Match Report


Featherstone go six points clear

Featherstone ended Halifax\'s eight-match winning run and completed the Co-operative Championship double over them with a 26-16 victory at the Shay to pull six points clear at the top of the table.

The home side forced four goal-line drop-outs as they dominated the early play but they lacked the ability to turn the pressure into points and trailed 14-0 after Rovers scored tries through Liam Welham, Jamie Field and Jesse Joe Parker.

Luke Branighan pulled a try back for the home side on the stroke of half-time but substitute Ross Divorty crossed five minutes into the second half and Welham grabbed his second to put Rovers 26-6 in front.

Paul White and Ben Black scored late tries for Halifax to salvage a losing bonus point.
