Mark Aston please play the academy side on Sunday : Wed Aug 28, 2013 8:44 pm  

Bloody Bonus Points once we get rid of them the better !! If we were playing by super league rules we would still be leading the competition by 2 points !!!. Featherstone dont deserve to be league winners but they will, Hunslet need the points desperately but Featherstone should win by 12 points plus on Sunday so Mark Aston please give up on the Championship shield we had our chance but the stupid rules have conspired against us. Please play the academy team against Doncaster, the players have played brilliantly this season but are looking tired so please rest them now so they can come back fully recharged for the playoffs

I forget when it was, 2 or 3 years ago I think but didn't you get 6 or 7 one year and therefore finish a few places higher than you "deserved" to. Everyone plays by the same rules, swings and roundabouts. If you'd have gotten the bonus point today would you have made this thread? Unlikely.

We all play by the same rules well done to fev fully deserved it tonight IMO we played for the bonus point in the second half so fairs fair I'm no great fan of the bonus point but we all knew the rules at the start of the season.We move on

Overall it's been a great year thats not over yet if we beat donny sunday we'll go into the playoffs with a confidence boost

Again well done fev

Just annoyed it has been a superb season and winning the Champions shield would have have been a fantastic achievement for our club considering our resources and fan base and the 25K would have been most welcome !! With Superleague 2 starting in 2015 things will be a lot tougher next season with the full time sides Fax Leigh and Fstone no doubt strengthening their sides and us being homeless !!! However just looked at the table and fixtures we will probably be at home to Halifax in the 1st round of the playoffs which is good news much rather play Halifax than Leigh

In response to the original, no, get bent. You didn't think Swinton or Donny would beat Fev this season but they did. And Hunslet need a result or they're probably screwed.

It's been a fantastic year so far, in the league we've played 25 won 22
If you'd have said to me we'd have done that at the start of the year I'd have laughed my a**e off

I didn't know fax,leigh and fev were fulltime?

we'll be reyt

Apparently Fev are going full time next year. Not aware of any plans by Leigh or Fax to do it though.
