I have heard this evening that The RFL have told YJARL that they are to allow teams to play BARLA cup games without any penalty, so this information might not be current any longer

Well, it's not worked out for us as our proposed league opponents aren't in the cup. Age group Secretary tried to pair us with stanningley but since they've been knocked out we've no choice but to use our only postponement. Nice one YJARL.

My experience of contacting the RFL over a dispute with YJARL has been less than positive - but good luck!

Waterhead beat warriors 21-18 in a pretty scrappy affair.

Well acording to YJRL onTwitter last night - if you're still in the cup & you lose this weekend then you have to use your postponement , but if you win then you'll have to use it in the next round !
Pathetic !

We've got to use it this coming weekend as no one else in our division is left in the cup.

There's only 2 teams still not in the cup in Div 1 - so going off what they're saying , then everyone else will have to use there's up !

The problem for us comes as we're not playing a team in the cup so therefore have to use ours this weekend and if we get through have to throw our league game 0-18 when we play in the 1/4s. The games with 2 barla cup teams will get the opportunity to delay their postponement til the following round should they get through. Either way the governing bodies need to sort the shambles out.

Yeah ..I see what you mean now . Absolutely ridiculous - like you say , if you've got to throw a game 18-0 then that's making their own league a farce .
You'd think they'd be fully behind a YJRL team winning the national cup , not punishing them for it !
