Week 20 Predictions (11/04/26)

[Locked Out]

Back to the serious stuff and a tough few games left for most.

Bramley Phoenix v Bridlington
Halifax v Halifax Vandals
Ossett v Old Otliensians
Ripon v Huddersfield Laund Hill
Roundhegians v Bradford & Bingley
Northallerton v Baildon

[Locked Out]

Big Apple v Fishermen's Friends: Despite a long journey I think Brid will want this more and desperate to be firmly in the promotion hunt. BP look relatively clear of the drop zone and may want to play a bit though. Brid +7

Fax of life v Hooligans: No love lost here for bragging rights as well as survival. This the visitors will edge it in a no holds barred arm wrestle. Vandals -7

Wakey Wind ups v Champions elect: Can't see Ots putting a foot wrong here and getting another five pointer. OOs +7

Rugrats v Laundromats: A lot of variables at play here - home advantage and fired up kids supplemented by the odd Fijian if they make it for more than one week at a time, versus a lot of grunt and grind. Not sure if HLH are desperate to push for a technically achievable promotion spot? Ripon -7

Snoozers v Bed & Breakfast: A must win for the hosts, so will be pulling out all stops. Hegians +7

Old Farmers v Ca$h Cow$: A must win for the hosts here too, to get away from the drop zone. Think Baildon have gone off the boils too. North +7

[Crowding the bar]

BP v Brid- Bramley have had some good results this season and brids OTR form has had the odd dip, having said that Brid know they need every win they can and they should edge it here. Brid -7

Fax v HV- local derby should be a good one, think vandals will take it. HV +7

Ossett v OOs- one game closer to otley being crowned champions, let's just hope the weathers nice for the ossett boys to enjoy a commiserating drink after. OOs +7

Ripon v HLH- HLH away form not been good enough this season and what has ultimately hampered their promotion chances, Ripon have had some good results at home so with that mix a close home win. Ripon -7

Hegians v B&B- practically out of hegians hands after last weeks defeat on the coast, all they can do is keep winning and with Bradfords drubbing at the hands of otley last week hegians should capitalise. Hegians +7

Northallerton v baildon- win for north and they are safe and will condemn fax back to y3, baildon same as HLH been inconsistent this season and with that north shoukd get over the line. Northallerton -7

[The Tank]

No real surprises in store this week, end of season run in looks straight forward.

Bramley Phoenix v Bridlington - Brid +7  Promotion in their sights, no chance of a slip up here, 5 points a must
Halifax v Halifax Vandals - Vandals +7   As long as the Vans get the journey out of their legs
Ossett v Old Otliensians - OO +7   5 points should be a stroll
Ripon v Huddersfield Laund Hill - Ripon -7   If the crowd plays their role, should just get over the line
Roundhegians v Bradford & Bingley - Hegian's +7   The bees are now in free fall as their regular 7 is broken
Northallerton v Baildon - North +7      Home advantage and superior forwards will make it easy
