:00:00. > :00:34.Hello, we are two thirds of the way disagree, in my constituency we have

:00:35. > :00:37.Hello, we are two thirds of the way through the regular season, so this

:00:38. > :00:41.weekend it was time for the clubs chasing the play-off places to get

:00:42. > :00:44.on their bikes. The teams at the summit of the competition are as

:00:45. > :00:54.tightly bunched as the riders in the Tour de France, but this is stage 19

:00:55. > :00:56.of Super League. The Wildcats are on the climb, leads up next for

:00:57. > :01:02.Wakefield on their unbeaten head coach. -- Leeds Rhinos. The Tigers

:01:03. > :01:12.are back in the running as Castleford look for back-to-back

:01:13. > :01:14.wins. They are at Widnes. And Matty Bowen on life with the champions of

:01:15. > :01:26.Super League. Wakefield's Richard Mavers and Danny

:01:27. > :01:29.McGuire of Leeds were in opposite corners on Friday night but they've

:01:30. > :01:32.joined forces to give us every side of every story in the latest round

:01:33. > :01:36.of matches, and it's been an eventful few days old Kingston

:01:37. > :01:41.Rovers they parted company with Craig Sander cock on Sunday ahead of

:01:42. > :01:47.the visit of the super league leaders. Defeat against Huddersfield

:01:48. > :01:51.last weekend was a third loss in four games for Rovers and left them

:01:52. > :01:56.three points outside the play-off places with nine games to play. Know

:01:57. > :02:01.what is going to stop Mark Patrick. Is that the crucial try? His time in

:02:02. > :02:08.charge included some memorable moments against Hull FC. What a

:02:09. > :02:20.finish. What a win. Unbelievable. And he took them to the play-offs in

:02:21. > :02:23.2013. Still going. What about that? Rovers failed to win any of their

:02:24. > :02:28.first five matches this year, and key players suffered long-term

:02:29. > :02:31.injuries. But negotiations on a new deal were under way until suddenly

:02:32. > :02:37.on Thursday night, the club announced their decision to

:02:38. > :02:45.terminate his contract. Shocking pass from John Wilkin. He should

:02:46. > :02:53.score. He will score and he will bring it down as well. Great play.

:02:54. > :03:00.Down the short side to Wilkin. Gets the pass away. He has numbers on the

:03:01. > :03:05.inside. Just will outpace them to the corner. That is a good try from

:03:06. > :03:09.Saint Helens and I'm sure Rovers will have questions about the

:03:10. > :03:14.defence on the right-hand side -- St Helens.

:03:15. > :03:21.Rovers have the numbers. Hodgson. They will touch down for their

:03:22. > :03:36.second try. Craig Hall intercepts the ball and

:03:37. > :03:39.he will go all the way to the line, and he will get it and school. That

:03:40. > :03:44.he will go all the way to the line, will be a dry. -- and score. Craig

:03:45. > :03:50.Hall gambled on the interception, and from 45 metres he runs the

:03:51. > :03:54.trying. The converted try reduced the deficit to four points at

:03:55. > :03:56.half-time at an incredible second-half performance from Rovers

:03:57. > :04:12.saw them score five unanswered tries to blow St Helens Y. -- away.

:04:13. > :04:17.Hall with the first points of the second half.

:04:18. > :04:28.And he will touch down for a hat-trick in the right-hand corner.

:04:29. > :04:42.Keating. Down the outside. Craig Hall, double from him.

:04:43. > :04:52.Travis Burns. The steps inside. All sorts of support from Eden. He's

:04:53. > :05:00.going to kick to his left? Beautiful. What a try. Craig Hall.

:05:01. > :05:05.Anything done on the right, Craig Hall can do on the left. Keating

:05:06. > :05:14.will pick up Burns, who gets the pass away. Eden will stroll in. An

:05:15. > :05:20.utterly deserved try from Greg Eden. Rovers in dreamland, it's getting

:05:21. > :05:24.better by the minute. Four days in Super League seems a long time, you

:05:25. > :05:31.get rid of the coach on the Thursday and do that. Did you see it coming?

