Round 6 - and all to play for

Nottingham can consider themselves hard done by to leave Jersey with nothing for their efforts (that probably sums up their season).
After conceding an early try, they were superb for the rest of the half and it was only down to some desperate defending that kept the Reds ahead until a fantastic break by the Jersey 9 led to the second try on the stroke of HT.
The Reds came out with purpose in the second half and built an unassailable lead before Nottingham showed great spirit to come at them again scoring one of the breakaway tries of the season in the process.
Jersey were worthy winners, but the score did flatter

Is there anywhere the match from Bedford is being streamed this afternoon? Couldn't find it on BBC Sounds or their online sports.

FT elsewhere in Beds - Amps 14 Pirates 23 (2 tries to 3), the men from Kernow make it 6/6 to ensure they're top seeds.

Well, it's looking like Bedford and Doncaster are contriving to get the score that will satisfy both teams - a home win for Bedford maintaining their home record,band two losing bonus points for Doncaster to ensure progression to the semi-finals.

Sounds like defending was optional at Goldington Rd.

Due on the last flight on Thu, fog cancellation meant he couldn’t get another flight until 4ish on match-day. He was due at 5.10 but landed half an hour late. Straight to club & while warming up is advised by ref that he will have to take charge as a result of ref’s back injury. He’s at the upper end of the spectrum for high-level refs (late 40s) & hadn’t reffed a game this season, but he did excellently…
