Wakefield Trinity 46 Featherstone Rovers 18

First local derby at Belle Vue for over 20 seasons I believe. Few Rovers fans attending no doubt down to their demise this season both on and off the field.

Trinity scored some impressive tries in the heat to get back to winning ways in front of 6453 at the game. M.O.M. for me was Pitts along with Walmsley, Bowden and Gale putting good shifts and Pratt scoring another wonderful solo effort.

Cannot see us losing a game now for the rest of the normal league season. A grand final at home to Toulouse in mid October could well see a sold out stadium and a return to Super League in 2025.