:05:32. > :05:35.I don't think many people would have predicted that result, but it's a

:05:36. > :05:39.tough place to play. Chris Chester stepped up and got the response that

:05:40. > :05:44.everybody would have expected after losing their coach, and when they've

:05:45. > :05:48.got their tails up, and you're a bit off on the day, especially at home,

:05:49. > :05:53.and they can post points on the they gave a couple of soft tries away

:05:54. > :05:57.with the intercepts and loose play and then they got the momentum.

:05:58. > :06:01.There are a good side when on form. You have had the coaching change

:06:02. > :06:07.with the assistant taking charge. It seems to galvanise the players.

:06:08. > :06:16.There might be a blueprint there. Macro yellow we are unbeaten in

:06:17. > :06:21.their --. The players, the system, I don't think they will change their

:06:22. > :06:25.game plans, but I think a fresh approach and maybe getting to

:06:26. > :06:28.implement your own ideas and a fresh voice sometimes, that can make you

:06:29. > :06:33.realise as a group of players that somebody lost their job so you

:06:34. > :06:38.regroup and get the response and certainly they did that on Sunday.

:06:39. > :06:42.To an outsider you would think he is in there and part of the system, so

:06:43. > :06:48.why when they have become head coach does it make a difference. They have

:06:49. > :06:51.the input anyway. I think the assistance do have an input, but

:06:52. > :06:56.deep down they have their own beliefs and I imagine there will be

:06:57. > :07:00.disagreements with head coaches, and that is the way it should be, but

:07:01. > :07:05.Chris Chester has stepped up to the plate, a young, enthusiastic coach

:07:06. > :07:08.and a good result against Saint Helens. I imagine he has a few

:07:09. > :07:12.things you would like to change, some systems he might not have

:07:13. > :07:17.agreed with that Sandercock was having. They have some great players

:07:18. > :07:22.and I'm sure they are looking for a big run at the back end of the

:07:23. > :07:26.season. St Helens are inexplicable. A wonderful result against Wigan,

:07:27. > :07:30.then that result against Catalan, and that is what upset Nathan, that

:07:31. > :07:34.you can have two results like that so close together. A bit

:07:35. > :07:37.inconsistent at the minute. The Wigan performance was the

:07:38. > :07:43.performance of the season. They were brilliant that night. Richard was

:07:44. > :07:47.talking about how it's hard to back up again on the back of such a

:07:48. > :07:52.massive effort. Hull Kingston Rovers have been a few hours on the bus,

:07:53. > :08:00.Mac and take it out of your legs. That is what happened on Sunday.

:08:01. > :08:06.What Chris Chester said that, they owed Sandercock a win, but he

:08:07. > :08:13.installed sombrely. Like I said before, a fresh voice. Chris Chester

:08:14. > :08:21.has served a long apprenticeship. I think he will be able be confident

:08:22. > :08:26.about what works and doesn't. He will have some respect of the

:08:27. > :08:28.players. Once he steps up there he will have the respect from the

:08:29. > :09:03.players to respond. Leeds missing their charismatic

:09:04. > :09:05.leader, Sinfield leatherback injury. A victory for the Rhinos tonight it

:09:06. > :09:25.will send them top of the table. Made such a difference,

:09:26. > :09:29.James Webster in the month That is the big question,

:09:30. > :09:50.has he managed to stay in touch? He may well have put his route

:09:51. > :10:00.on the whitewash. Big decision

:10:01. > :10:02.for the video referee early on. Good little chip over the top

:10:03. > :10:28.by Smith. Danny wash broke things he has

:10:29. > :10:36.given Wakefield the lead. Did he manage to put the ball

:10:37. > :10:38.down? Did really well to beat Jones-Bishop

:10:39. > :11:08.to the ball. Wakefield desperate to keep Leeds

:11:09. > :11:39.out. The best in the business

:11:40. > :11:47.from close range. As soon as he got the ball, you

:11:48. > :11:54.knew what was Lovely little dummy. Much to the approval

:11:55. > :12:03.of their captain. What a try from Jones-Bishop,

:12:04. > :12:24.just before half-time. How important could

:12:25. > :12:32.that proved to be? Briscoe, feeling the fullback,

:12:33. > :12:42.but it will be a big miss for the Rhinos but a big hit for Salford

:12:43. > :12:49.next year, Ben Jones-Bishop. Wakefield back in front and Mathers

:12:50. > :13:12.stretching over. He will enjoy that

:13:13. > :13:23.against his former club. Brilliant defence,

:13:24. > :13:39.you have to say from Gilmour. Enjoying a good spell of pressure,

