Looks like we'll be playing Batley in our play-off semi (unless York pull off a shock at Fax - mind you most of us foresaw a Barrow win today). Still the first scores being just before HT suggests a bruising battle before facing a rested Leigh (or Fev - for completeness).

Bongser will be a Fax fan for a couple of hours this evening, hoping for a ding-dong, biff-baff do at PO Rd next weekend.

F/T Barrow 8 Batley 18

I called a Batley win, just thought the play-offs would be a step too far for Barrow. Great season from the Cumbrians after promotion.

Agree, hoping for an energy sapping slug fest with Fev v Halifax next week.

I was for a Barrow win but listening to the radio commentary Batley were just too strong, particularly in the forwards where Barrow were missing a few players.

So much for my prediction but happy to be proved wrong. Congratulations to Batley.

I agree with Mick TL's comments above re Barrow. They have had a tremendous season and it looks from their recently announced signings,re-signings and rumoured signings that they will be a force in this division again. next season.

Roll on Batley who look like they will be making a return trip to the LSV next week. - having said that, York have just scored a try and are back in the game at 10-6 to Fax!

It’s looking like a Fax win , I think York have been unlucky things and decisions gone against them , I can’t see Fax beating Fev , not playing like this , and I think we will be to strong for the Bullfrogs .
