Perhaps it's because you don't live in an area that has a strong history on the game.

They always travel to support their county (I guess because there's nothing else to do on a saturday down there beyond support that new club in the lesser code)

The RFU site has Cheshire with 9 points. Yorkshire are top on 10. I assume this is a mistake.
Cornwall won 50-24 - so I think they go to Twickenham.

You chose to kick 18 penalties rather than try to go to Twickenham? :-)

Yes, I have watched the stream. But that is not on the RFU site.

Final score at Birkenhead Park: Cheshire 61 Northumberland 3. 

I hope the Cheshire organisers lay-on a coach to Twickenham for the final, I'm well up for a day on the drink.

Sounds about right in terms of points as the only other southern side that went unbeaten too was Kent and they had a 1 point BP win over Hants and a walkover from Surrey pulling out.

Mind you if Kent had made it, it would have made a good point about how crap this new system is whereby a team can play just 1 game and get straight to Twickenham.

I think the issue is Cheshire clearly have 10 points having won both their games scoring over 50 points and with a massively superior For & Against compared to Yorkshire yet somehow the RFU site has Cheshire down as 9 points and Yorkshire in the final.

Still think the format is completely stupid. Not saying Cheshire wouldn't have beat Yorkshire or Lancashire as they've gone with 99% Caldy and Sale Fc players, but they are getting to the final by virtue of the luck of the fixtures and playing the 2 weaker teams in the group.

But as a Cheshire resident..good luck in the final!

My guess here is that when Cheshire completed the Match Card yesterday they forgot to put the number of Tries scored hence no Try BP.

RFU website has Lancashire Women 34 - 4 Northumberland Women.

They must have got 2 conversions without scoring tries.

(it was actually 34-5) Competitions Department on top form again.......