:13:40. > :14:01.Leeds. One of the best in the business

:14:02. > :14:07.on the high ball. First successful kick,

:14:08. > :14:31.Liam Sutcliffe. How important could

:14:32. > :14:59.that proved to be? Wakefield look

:15:00. > :15:19.for the try that may snatch victory, It is bouncing up all over the

:15:20. > :15:23.place, and into the arms of Maguire! This could win it for Leeds

:15:24. > :15:32.in dramatic fashion. We are going to have a look to

:15:33. > :15:44.see if there was a Leeds hand. It was Mathers with the pass, now

:15:45. > :15:48.did Ryan Hall get a touch on it? Another really important call

:15:49. > :15:56.for the video referee. I wonder whether Leeds

:15:57. > :16:14.will feel hard done to. The slightest touch,

:16:15. > :16:18.if there was one. A fantastic finish, frantic stuff

:16:19. > :16:23.as Wakefield look for the win. And Mavers will win it

:16:24. > :16:32.for Wakefield! Leeds wallet right at the death

:16:33. > :16:48.at Headingley against Catalan, and it looks like Wakefield have

:16:49. > :16:51.done it here against the rhinos. This will be only Wakefield's third

:16:52. > :17:05.win on this ground A new lease of life under

:17:06. > :17:10.James Webster. And Leeds missed

:17:11. > :17:14.the chance to go top. So who had to pay for dinner when

:17:15. > :17:48.you went out on Saturday night? There were quite nice to me

:17:49. > :17:51.on Saturday night. I was expecting the worst,

:17:52. > :17:54.but the game wasn't mentioned. Four games since James took over,

:17:55. > :17:58.and you haven't lost any. Would probably through

:17:59. > :18:00.a point away against Hull. We couldn't buy a win,

:18:01. > :18:01.a performance. It was not revenge,

:18:02. > :18:04.but they had embarrassed us twice this year, and put 60 points

:18:05. > :18:09.on us in the challenge cup. We really wanted to go out and put

:18:10. > :18:12.in a performance for ourselves. We hung in there and managed

:18:13. > :18:27.to come up with the goods. James said he told you guys to

:18:28. > :18:30.look up and not look down. He said, I am sick of talk

:18:31. > :18:44.of doom and gloom and relegation. From this day on,

:18:45. > :18:47.we are just looking at what is It was like a cloud had lifted,

:18:48. > :18:52.and we all went out and trained. Once you get a win, the confidence

:18:53. > :18:57.is high going into every game. You practice those situations where

:18:58. > :19:09.it is two versus one, I think Jimmy Keinhorst catches

:19:10. > :19:14.the ball, and it catches Ryan They call it like an alien tackle,

:19:15. > :19:23.trying to do two things. I think if it had gone against us,

:19:24. > :19:37.I would have been disappointed. You get the calls, and if it is

:19:38. > :19:40.not a TV game, it plays on. Particularly gutted because

:19:41. > :19:51.you had to run quite so far. Yes, I ran a fair distance, and the

:19:52. > :19:58.walk back was slow and tiring. You can see his attacking prowess,

:19:59. > :20:01.and everything is heralded around this try scoring,

:20:02. > :20:04.but Ryan Hall is one of the best The last try when I passed to Richie

:20:05. > :20:15.Owen, I was conscious of the time. Did you know what was

:20:16. > :20:26.going to happen? As the ball was played,

:20:27. > :20:28.I knew by his look. And that is just a relationship,

:20:29. > :20:31.three years of playing with him. It is no coincidence that

:20:32. > :20:34.our winning form coincided with I could just see a glint in his eye,

:20:35. > :20:40.and I thought I would hang back So you want to hang onto him

:20:41. > :20:56.for next year? James Webster maintained

:20:57. > :20:58.his unbeaten record as head coach. Let's see who else was smiling

