Most sports do not make great viewing when a match is one sided, but rugby league can be as bad as it gets. With this being 2nd versus 7th in the league table it looked like it might be a reasonable match, but it couldn’t be further from the truth. Pilkingtons were pathetic in every department and Thornhill didn’t have to do a lot to win this with ease. It is these sort of ‘non contest’ matches that are helping the sport to die a slow death and it was certainly not worth spending close on 8 hours driving on the M25 and M1 to see such a poor product.
