I read about this new signing this morning. I've never watched him play before but he sounds like an interesting signing.