:20:59. > :21:07.in around 19. The Wolves were at the door

:21:08. > :21:09.for Hull. The capital is calling for

:21:10. > :21:16.Sean Wayne on Wigan. Catalan Dragons were in Yorkshire

:21:17. > :21:22.to face the Bradford Bulls. Warrington Wolves king to close

:21:23. > :21:36.the gap on the top two. They were at Hull FC on Friday

:21:37. > :21:38.night. They haven't been beaten

:21:39. > :21:41.since the start of May, The youngsters took the lead

:21:42. > :21:45.at the start. Yes, Jordan Abdul came through

:21:46. > :21:52.the system at Hull. They need to start producing

:21:53. > :21:54.the players. They come onto the scene,

:21:55. > :22:11.scoring tries for fun. But Warrington are playing

:22:12. > :22:23.on form at the minute. What do you make

:22:24. > :22:24.of Matthew Russell? He has got better and better

:22:25. > :22:28.as the season has gone on. They have quite rightly used him

:22:29. > :22:30.off the bench and giving him 20 minutes here and

:22:31. > :22:33.there to get his fitness back-up. Are you surprised to see Hull taking

:22:34. > :22:45.a penalty at this point Yes, a few minutes to go, you are

:22:46. > :22:50.in a great position to put a try It probably shows a little bit

:22:51. > :22:56.of lack of belief at the moment. Wanting to come out

:22:57. > :23:15.and take a penalty of air and put Wanting to come out

:23:16. > :23:17.and take a penalty there and put This tackle here from Matip assault

:23:18. > :23:21.on Gaza Ellis, probably one of His second super league hat-trick,

:23:22. > :23:25.he has only played a handful Is it just

:23:26. > :23:31.about letting him develop? Yes, especially in a place

:23:32. > :23:35.like Hull, he has been great, and his range of finishing for such

:23:36. > :23:39.a young lad, and knowing what to do He has all of the physical

:23:40. > :23:45.attributes to really kick on. There was a question mark

:23:46. > :23:50.of offside. I think if that had been a TV game,

:23:51. > :23:55.it would have been offside. And here is another young exciting

:23:56. > :23:58.winner scoring plenty of tries They are playing really well

:23:59. > :24:12.at the minute. It will always take

:24:13. > :24:21.a few weeks to get over losing an At the minute,

:24:22. > :24:29.they are in great form. We need to get up to

:24:30. > :24:32.their level to be able to compete. There were two new faces in the

:24:33. > :24:35.Salford line-up at Huddersfield. Mason Caton-Brown made

:24:36. > :24:37.his debut after signing from London, and there was

:24:38. > :24:45.a first appearance the Kevin Locke. Here comes the man on debut,

:24:46. > :24:59.Mason Caton-Brown. He will need to play

:25:00. > :25:02.the ball quickly. They can't fail to score if they

:25:03. > :25:05.move it out of the right-hand side. If they can get it wide,

:25:06. > :25:15.they've got to score. An opportunity here for

:25:16. > :25:26.Huddersfield Giants. They go out to the left with

:25:27. > :25:30.a real chance. Now, a running chance here for

:25:31. > :25:45.Mason Caton-Brown. Mason Caton-Brown, what pace,

:25:46. > :25:56.what desire, what determination. And he has curled round

:25:57. > :26:06.underneath the posts. A late tackle on Danny Brough left

:26:07. > :26:09.the Giants in a heap and the referee Robert Hicks with no choice but to

:26:10. > :26:15.send off the Samoan international. The coach was critical afterwards

:26:16. > :26:18.of the Red Devils' approach, claiming there were guilty

:26:19. > :26:23.of several cheap shots. But they conjured up three

:26:24. > :26:29.quick tries to seal the game. It is another score for the

:26:30. > :26:47.Red Devils. That will give Salford

:26:48. > :26:53.a deserved victory. Kevin Locke was perfect with

:26:54. > :26:55.the boot, kicking six from six, and the Red Devils was finally

:26:56. > :26:59.looking like the team tipped to make It was a great debut for Locke

:27:00. > :27:15.who personally scored 16 points. Kevin Locke has got the ball away,

:27:16. > :27:18.trying to find the gap. What a score,

:27:19. > :27:50.what a Salford performance. For Huddersfield, there

:27:51. > :27:54.was a late compensation when Luke Robinson's offload through the legs

:27:55. > :27:56.fell conveniently for Larne Patrick. But it was all about Salford's

:27:57. > :27:59.new kids on the block. I felt good, so I thought I would

:28:00. > :28:02.train and try and prepare to play this week, and everyone has made me

