Thornhill Trojans are off the bottom on points difference, despite losing 26-24 to Thatto Heath Crusaders. Joel Gibson was sent off for alleged punching on 67 minutes and they had Casey Johnson sin-binned for persistent offending three minutes later, when they led 24-12. Thatto Heath drew level and Johnson was sent off immediately on his return for allegedly running in. His team- mate George Woodcock was also red-carded (alleged foul and abusive language), along with an opponent, but Thatto received the penalty and former Wakefield Trinity player Bobbie Goulding booted the match-winner.

Nick Mitchell (2), Will Gledhill and Matthew Tebb scored Trojans’ tries. Gibson (3) and Woodcock added goals.
