Betfred Super League Round 12
Wakefield Trinity 72 - 10 Salford Red Devils
A 13 try demolition of financially crippled Salford who have to play a huge number of academy lads and reserves due to the sanctions the RFL have placed on the Red Devils .
There is no mucking about in Rugby League if you fall foul of the financial rules and Salford are paying that price severely .
Football take note , it can be done .
The win moves Trinity back to 6th and in the Play Off spots .

It's a 4.30 PM KO Pass but I've seen it still advertised as 2.30 PM .Quote:

It should be a cracking game and a feisty affair against a much improved Rhinos outfit but we've already beaten them at Headingley in Round One and go over there full of confidence ourselves after our recent good run .
Looking forward to a good afternoon on Saturday with some cracking pubs around Headingley pre match , much better than Leeds city centre , pay our respects to the late great Rob Burrow and a feisty West Yorkshire Derby to boot .
That sounds a nice afternoon mi owd. A bet tha can't whack a sesh rarnd Headingley. The looks to be some great looking boozers in close proximity. Never been in any but av worked round those parts many a time over the years and always thought what a cracking whet tha could ev ararnd theear.Quote:

We have what they call loop games in Super League Pass to make the fixtures up to 27 with the 12 clubs .Quote:

We play Leeds at home in July .
Why they just don't extend Super League to 14 clubs is probably a little too simple for the powers that be in the RFL .
Thanks for explaining that mate. Have a cracking day art next Setdy 🍻Quote:

We have the edge in my opinion in the forwards and we can score from almost anywhere but we've got to keep Leeds offensively as docile as we can .
That big Headingley crowd of theirs can get restless when it isn't going their way and they start going for too much and throwing worldies out to the wings .
And Hull Kingston still keep on improving, which annoys me to say lol.
Surely they will beat Warrington in the Cup final. 🏉
Betfred Super League Round 13
Leeds Rhinos 22 - 18 Wakefield Trinity

Rob Burrow 2024
A privilege to be part of such a special afternoon at Headingley yesterday .
Magnificent game of Rugby League befitting of the little fella whose spirit I dare say got the Rhinos over the line .
Not an afternoon to be disappointed , there are things in life more important and bigger than a sporting result .
God bless you Rob .
Leeds are going through a bit of a good and lucky spell, and they were also very lucky to beat us at Headingley, a few weeks ago.
And by the looks of it, they also scraped it against Wakey.
We however went to France again, and absolutely handed out another codding to Catalans. 😁