:28:03. > :28:05.feel comfortable Five days in England,

:28:06. > :28:09.playing with my new team. It is new for me, but I was awesome,

:28:10. > :28:13.and we can't look too far ahead. We know what we need to do to

:28:14. > :28:17.get into that top eight or top We just need to focus

:28:18. > :28:21.on what we need to do Gets on a plane on Tuesday, one

:28:22. > :28:38.training session and he does that. When he settles into the side,

:28:39. > :28:44.some great touches. And once you get

:28:45. > :28:46.those combinations, And also,

:28:47. > :28:49.a big shout to Mason Caton-Brown. He highlighted the need for speed,

:28:50. > :28:52.and with Greg Johnson on the other wing, and Ben

:28:53. > :28:54.Jones-Bishop, they have brought that And they have also got

:28:55. > :29:14.Michael Dobson coming in, They do look a very tasty prospect

:29:15. > :29:19.for next season, although they are I think it will be tough

:29:20. > :29:28.for them to sneak in. It will be difficult now,

:29:29. > :29:31.but I think it will always take them How many new players did they

:29:32. > :29:35.get the start of the season? It was never going to click straight

:29:36. > :29:39.away, but the players they have signed now, a frightening prospect

:29:40. > :29:42.for next year, and I think they will I was more disappointed

:29:43. > :29:59.the players took action into their Huddersfield have been winning

:30:00. > :30:15.but not happy with their form. They probably have lacked a bit

:30:16. > :30:19.of consistency. What they achieved last

:30:20. > :30:21.year was phenomenal. League leaders

:30:22. > :30:32.and having a great season. When you are top of the league,

:30:33. > :30:35.everybody raises their game. You never get an easy run and I

:30:36. > :30:38.think Huddersfield are finding that They are still in the mix

:30:39. > :30:41.and still up there. June and July,

:30:42. > :30:45.you have got to be peaking. Do you think it is

:30:46. > :30:47.a lesson they have learned? They were pretty consistent last

:30:48. > :30:50.year but ran out of steam bit Maybe targeting a good run

:30:51. > :30:58.at the back end of the season. It wasn't a smooth start for Mattie

:30:59. > :31:14.Bowen when he joined Wigan He replaced Sam Tomkins and has been

:31:15. > :31:27.in sparkling form. I always wanted to play in the

:31:28. > :31:33.Super League. Wigan gave me a chance to come here

:31:34. > :31:38.and I took it with both hands. The club and history they have got,

:31:39. > :31:41.what better way to play in Super Whenever you put the jersey

:31:42. > :31:48.on it is history. I want to play well for the club

:31:49. > :31:52.and play well for my team-mates. What a run this is going to be

:31:53. > :32:00.and Mattie Bowen is going to go 75 It is always good to

:32:01. > :32:07.score tries like that. It was one of those moments I

:32:08. > :32:10.had to go for the intercept. If it had not come off,

:32:11. > :32:16.I would have looked silly. The line kept getting further

:32:17. > :32:19.away as I was running but it is All the way through, Mattie Bowen

:32:20. > :32:39.will win it for the Warriors. We were trying

:32:40. > :32:43.for six to eight weeks. Had our first game

:32:44. > :32:48.against Huddersfield. First few games we were

:32:49. > :32:52.trying to settle in. I played one game

:32:53. > :32:56.and then went back to Sydney. But we are starting to gel

:32:57. > :33:08.a bit more now and starting to learn the Wigan style of play

:33:09. > :33:10.and playing alongside Matty Smith. It has been slow, but hopefully

:33:11. > :33:14.it will be getting better. Mattie Bowen,

:33:19. > :33:28.at one club. But I am enjoying my time here

:33:29. > :33:47.now and looking forward to it. It has been great

:33:48. > :33:48.so far. you get asked about Sam Tomkins

:33:49. > :33:53.and on interviews like this? When he came over here,

:33:54. > :33:59.it has been great for the club. When I first came here,

:34:00. > :34:02.I wished him all the best. I was playing

:34:03. > :34:06.for the Warriors over there. I wanted to come here

:34:07. > :34:09.and play my own game. Whatever Sam brought to the field,

:34:10. > :34:11.was something different. Hopefully I can get better

:34:12. > :34:18.and went more games for Wigan If Wigan want me,

:34:19. > :34:36.I am happy to stay. As I said,

:34:37. > :34:38.I am talking and see what we come up The club have been great to me and

:34:39. > :34:47.helped me out when ever they can. If you can get your family settled

:34:48. > :34:56.in, it makes my job easier. They are enjoying it and I

:34:57. > :35:12.and happy. We should apologise, it seems

:35:13. > :35:15.to be a show for fullbacks. He admits it took a

:35:16. > :35:18.while to settle in, but what do you Coming from North Queensland and to

:35:19. > :35:26.Wigan in December and January is tough and you will see the best of

:35:27. > :35:46.him when the ground has softened up. he has been Wigan's pin-up boy.

:35:47. > :35:50.Wigan are very structured in their attack. The ability Sam Tomkins had,

:35:51. > :35:53.Mattie Bowen has had as well. How difficult is he to play against

:35:54. > :36:00.commonly has an incredible sidestep? He reminds me of Brent Webb,

:36:01. > :36:03.similar stature and type of player, Your fullback nowadays needs to be

:36:04. > :36:11.able to pass and create opportunities

:36:12. > :36:13.and play like an extra halfback. To replace Sam Tomkins,

:36:14. > :36:16.he has stepped up to the plate. Slow start, but Wigan travelling

:36:17. > :36:18.around the world Wigan were in London on Saturday

:36:19. > :36:24.afternoon. Their first visit here,

:36:25. > :36:35.no prizes for guessing how this one, but do you think Wigan needed

:36:36. > :36:38.this, they put out a full side? They have players who can

:36:39. > :36:49.do things like that. What I like

:36:50. > :36:52.about Wigan is the young players Stepping up and not looking out

:36:53. > :36:58.of place. It is massive for their future

:36:59. > :37:04.and the club. Shaun Wane has come back

:37:05. > :37:22.and work is way back into the team. Scoring a hat-trick is not a bad way

:37:23. > :37:26.to get yourself back into the team. You played

:37:27. > :37:28.and beat Wigan a couple of weeks Week in and week out,

:37:29. > :37:33.Wigan are a tough side. No matter what side they put out,

:37:34. > :37:49.a couple of key players and international players missing, but

:37:50. > :37:52.some of the young boys are ready and There will be better

:37:53. > :37:56.for the experience. Putting a full strength side out

:37:57. > :38:00.against London, they wanted to do a Look at the defence,

:38:01. > :38:08.they have not given up because they are professionals, but they look

:38:09. > :38:10.like they don't believe any more? We have a couple of our young lads

:38:11. > :38:18.down there, Alex Minns and Foster. Very good players

:38:19. > :38:21.and it will be great for them to get Super League experience but to be

:38:22. > :38:24.on the end of heavy defeats most But they are trying and no

:38:25. > :38:31.Rugby League player goes out But Wigan have some great players

:38:32. > :38:42.and London are not up to Some

:38:43. > :38:45.of it looked a little bit too easy? Some soft tries,

:38:46. > :38:49.but some long-range tries that were Wigan take

:38:50. > :39:04.on Castleford with a semifinal place Widnes have a chance

:39:05. > :39:08.of reaching the play-offs but they Three- year-old Anya, this little

:39:09. > :39:32.girl has been battling a rare form of cancer and leads out the team

:39:33. > :39:36.with her hero, Patrick Garvan who pounds. They ended a run of five

:39:37. > :39:40.games without a win with a virtuoso For Castleford,

:39:41. > :39:43.there was a timely return to winning ways last week and the Tigers have

:39:44. > :39:46.lost both matches since reaching the Challenge Cup semifinal and

:39:47. > :40:36.they will face Widnes next month. Castleford have been sensational

:40:37. > :40:39.as an attacking force. Daryl Clark, one of the players

:40:40. > :40:44.of the season so far. Michael Shenton is through,

:40:45. > :40:52.he has support inside him. Oliver Holmes will score

:40:53. > :40:59.another Castleford tried. What at start

:41:00. > :41:03.to this game for the Tigers. Michael Shenton was in the clear

:41:04. > :41:10.and there was only one result. Widnes desperate to get

:41:11. > :41:21.into this game. John Clark, that will relieve

:41:22. > :41:30.the pressure a little. It was a good kick

:41:31. > :41:34.and it will be picked up by Dixon Daryl Clark will go from one

:41:35. > :41:45.try-line to the other in the space Well,

:41:46. > :41:59.they are absolutely running riot. Three tries in a little over ten

:42:00. > :42:02.minutes at the start of this game. They are laying down a marker ahead

:42:03. > :42:20.of the Challenge Cup semifinal. You feel Widnes really

:42:21. > :42:22.do have to score next. That is a great pass from

:42:23. > :42:29.Kevin Brown. Finally, Paddy Flynn puts

:42:30. > :42:40.some points on the board. Kevin Brown involved

:42:41. > :43:06.in everything Widnes do. Slowly getting back

:43:07. > :43:08.into this game after the brilliant Widnes are right back in this

:43:09. > :43:14.game from absolutely nowhere. Not sure

:43:15. > :43:42.the two coaches would agree with the On loan from Hull for the rest

:43:43. > :44:17.of the season, Mark Snead heading for Hull FC

:44:18. > :44:22.in 2015. Terrific,

:44:23. > :44:43.he will power his way over. They just won't go away,

:44:44. > :45:01.the Widnes Vikings. Handbrake with the dummy that

:45:02. > :45:15.caught Jamie Ellis out. They are on their feet here

:45:16. > :45:23.in Widnes to celebrate. He has had two tries

:45:24. > :45:32.in five minutes. Phil Bentham, the referee here,

:45:33. > :45:35.is going to have a word I think I think it has been ruled out

:45:36. > :45:55.for offside all the way back What a big moment that

:45:56. > :46:15.could prove to be. Tickle and Lloyd White,

:46:16. > :46:18.a huge tackle. That could be a matchwinner

:46:19. > :46:43.from Clark. It looks like he may have won it

:46:44. > :46:46.for the Tigers. If he is going elsewhere next year,

:46:47. > :46:50.and the word is it may well be The ball dropped again, and

:46:51. > :47:15.Castleford have got numbers here. Well, massive overlap

:47:16. > :47:24.on this left-hand side, but It is a stroll for the captain, his

:47:25. > :47:33.second try, and that should be that. They are great to watch with ball

:47:34. > :47:49.in hand, Castleford, this year. The closing stages,

:47:50. > :48:00.and that ball did go backwards. Is this going to be

:48:01. > :48:09.a wonderful hat-trick? It has been some performance

:48:10. > :48:14.by Castleford, Surely he has to go on

:48:15. > :48:29.the Four Nations tour with England. Widnes looking for

:48:30. > :48:38.a little consolation at the end. And they may get it,

:48:39. > :48:43.with Chris Dean in for the try. Just give the try, there was

:48:44. > :48:58.nothing wrong with that at all. We nearly went

:48:59. > :49:03.the whole game without able the They have a lot of work to do

:49:04. > :49:10.before the big rematch, the semifinal, a place at Wembley

:49:11. > :49:15.at stake next month. What did you make

:49:16. > :50:11.of the Arvan try being ruled out? I don't understand why he

:50:12. > :50:16.didn't put his flag up. I don't no worries he doesn't put

:50:17. > :50:20.his flag up at the time, but he It is a long way to run

:50:21. > :50:34.to get pulled back. A big call, but Widnes's form,

:50:35. > :50:37.they may be lacking in confidence, because things haven't gone

:50:38. > :50:52.their way for awhile. They have really good firepower

:50:53. > :50:54.on Thursday night, A bit patchy, but some great

:50:55. > :51:05.attacking players, but backing it The breakaway tries change

:51:06. > :51:18.the context of the game. I think young players will always

:51:19. > :51:30.make mistakes and have poor games, and you have to stick with them,

:51:31. > :51:37.and he is showing it now. He is probably the quickest

:51:38. > :51:40.in their team, and for a hooker to He has been one of the best

:51:41. > :51:47.players in the team this year. He has had a little bit

:51:48. > :51:49.of time to settle in and work out what type of player he

:51:50. > :52:04.is, and he looks the prospect. We expect him to be

:52:05. > :52:06.going to Warrington. He was already really well thought

:52:07. > :52:16.of when I was at Castleford 2011. He was a young lad then, that

:52:17. > :52:19.made his debut later that year. You can see

:52:20. > :52:21.his frame has filled out, and at Does this have a bearing

:52:22. > :52:32.on the semifinal in a month? Psychologically, you play a team

:52:33. > :52:44.four weeks in advance and win. It was pretty close, and that try

:52:45. > :52:46.could have changed the game, but scoring 40 points, they will be

:52:47. > :52:50.pretty confident of doing the job. But Widnes will want to get revenge,

:52:51. > :52:55.so it makes it interesting. There were nine points from safety

:52:56. > :53:00.at the start of the weekend. Catalan were their opponents,

:53:01. > :53:04.and a massive start. They were in it right up to

:53:05. > :53:07.the death, disappointed with some They looked a lot more

:53:08. > :53:25.structured and solid in defence. He has been outstanding,

:53:26. > :53:33.you can't give him any open space. Under Jimmy Lawes, they have had

:53:34. > :53:35.some really tough training sessions, and Danny Williams

:53:36. > :53:58.on loan made an immediate impact. You know him well. What kind of

:53:59. > :54:03.coach will he be? I get on great with Jimmy, and that is how well he

:54:04. > :54:08.did with the Carnegie boys, as a rugby union coach and having a

:54:09. > :54:15.fantastic season, but he is a rugby league man, Jimmy. He wanted to get

:54:16. > :54:22.back in and Bradford is his club. I think he will do a good job there.

:54:23. > :54:26.He is coming in late, but that will change fortunes there. Anything you

:54:27. > :54:31.can do about confidence, because they got themselves in the lead.

:54:32. > :54:38.That's probably not getting into the lead enough and they have had a lot

:54:39. > :54:54.of stuff going on in the background with the players, and who can blame

:54:55. > :54:58.them for not performing. He had to massive moments in this game.

:54:59. > :55:07.Getting the float away and make up with a matchwinner. A couple of

:55:08. > :55:14.months to settle in, and one of the better back rows in the competition.

:55:15. > :55:32.You think it is game, set and match, but great play. We finally got the

:55:33. > :55:41.win for this. Catalan have struggled to win away from home and it has

:55:42. > :55:51.been coming. We nicked it at the death, and the merry-go-round of

:55:52. > :56:05.Super League, and he does it often from the kicks. He has probably been

:56:06. > :56:08.the form player for Catalan. . Bradford remaining in the bottom

:56:09. > :56:14.two, so let's get confirmation of the standings in the super league

:56:15. > :56:19.table. The top to both lost at Saint Helens stay clear of Leeds. Wooden

:56:20. > :56:39.and Castleford are just two points behind the leaders. There are

:56:40. > :56:46.matches coming up on five live sports extra on Friday, and in the

:56:47. > :56:54.North a nationwide repeat on Tuesday lunchtime. You can catch it all week

:56:55. > :57:06.on the eye player. There seems to be a transport or to every single day.

:57:07. > :57:19.Is a smart signing. Player six, seven, and one. Clubs like

:57:20. > :57:22.Castleford, they can cover lots of different positions. Possibly the

:57:23. > :57:28.most eye-catching is buying not one, but two halfbacks with Mark Sneed

:57:29. > :57:33.and Leon Pryce together, how will they work? I think they will work

:57:34. > :57:39.well. Leon Pryce has been around a long time and is a smart player. He

:57:40. > :57:46.can use his experience and bring along Mark Sneed who is new to the

:57:47. > :57:53.game. The press situation is such a demanding club. Big expectations.

:57:54. > :57:56.There are two halfbacks already there so it will be interesting to

:57:57. > :58:00.see what happens there. Warrington have bought in Ashton Sims, but they

:58:01. > :58:09.have tied up Chris Hill on a long-term contract. He is one of

:58:10. > :58:12.those who goes under the radar a little bit, but a really important

:58:13. > :58:18.long-term signing, and Ashton Sims as well, I played against him with

:58:19. > :58:24.the Australian schoolboys and he was as Big than his years now. He is an

:58:25. > :58:28.awesome beast when he wants to be. He has got brothers like that as

:58:29. > :58:36.well. He is a big signing for Warrington and with the exciting new

:58:37. > :58:40.signings scummy and they will be exciting. Another great utility

:58:41. > :58:47.player who can cover the backline, so a bit of pressure on the lambs.

:58:48. > :58:50.Thanks ever so much to Danny and Richard for their company tonight.

:58:51. > :58:53.We will see you at the same time next week. For now, goodbye.
